DaisyChubb drank Gold Rush (organic) by DAVIDsTEA

Oooh I am not with everyone on my opinion of this “tea”.
I sipped at 5 minutes, it tasted like I had poured hot water on a bag of sweetened coconut. I let it steep for a full 10 minutes and it tasted the exact same.
I ate a mulberry after, ugh, just not good. Not for me. Do not want.

So next time I go to swap, someone gets a very expensive bag of mulberries haha.

Normally I don’t agree with returning teas, but with the cost of this one I’d totally support taking it back and getting something you like instead.

Seriously ? This is so disappointing ! I’ve been waiting to try it since he came and I planned to but a BIG pot just because I was sure it was a dream tea..Maybe If I like coconut very much it won’t be that bad ?
I think I’ll need to taste it before buying it..thanks for the warning :)

You never know Melsss, eveyone else seems to love it so you might too!

@Tina – it’s okay, I was smart(ish?) and only got a 20g bag so I only have enough for one or two cups at the moment. If I had paid more than 10bucks even I think I would have taken it back for sure!

Profile

Bio

You can call me Daisy.

I’m a 24 year old (not so budding) thespian – just moved to the Maritimes from the Saskatchewan Prairies. I’m way too polite, aka Proud to be a Canadian. I love it here by the water – it must remind me of tea or something ;)

My favourite tea companies are DavidsTea and Verdant Tea. They please my palette in different ways – and I love them both for it.

My rating system is as follows:
95-100: I will stock it as soon as I can, if I haven’t already! Permanent collection worthy.

86-95: I would stock this tea if I could, but my collection is just too full to warrant it. But it is that good.

76-85: This is a tasty tea and I will have many cups and share with friends, but won’t go out of my way to keep it stocked.

50-75: It was alright! It was… alright! Not horrible, but I might not re-steep.

25-50: Ew. But I will finish the cup.

1-25: Please no, I want to dump it.

The Steepster community is my safe place. Thank you to all my tea friends!
