drank Caramel Cream Mate by Fusion Teas
4843 tasting notes

I tried this for the first time today, and I am trying to determine how I feel about it. I definitely enjoy the caramel aspect of this, and the roasted yerba mate is a good platform for the caramel flavor. I think it’s the chicory for me… it’s a little heavy on the chicory. It would be so much better with a little less chicory.

I am going to try this again in a day or two and see if I can improve on the flavors with the addition of sweetener and milk…

I totally agree with your feeling on the amount of Chicory on this one!

Yes, the chicory kills it! I find that cutting it half and half with caramel rooibos (I use Fusion’s) and adding vanilla soymilk helps blunt the chicory a bit while upping the caramel quotient.

I am obsessed with tea!

I am a co-founder of the SororiTEA Sisters:

I no longer write for the SororiTea Sisters but I am still the admin for the blog.

The reason I’m no longer writing for SororiTea Sisters is because I am now the Mad Tea Artist for 52Teas:

I’ll still be posting occasional reviews on teas here on Steepster, mostly backlogged reviews because I’m way behind on getting reviews posted. That’s why I’m keeping two accounts active at the current time – so that I can get those backlogged reviews posted.

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.

I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination, which is why I was very excited to be the Mad Tea Artist of 52Teas!
