Toasted Nut Brulee Oolong from Teavana
34

Taken Plain.
It’s not toasty…
It’s not really nutty…
and it tastes nothing like a brulee.
This might be the worst named tea ever… wait I found it!
The only hint of flavors that resemble the name are in the initial wash of flavor. All of the middle and after taste is of fruit and spice which really reminds me of the old blend of Sweet Oolong revolution. It even has that same mildly bitter after taste. This tea is nice if a fun different way until the after taste hits and then I don’t like the flavor at all. The tail end of the flavor reminds me of when I was a kid and wanted to know what nutmeg by itself tastes like and my mouth got all drink and I felt like I needed to drink something.
So I’m going to go drink something else…

Yeah, I saw that one last time I was in the store and was all “gimmegimme” until I looked at the ingredients and smelled it… WTH? Coconut? Pineapple? Not what I was expecting.

I agree denisend. I think a tea should taste like the name implies no matter how great it tastes.
