Raritea drank Read My Lips by DAVIDsTEA

I used 1.25 David’s Tea Scoops for my Aqua-Ovo tea tumbler

Primary flavour is mint. Faint chocolate taste closer to the end of the sip which is mostly overpowered by the mint. Cool minty feel on the aftertaste. Black tea taste is difficult to detect. The overall taste is too smooth (likely from the vanilla) for what I would expect a spicy chocolate mint tea to taste like.

Oh lord, this is the problem I had with the 3 DT I drank : unable to detect the tea base…I was hoping this one to be different as it is one of their best sellers

I have also found that with quite a few of their teas. I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one! I really feel that tea flavourings should compliment their base, not hide them.
