drank Caramel Corn by DAVIDsTEA
618 tasting notes

The dry blend smells exactly like caramel corn or maybe like the buttered popcorn jellybeans (one of my least favorites). For some reason, I wasn’t expecting it to be so accurate! Once it’s been steeped, it smells like brown sugar, cinnamon and popcorn.

Sipping… this blend starts off with a rather bland fruity base — quite similar to Forever Nuts. The rest of the sip is rather uneventful until the end when I get a lovely caramel corn flavor – faint popcorn with a strong and gooey caramel.

While this is a very creative blend and the flavor is as close to caramel corn as you can get, it’s a little too artificial for me. I also wish that it had a different base mixture because I really am thinking about Forever Nuts throughout this cup. Forever Nuts isn’t a bad tea, but it’s not really what I want with my caramel corn.
