What’s that smell? It’s the Rogue One, with notes of coffee, almond and chicory. This tea might be scruffy looking, but it’s the hero you’ve been waiting for to save your cup. We’re all fine here, how are you?
Ingredients: Black tea, Pu-Erh, coffee, chicory, cocoa beans, and almond pieces, jasmine, calendula, and sunflower petals, natural flavours.
From my very first Amoda box. I wasn’t really looking for a new tea subscription, but a couple of TeaTubers I follow had codes for 40% off your first box, so I figured I would give it a try!
This one sounded good, with the coffee combined with cocoa and almond, but really all I’m tasting is the black tea and the coffee/chicory. Maybe a little bit of extra earthiness from the puerh. I feel like it really needs those sweeter flavors to make it interesting and balance out the toasty and acidic notes. As-is, it’s sort of just watered down coffee ha ha.

Adventaggedon Day Twenty – 6/6
Very, very much wanted to like this tea. It’s such a cool reference – not just because of Star Wars but because of the way the phrase “Nerfherder” has expanded as nerd slang since Star Wars. I knew I wasn’t going to like it as soon as I smelled the dry leaf though, and that was confirmed with my first sips. It just had such an awful taste of skunky gas station coffee. Really cheap and muddy with an unpleasant sourness.
There’s also jasmine tea in the blend, not that you can taste it at all with the coffee drowning it out – but if you could taste it how weird would that be with the coffee? The inclusion of it just completely baffles me. What could the blender have possibly been trying to acheive? It’s not even like there’s any low hanging explanation for it from a fandom side, either…
