Wow the smell of this is amazing! Its tastes very much like the cinnamon heart candies. Yumm! I tried to re-steep this but it was not as good the first time even though I left it for 8 minutes.

I have been trying to limit my caffeine consumption and as a result I have not had this tea for about a month and a half. This morning I thought I would treat myself and take it in my travel mug to work. I prepared it as I usually do and then I remembered that someone suggested adding a bit of brown sugar…..all I can say is wow, it is just so much more tasty! I did not think that was possible but it is :)

Secret Weapon from DAVIDsTEA
100

Everytime I get a hint of a sore throat I drink this tea and all symptoms disappear. I don’t know if its the tea or me believing its the tea (mind over matter) but whatever it is, I am not going to question its ‘powers’. Plus the tea smells and tastes great :)

Yellow Dragon from DAVIDsTEA

I was excited about this tea – lemon, mint and oolong – my three favorite things :) I find the aroma while its steeping slightly floral which is weird. Before posting my thoughts on this tea I figured I should try it a few times as I found I was not getting much mint flavor but rather just lemon and a bit of oolong. I have tried different steeping times but it does not seem to matter as the tea is pretty consistent in the lack of mint taste. So my overall thought is the tea is okay but not exactly what I was expecting and likely when my 26g bag runs out I will not re-buy.

Banana Oolong (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
96

Very tasty. Reminds me of banana bread (the kind without nuts).

Cranberry Pear from DAVIDsTEA
99

I am always leary of black teas, they usually end up too bitter for me, even if I only steep them for a short period of time but not this one. It was great – very fruity, a little tart but tasty just the same.

Hot Toboggan (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
67

I was intrigued by this tea as it sounded very similar to Mom’s Apple Pie (which I love), so I figured I would get a bag of this to take home. Unfortunately I think I oversteeped it as the cinnamon is overpouring everything. I am not getting the caramel apple taste that I was hoping for. I will try for a shorter steeping time and see how that goes.

Pumpkin Chai from DAVIDsTEA

Yummm! Pumpkin Chai! I forgot about you in the back of my cupboard. I only had a little bit left and was saving it and now I hear that its coming back at the end of the month – yah!! A nice blend of spice and sweetness. There is just something so comforting about pumpkin, love this tea :)

Banana Daiquiri from DAVIDsTEA
57
I am trying to go through the remainder of my summers teas before the fall ones come out from Davids Tea :) I had a jug of this iced yesterday and it was alright, I keep expecting it to have more of a banana taste but it is rather bland. Out of the 4 summer teas I have, this one is my least favorite.
Raspberry Nectar (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
55

So this tea doesn’t taste like raspberries, but the predominant tastes are the lemongrass and honeybush. Not that those tastes are a bad thing, I still enjoyed the tea, but when the name and description imply raspberries it is kind of disappointing. Maybe David’s Tea should adjust the recipe for this tea to bring out the raspberry taste more.

Pink Flamingo from DAVIDsTEA
86

I just love citrusy teas (if that is a word) and this one is definitely citrusy :) I’ve had this a few times on its own and its quite tasty and I also mix it with the skinny tea to make the skinny tea more palatable.

Coco Chai Rooibos from DAVIDsTEA
96
Sweet Dreams (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
91

Very very similar to Mother’s Little Helper, maybe sweeter. Definitely did the trick and made me very sleepy but I still prefer Mother’s Little Helper.

Citron Oolong from DAVIDsTEA
69
Detox from DAVIDsTEA
61

So one of my coworkers gave me this tea as she did not like it. I’m not one to turn down free Davids tea so I took it off her hands for her :) I decided to finally try it before going to bed last night. I’ve had this tea for a couple of months and everytime I go to try some I am intimadated by the smell which reminds of halls cough drops – must be the juniper berries. I made sure to only steep this for 4 minutes as I didn’t want it to be too strong. The tea was not bad but not something I can see myself craving or restocking unless I can see uber health benefits. The taste was way more mellower than the smell but I still mostly tasted the juniper berries.

North African Mint (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
98

(Backlogging) I had this yesterday morning. I love how this tea is sweet and minty.

Mulberry Magic from DAVIDsTEA
91
Long Life Oolong from DAVIDsTEA
96
Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble from DAVIDsTEA
88

I forgot about this tea while it was steeping and it steeped wayyyy too long. The flavor was mostly cinnamon at that point, usually if I steep it about 3 minutes I will get more of the strawberry and rhubarb flavor.

Dreamsicle from DAVIDsTEA

(backlogging) Had this tea yesterday and I am sad that I didn’t buy a tin of it as it is so yummy. I will need a nice orange flavored tea to replace this when it when it is all gone.

Bio

I’m a biologist that’s recently got hooked on tea, specifically David’s Tea. Every time I go there I leave with more tea even though I have lots at home! Its probably a good thing that the closest store is 2 hours away :)
