Coffee Pu'erh from DAVIDsTEA
7

This tea taught me that just because it smells good doesn’t mean it taste good. I bought 50g of it online, and I wish I didn’t because now it’s just sitting there.
I’m a coffee drinker and I bought Coffee Pu’erh to see if I could find coffee’s equivalent in tea form. Sadly this is not it.
It smells like chocolate and coffee, so good. But once it’s brewed the taste just doesn’t work. It tastes odd… I can’t really explain it. Not quite like coffee, maybe like a bad hot chocolate with a caffeine aftertaste.
I tried it both hot and cold, added milk and creamer, tried steeping it longer/shorter and still didn’t like it. I guess this tea just isn’t for me!

I was thinking about trying that! Hopefully someone is interested in it.

Bio

With a british mother you would think I would love tea, but beside the occasional drink when I was sick or some mint tea I was never a big tea drinker.

That all changed when my friend introduced to me to David’s Tea and the idea of drinking tea cold! Now my obsession with tea is beginning and I’m here to find and drink new and tasty tea’s!
