Lindsey drank Mom's Apple Pie by DAVIDsTEA

180 tasting notes

My Fall tea order came in today! This one is just like I remember from last year. The dry leaf smells amazing; its tart apple, a touch of sweetness, and some cinnamon. The smell continues during steeping, mimicking hot apple cider. This is one of those teas that drives your coworkers crazy with the aroma while it steeps :-)

Taste is much more subtle than the scent, in my opinion, and you can tell it’s a green tea – albeit it a very light one, without vegetal notes. Which suits me juuuuust fine.

A tea fanatic who works in the tech sector, I purchase most of my tea online. The numerical ratings are to help me remember which teas I should re-order. 85+ means it’s worth a re-purchase. (If I ever get through all of the new ones I want to try!)

It’s pretty obvious from my tealog, but I have special place in my heart for flavored blacks and good rooibos. I also love oolongs, but apparently have expensive taste in that area, so I don’t purchase them too often. Learning to appreciate green tea, but not a fan of overly vegetal ones. Whites make a great iced tea.

I love to try new teas and will sample most anything once. Although I’ll usually pass on Earl Grey or super floral blends.

I drink my tea with no additions, unless otherwise noted in the review.
