Lala drank Blood Orange Pu'erh by DAVIDsTEA

871 tasting notes

This is a loose leaf tea.

Appearance of dry tea: particle of tea, lemon myrtle visible.
Smell of dry tea: tart citrus smell, moreso grapefruit than blood orange. Makes me only think slightly of a blood orange when I smell it.
Appearance of liquor: dark purple, opaque.
Taste of liquor: heavy, thick liquid. A tangy citrus taste. There is a sharp aftertaste that lingers. Does not taste like, nor remind of blood oranges at all.

Overall, although not bad, I was disappointed in the flavour of this tea, I will most likely not purchase this tea again.

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
