ashleyelizabeth drank Vanilla Plantation by Silk Road

193 tasting notes

Another review of this tea mentioned that they smelled stewed tomatoes while drinking this, and while I found the exact same thing with another one of silk road’s teas (Lychee Fruit), I am luckily not finding it with this one.

This is a nice creamy vanilla tea. It is good, but not as good as their London fog which I am sadly out of so this will have to do. I think I will send this rest of this off with the tea box I am expecting in the next few weeks so that someone else can enjoy this as I am making another order and getting me some more London fog, Japanese Sour Cherry and Sublime!

Bio

I didn’t drink a lot of tea growing up, just the red rose my nana would make me with about 3 teaspoons of sugar added to it. I started getting into loose leaf tea about a decade ago when I visited our local tea house and tried Rooibos for the first time, though I only drank it on occasion. I didn’t get serious about it until David’s tea came to town. I was on a diet and wanted something I could drink without sugar that had a lot of flavours to choose from.

I prefer black teas, but oolong and green come in a close second. White and guayusa are in the middle, while mate, rooibos and herbals are at the bottom of my list.

Likes: banana, jasmine, pumpkin, lychee, blueberry, chocolate
Dislikes: orange, ginger, rose, hibiscus, butterscotch, honeybush

My non-tea related interests are music, camping, poker, softball, snowboarding, biology and animals. I have 2 dogs and they are my whole life.
