106 Tasting Notes

I really enjoyed this one although I spilt over half of it and broke my mug! Thankfully Davids replaced it for me! Tastes exactly like fresh blueberries. I added a little milk and sugar, which really helped the blueberry pop and gave it a nice creaminess.

Flavors: Blueberry, Creamy

drank Carrot Cupcake by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

I got this in one of my advent calendars. I will give it a thumbs up for really tasting like a carrot cupcake! However, my dislikes of this one is the pungent ginger that steps in. Also I believe the licorice root is giving it almost a medicinal taste (reminds me of Organic Throat Rescue). I finished the cup but I don’t think I’ll be purchasing more.

Flavors: Apple, Carrot, Cinnamon, Ginger, Licorice

I didn’t think I’d enjoy this one, but it’s really nice… sweet and fruity, and creamy. I taste the apple and blackberry leaves which gives it the fruity note. And it’s got to be the marigolds or something that’s also giving a floral note. It’s very refreshing to drink. This one might be worth it to purchase 50gs.

Flavors: Apple, Black Currant, Blackberry, Creamy

drank Cotton Candy by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

In my mind, this tea sounded delicious, but I was disappointed by it. I got it in one of my advent calendars… I’m trying to try all the new ones that I’ve never tried because I want to put in an order here before the end of January and use my coupons. I found it plain but sweet. I didn’t taste the cotton candy. At least I can say I tried it!

Flavors: Rooibos, Sugar, Sweet

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 8 min or more 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

drank Goji Green by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

I found this one to just be okay. For a green tea it’s alright and fruity. I still am a bigger fan of David’s Sweet Almond Green. Green teas aren’t my favourite, so I am a little biased towards green teas!

Flavors: Berry, Black Currant, Goji, Green

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 8 min or more 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

drank Jumpy Monkey by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

I really thought I would like this one because of the coffee and the cacao, but I didn’t find either to be too present. I did add a little milk and sugar… maybe next time I’ll try it without anything first. I think I also need to steep longer… although I steeped for about 15 minutes. Right now my score will be low, as I found my first cup to be quite flavourless…I’ve got 45 g left of this tea so I’ll keep everyone updated!

Flavors: Bitter, Earth

Preparation

For a cleansing tea this one is surprisingly good! There is a very sharp lemon flavor either coming from the lemons themselves or the lemon peels. I really do enjoy it, and the added benefits of the ingredients helps!

Flavors: Lemon, Lemon Zest

drank Frozen Raspberry by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

I absolutely love this one. The smell on it’s own is intoxicating enough. Smells exactly like a fresh raspberry bush. It’s tart and fruity, but somehow the yogurt pieces are giving it a nice creaminess. Can’t wait to try this cold.

Flavors: Apple, Black Currant, Raspberry, Yogurt

drank Peanut Butter Cup by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

I didn’t find this one to be peanut buttery at all. In fact I found it kind of flavourless. I got it in David’s tops of 2018, I don’t think I’ll be buying it again. I steeped for about 20 minutes too and still not getting much. It is light tho and almost fruity. Once it cooled tho, the almonds do give sort of a peanut butter taste. Up from 70 to 75 for the score.

Flavors: Almond, Butter, Fruity

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 8 min or more 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

drank Banana Dream pie by DUplicate

Drinking this tea hot, it tends to be a light flavor of coconut. Once it started to cool, wow did all the flavors really pop!
I love coconut, so I really enjoyed this one. The only negative I’ve got about this tea is that once brewed it is quite oily.

Flavors: Butter, Coconut, Creamy, Toasted, White Chocolate

Bio

Was just introduced to loose leaf tea within the last year. Never thought i’d ever get used to life without coffee! I’ve really been enjoying all the new flavours and different types of teas.. so much to learn and taste!
I usually drink my teas with a little milk and sugar… unless it is a herbal infusion or the ingredients don’t mix well with milk.
Some of my favourites so far are savoury black teas, and I’m always a sucker for anything involving mints or fruits.

90-100: Cupboard staple – will buy when I run out

75-90: I’ll drink what I have, may restock when out

55-75: I’ll drink it, but probably won’t buy it

0-55: Might finish it, might feed it to the sink
