14 Tasting Notes

Santa's Secret from DAVIDsTEA
94

Santa’s Secret + Vanilla agave + splash of milk = best tea concoction on the day of the second snow fall!
I love love love this tea so glad it will be coming back this winter.
Perfect amount of peppermint and tastes like a good candy cane

Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait from DAVIDsTEA
96

I am drinking this tea out of my new fox mugtail cup and I think it is the combo of the tea and the cup that make me love it so much!
I love hibiscus, it makes teas so tart and refreshing. So I love this one! It is tart and sweet you can definitely taste the strawberry. I added a little bit of agave to compensate for the hibiscus but it is perfect!
The yogurt pieces make little floats in the drink, but it is worth it. The yogurt makes it super creamy..YUM!

Bear Trap from DAVIDsTEA
88

Iced = YUM!!
I could drink this stuff like juice <3
That is all!

Perfect Pear from DAVIDsTEA
84

I didn’t think I would actually like this tea because I’ve had a bad experience with pear flavors involving vodka…not good! But I decided to give it a go and made this one iced and it was so tasty. It had a tangy taste that I was not expecting but was quite good. Really refreshing and deserving of a chance from everyone!

Tropicalia from DAVIDsTEA
99

If you like piña colada and getting caught in the rain!!!
This tea is probably my favourite of the summer collection. It’s so yummy. I made it as an iced tea and found that because of the candy hearts I don’t have to add that much agave. I fully intend on making piña coladas out of this tea and also am going to buy about a kilo of it. This is the new love of my life :)

Ever Green (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
80

The dry leaf smell of this tea is very strong but do not let it scare you because this tea is really good. Also, the thought of mustard seed in a tea seems odd but it’s not.
I really like this one. I don’t think it makes my top 20 favourites but I definitely think I will drink it every once and a while.
This tea tastes like green tea at first then you can taste the sweetness of the blueberries and cranberries and then it finishes with the sea lettuce as the final note. I find this tea to be a light taste and light liquor.

Kiwi's Big Adventure from DAVIDsTEA
85

KIWI’S BIG ADVENTURE! Could there be a better name for tea? I think not!
When the tea is steeped it smells like those Lip Smackers I used to have, the one that was Kiwi obviously. So yummy.
I made this one as an iced tea and it was DELICIOUS!!
You can definitely taste the kiwi. This will be an amazing summer drink. I can picture it now, despite all the cloudy weather. Me, this tea iced, a good book and a beach towel.. YAY!

Bai Hao Yin Zhen from DAVIDsTEA
97

I am a white tea lover so obviously I would love this tea. This is by far my favourite traditional tea from Davids Tea.
The dry leaves are full and furry. Its smells great. The steeped liquor is very light and it has a light scent. I would definitely call this a refreshing yet relaxing tea. It had a sweet flavour to it, which was nice.
Only downside, it’s a bit on the expensive side :( I will still be purchasing a lot of this tea. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

Ice Cream Cake from DAVIDsTEA
72

Honestly, who thought of making tea taste like cake?! They are brilliant!!!
This tea smells like nail polish or it’s remover when you stick your face into the big tin, I ended up coughing for a while, so don’t do that.
I can’t believe the ingredients, freeze-dried ice cream thats crazy! Anyways Ice Cream Cake itself is not eaten hot so obvious you have to drink it iced.
I had this as an iced soy latte and it’s by far my favourite of the cake collection! JESUS MURPHY it’s good. Just like ice cream cake or a milkshake. So yummy. Nice and sweet. If you don’t like sweet it’s probably not for you. So ignore the weird smell of the dry tea and drink this as an iced latte and be thankful it’s only 15 calories and not the over 100 calories that come in the cake itself!!!

The Earl of Lemon from DAVIDsTEA
76

This was the newest David’s Tea to their collection.
I decided to try it iced.
The dry smell is mostly lemon. You can definitely see the green and white teas.
After it was steeped this was a refreshing iced tea. It was the perfect amount lemon and it was not overpowering at all. I didn’t taste much of an Earl Grey flavour, but I did think that it was similar to iced teas you can prebuy (Nestea or Liptons). Still one of the good ones and I will go back for some on a hot summer day….soon.

Mulberry Magic from DAVIDsTEA
98

I heard about all the amazing benefits of mulberry leaves and wanted to try this tea. Not to mention the dry smell so delicious.
The 3 times I first tried this tea I over steeped it and it was so gross and earthy, so naturally I hated it. But someone made it for me with very specific instructions and now I can’t get enough of this tea!
The hot tea taste is sweet with nutty notes and it is a creamy sort of liquor and taste. I added a bit of agave and a splash of milk (which brings out the creaminess) and it was PERFECT!
I must stock up before I can’t get it anymore!

Birthday Cake from DAVIDsTEA
74

The tea of the month for April, who would have thought they would all be about cakes!
Dry this tea smells amazing. Definitely a cake smell, but there were a bit of lemon notes to it.
I had this as a latte. I have to admit I was so excited to try it but it did live up to what I thought it would be. It smelled so amazing steeped I thought there was cake in my cup. It wasn’t a very strong taste, and Rooibos was the most dominant taste of the tea. There were still hints of cake but not much.
Honestly, I am more excited for Chocolate Cake, I hope it lives up to my expectations.
This is still a yummy tea and I will probably still drink it often. :)

Strawberry Ginger from DAVIDsTEA
72

On the outside this tea scared me. Ginger and hibiscus are not my friends. I had to try it though, couldn’t resist the temptation of a new tea.
Hot: It tastes very gingery. I was not a huge fan.
Cold: With agave to balance out the ginger and hibiscus this tea was AMAZING iced!!!! It was sweet and tasted of strawberries but also had a hint of a ginger taste. I would definitely recommend this iced over hot.

Chocolate Chili Chai from DAVIDsTEA
88

YUM!!!
I made this into a latte today. It smells amazing to begin with. As a latte it tastes like warm spicy hot chocolate, which is so good! I was worried because I don’t like many of the chocolate teas but this is amazing and the amount of chocolate is just enough. I will definitely have to go back to get the 100g tin.
