One of the lovely samples AmandaStory sent me.
This is my first tea from 52Teas and I’ve been meaning to try them for quite a while now. Especially since they are local.
The pear and the green tea both come through in this tea together. I’m not getting any amaretto which is a bit disappointing but there is definitely a strong ‘Cream’ note throughout the cup that reminds me of heavy cream. Yum, I would say that this is probably not a tea for someone who doesn’t like green tea (I love green tea myself) because the green tea base comes through pretty strong in this one. I can’t think of another tea I’ve tried that has a true cream note as this one does. I don’t know that this one would be a repurchase for me only because I have quite a few other pear teas that I love and have a bit more going on. If this was reblended and the amaretto was discernable it would definitely make this tea stand out more.

Your first 52teas! And they are local! I don’t even know if you can visit 52teas? Or you can only buy online?
I think you can only buy online but I’ve been meaning to ask Anne if I can just pick them up in person. Well once Covid isn’t a worry anymore.
We’re an online company only – but Lexie – we can work something out – meet somewhere to get the tea if you’re in Vancouver? We also head to Portland about once a week or so – if you’re in Vancouver. But we’ll need to arrange for such a thing when the scare of covid is over because my SO is one in the very risky category. But we can definitely work something out – just contact me via our contact page when you’re ready to do something like that.
@Tea-Sipper – we don’t have a brick & mortar yet – we hope to eventually have one somewhere in Portland. I figure for our limited edition type of thing – 52Teas would fit in perfectly with the weirdness that is Portland. Vancouver might be a bit too normal for us.
My dream is to have a tea & treats kind of place that would offer our teas with treats that match some of our unique flavors. :)
I actually live in Vancouver (: My family and I are also in the high-risk category as well so I totally understand. Hope you guys are staying safe.
