14 Tasting Notes

Wild Orange Blossom from Teavana
80

Surprisingly orangetastic. I’m not a fan of herbals usually, but this was pretty rockin’. Like warm orange juice, but in a good way.

Organic Spring Jasmine from Mighty Leaf Tea
85

Fantastically strong jasmine flavour. If you only like a hint of jasmine, I’d look somewhere else.

Cream of Earl Grey (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
Indian Summer from DAVIDsTEA
65

Sweet! Too sweet, actually. I like it, but it nearly tastes like heated juice. Literally not my cup of tea.

Buddha's Blend from DAVIDsTEA
100

This tea is fantastic. Simultaneously mellow and flavourful, a great afternoon or evening tea. (Or drink it in the morning, what am I, your mother?) One of my favourites.

Assam Banaspaty (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
87

A nice strong black tea. Beware of over-steeping, becomes astringent if steeped over, say, 5 minutes. Either way, a great way to start the day.

Earl Grey from Higgins & Burke
92

I’ve had plenty of Earl Greys, and this one has been my favourite insofar. I drink it as often as I can. For me it seems to have the perfect blend of very strong tea and aromatic bergamot.

Organic Earl Grey from Mighty Leaf Tea
68

A pretty bog-standard Earl Grey. It’s delicious (as any Earl Grey is) but nothing to write home about. I’d drink this as readily as any other Earl Grey.

Double Bergamot Earl Grey from Stash Tea Company
69

It smells absolutely fantastic, but by and large it’s just another Earl Grey. The flavour isn’t much different than Stash’s standard Earl Grey, but when when you brew it there’s the added benefit of making your immediate surroundings smell wonderful.

Green Rooibos - Sweet African Red from Numi Organic Tea
41

Not my favourite. It might smell like rooibos, but it’s rather bland by comparison. Tastes somewhat like grass, but not in a bad way. I’d drink it again if it was the only thing available quite happily, but I don’t love it.

Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea
100

Love it! I love everything about it, except the price. I can’t track it down outside of a Mighty Leaf sampler pack anywhere other than online, and then the price gets… a tad ridiculous.

Rooibos Chai from Gathering Place
64

Honestly, don’t drink it hot. It makes quite a nice iced tea, but if you try to drink it before it cools, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

It’s around 70% chai-esque spices and 30% rooibos.

Coffee Pu'erh from DAVIDsTEA
83

A perfect blend of Pu’erh and coffee. If you dig coffee and want to try tea, this is where to start.

Cinnamon Rooibos Chai from DAVIDsTEA
96

Makes an amazing iced tea that needs no additives for flavour. I love it. (Also great hot during the winter.)
