10 Tasting Notes

Toasted Marshmallow from DAVIDsTEA
83

I had this at the perfect timing, once I sat down to drink this, I automatically smelt the bonfire my neighbors were currently having in there backyard.

I love the smell of this tea (before steeping). I DID have an issue in getting out actual tea leaves, as the package is mostly filled with marshmallows. But I still drank it of course!. I had steeped it for 5 minutes, and It tasted amazing!
It’s sweet, but not to sweet. The perfect cold day/night tea!

Almond Biscotti from Teaopia
99

This has to be my favorite chocolate tea. I’m now beating myself up for not buying more when Teaopia went out of business!
At first I steeped this tea for too long, and hated it, but little under a month ago I tried it again and have been obsessed with it…This is now my favorite tea taking the place of the apple pie tea from Teaopia!

Tazo® Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks
97

This was my first drink i’ve had at Starbucks..Seeing as i’m not a coffee drinker I went for the tea.
I’ve been unable to make chai taste good at home so I tend to only drink it by buying it made, and this was perfect. I’ve become obsessed with this drink know.
It’s not overally spiced like some chai tea’s i’ve had, its a happy medium.

Birthday Cake from DAVIDsTEA
82

I actually drank this tea on my birthday! I bought it the day before and saved myself from tasting it until my birthday.
I can’t really taste the tea in this, but I’ve actually never tasted just Rooibos so I’m not completely sure. This tea is actually quite good. I don’t taste or see the ice cream bits that it say it has, but the sprinkles are plenty. The smell in intoxicating, both in the dry tea and in the cup. I’ve had some issues with the steep time though, but am trying to figure that one out.
This is plenty sweet though so it’s going to be one of my “special teas”

Love Spell from Teaopia
67

This is one of the 3 teas I was able to get at my last trip to Teaopia (Theere going out of business and I had planned on getting 6 and sadly was unable to get them all)
I already have/had a favorite flavored green tea, but this is now quite a favorite green tea!
The smell is really nice, and the cute little hearts makes the tea even more special.
The flavor first hits you with green tea, and then the papaya comes out as an after taste, I cant really taste much else other then the papaya, but that is ok with me.
On another note, this was the first tea that I reused tea leaves with, and I was quite happy to see that it had the same taste as the first steep.

Love Spell from Teaopia
67
Superfruit Red Goji & Raspberry from Lipton
83

This was my first flavored green tea that I ever tasted. Know I havn’t had more then 2 flavored green tea’s but this is my favorite flavored green tea. This is my favorite bagged tea. I had a friend smell this and he made the comment that it smells like a fruit roll up, which it does! there’s even a taste of a fruit roll up. You are unable to taste the green tea in this one though, I have yet to decided if I like that or not. Still my fav. baged tea <3

Green Tea Pomegranate from Yogi Tea
15

I’ve found one really great tasting berry green tea and had some of this tea in my cupboard so decided to give it a try.
Bad idea, I put this into a travel mug and went out, and tasted it early on (3 minutes) tasted like no taste, then (7 minutes) little more taste but not enough, and then sadly I forgot the tea for 5 or so minutes longer and it came out strong, I was unable to taste the green tea. I was largely disappointed.

Clarity: Blueberry Ginseng with Gingko from Tetley
14

I Was really looking forward to trying this tea, I adore blueberries. But I was largely disapointed. The smell I must say is amazing so I was really excited to try this. But after it was steeped (I’ve tried 3 diffrent steeping times) No blueberry taste came out. I was largely disapointed

Baked Apple Pie from Teaopia
100

This was the first oolong tea I ever tasted and I am beyond in love with it. I was given this as a taste tester at the store and it had been steeping for quite awhile at the store which is the way I prefer this tea-steeped for awhile. The smell is so enticing also.
