I think this tea has definitely become better over the past few weeks. The cheesecake flavor is no longer a note that sticks out, but is now melded with the other components of the tea. This tea also tastes wonderful as a tea latte with italian cream creamer added. This is just the thing I needed tonight to (hopefully) lull myself into a nice, deep sleep.

I haven’t seen many teas with fig as an additive, but it sounds great—especially with fall coming on.

mpierce87 drank Cran-Fig Cheesecake by Ovation Teas - Custom Blend

1015 tasting notes

I got my custom blend from Ovation teas today! It smells awesome – so sweet and complex. This is definitely a dessert tea! It really tastes like a fig cheesecake, with a slight tartness from the cranberries which serves to make sure this tea isn’t overly sweet. Even my picky about tea husband said “Wow!” and when I asked for a sip (I had made us a mug to share) he said “this isn’t all mine? I don’t want to share!”

I know others don’t usually rate their own blends, but since I don’t believe anyone can purchase my blend (like you can at Adagio), I will be rating it!

I laughed when reading what your hubby said. I sometimes wish my husband drank tea, but, perhaps not. I like having my tea all to myself. :)

My wife loves tea, but luckily we have very different tastes. Well, lucky for my tea, not so lucky for my wallet ;)

I think it’s fine in this case to rate your own blend since its a custom blend that others can recreate based on the listed ingredients. I’m dying to see how everyone’s blends came out and their reviews so I know what other combinations worked out well.

Based on my experience with this blend, I’ll definitely be doing it again.
