Vanilla Oolong from DAVIDsTEA

Made for me in the new DavidsTea store in St. John’s. I did not see how much tea they used.

YUCK.

Maybe the water was too hot. All I got was burnt leaf, fake vanilla and something distantly sharp and bitter. If the vanilla flavouring had been a little less metallic (yes, metallic) I might have brought some home and made it myself. But this one was a real disappointment for me.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels the same about this tea.

Bio

Writer and tea fiend. Author of DELUDED YOUR SAILORS, SKY WAVES, DOUBLE-BLIND, and THE SHADOW SIDE OF GRACE.

I prefer straight teas but will try almost anything … so long as it’s not tainted with hibiscus. I loathe hibiscus.

Oolongs and blacks are my favourites.
