15 Tasting Notes

Coffee Chai (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
73

I was so happy to see this new chai on the website. I HAD to buy this one! Two things I like so much: chai tea and coffee !
The cardamom is really the stronger spice in this blend with cinnamon in close second. I can taste coffee but it’s subtle, more of an aftertaste…But it’s there. The tea base is a little bit weak, maybe it’s my fault, I will try to put more tea or steep it longer to see the difference next time.
Its less sugary than pumpkin chai (for an example) I quite enjoy that!

I like it, its not my favorite chai but i really like it.

Cocoa Canela from DAVIDsTEA
95

I was very exited when I saw this blend of Cinnamon and cocoa because I LOVE them together. And even better, it’s a maté (witch is great with chocolate)

Cinnamon is strong and fresh but not too spicy and overwhelming.
The cocoa is still there but less proeminent, smooth and delicious: it’s really a great balance between the two.
Its not sugary, a little sweet, rich and also earthy because of the maté.
I decided to drink it bare without sugar or milk and its perfect that way.

Luscious Watermelon from DAVIDsTEA
80

It’s really good

I tried this one iced and frankly, I was not expecting to like it (I’m not a fan of iced tea and even less of fruity tisanes/herbal teas)

It’s so fresh and sweet, really smells like watermelon… Even taste like a
juicy watermelon. So refreshing in the summer.

My two kids loved it (2 and 4 years old) even whitout any sugar in it.

Chocolate Rocket from DAVIDsTEA
93
Secret Weapon from DAVIDsTEA
63

It is one of my first white tea. A friend came back from the shop et gave me 15g of this tea. (I’m always happy to try new teas!)
The dry leaves smells very nutty, almost exactly like peanut butter.
Once steeped, the smell of the cocoa nib become more proeminant and the tea smells wierdly like freshly baked chocolate cake. It’s mild and sweet. Taste like almond with some fruits in the aftertaste. I can’t find any licorice in the smell nor the taste.
It’s a nice tea for the morning when I need something milder than my usual black tea (and it make me want to eat some peanut butter toast with it !)

Not my favorite but I don’t hate it either.

Quangzhou Milk Oolong from DAVIDsTEA
98

So sweet, so good…. so expensive too… so it make me sad to see the bottom of the bag this morning :(

This tea is very unusual, i just love it !
Its hard to describe, green and spinash-y and at the same time so smooth and creamy like milk….and buttery too ! I can pick some of the orchid floral flavor . Every sip I take is a little bit different, sometimes its very green and floral, sometimes very milky and sweet. There’s a lot of layer of taste going on here ; It is so tasty and at the same time so delicate!

I’m going to resteep this all day long :)

Sleepytime from Celestial Seasonings
55

Today i felt very sick and nauseous so not in the mood for any fancy tea. I wanted something to feel better before a little nap on a rainy day.

It was one of the herbal tea that my grandmother always had in her cupboard, so it reminds me of her very much. Nothing special about this tea, taste like it should : mint and chamomile . Its really soothing and really helped for my nausea.

I suggest to add some honey.

Apres Ski (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
3

Ewww, that is disguting !
I almost never say that, but this tea is really really wierd (and bad)
The smell is really like rotten fruits and garbage… even steeped this tea smell really bad!
Its hard to tell how it taste… i can’t taste any cinnamon, orange or figs . Makes me think of some bad smelling bitter rootbeer .
I just took 2 sip and wasted the rest.

First time I drink this tea and last time too!

Creme Caramel Rooibos from DAVIDsTEA
44

I’m happy that a friend gave me some of this tea because I would not want to pay for this.
After tasting different rooibos tea, i just realised i’m not much of a fan of rooibos in general …the woodsy sent and taste are not my thing at all.

So, crème caramel roobois…. It do not taste caramel enough for my taste (and for my expectations) The rooibos taste is really empowering.
I’ve added a splash of milk and a little bit of sugar so I get a bit more of that caramel taste that I wanted so much from this tea .

I don’t hate it but its not my thing i guess …
Love Tea #7 from DAVIDsTEA
86

Its the first time I try this tea . The smell in the bag is definitely chocolate with a hint of strawberry. I can’t really find the floral smell of the roses but it’s ok. I expected a chocolate taste but really it taste like strawberry and fruity with dark chocolate in the background. I can’t find any rose in the taste too. There is some bitterness in the tea, maybe I should steep it less next time or add some milk to balance that.
Overall this tea is intense, sweet, romantic and girly .

Toasted Walnut from DAVIDsTEA
99

This is one of my favourite tea ! I’m not the biggest fan of green tea but i’m absolutely in love with this one. The balance in this tea is incredible; It’s sweet, coconut-y, there is a little bit of bitterness that I like from the green tea with an subtle aftertaste of walnuts.
It smells like freshed baked cookies. So comforting and delicious, it’s the perfect tea for cold days!
I need to get a 100g tin of this .

Lady Grey from Twinings
93

I just love that tea so much. My favorite bagged tea .
It is a bergamot black tea with orangey/lemony and fruit-loop flavor.
It’s my to-go tea for breakfeast… this is the kind of tea that makes me really happy.

I always drink it with my usual stevia and milk.
