whosbradpitt drank Mint Everest (Organic) by DAVIDsTEA

259 tasting notes

This was a lovely surprise win for me. I expected just another mint tea, but it’s richer, with some depth going on.

The mint is more forward than the other flavors. Aside from the color, I wouldn’t have even guessed a black tea base. But the aftertaste of ginger and the lingering peppery flavor are what’s really selling me here. I’m sad this one is gone because I want to play with it more.

Great at buying tea, okay at drinking tea, awful at timely reviews. Drawn to fruit, floral, spice, smoke, and flavored teas in general; prefer those that stand well without milk or sweetener. Black is fine, green is better, and red rooibos is trash.

My ratings are for me, so I don’t accidentally buy something that sounds amazing but I’ve already tried and disliked. I struggle a bit with wanting to be “fair” to a tea that other people would probably like, but then my system won’t work!

90-100 A: loved it; would make this a permanent member of my stash
80-89 B: tasty; would pick it up again
70-79 C: good; could grab with a good deal or to try in a different style
60-69 D: okay; would keep in a set but probably would not repurchase on its own
1-59 F: various shades of bad; would not purchase; closer to 1 means may not even drink again if offered.
