8 Tasting Notes

Chocolate Chili Chai from DAVIDsTEA
Comforting from Aveda
100

I have bought this tea for years now. It is actually the tea that got me hooked on tea. I tried it as well at an Aveda appointment years ago and was so surprised and obsessed with the flavors that I bought I box. I now own a bottle of the looseleaf version and each cup is as good as the last. I hate licorice candy or licorice flavored anything but the licorice in this tea is what makes it so addicting. It’s adds a great sweetness that tastes earthy instead of artificial. But my favorite part is the addicting aftertaste in your mouth after a sip. Just YUM

Jolly Jellybean from DAVIDsTEA
33

Also didn’t receive any jelly beans in my sample bag. Didn’t seem to have all that much flavor to me but the flavor it did have was nice a fruity. Wouldn’t buy it.

Youthberry Wild Orange Blossom Tea Blend from Teavana
21

really don’t think there is any tea in here. Tastes like warm fruit punch. I think it might be better iced but I don’t care for it.

My Morning Mate from Teavana
62

I’m undecided on this tea. I like the flavor sometimes but it’s a little bit odd. It’s sort of chocolaty and nutty and has a strange orangey flavor. I love it for mornings because of the caffeine kick but I guess I just don’t love the flavor.

Samurai Chai Mate & White Ayurvedic Chai Blend from Teavana
84

I’m a HUGE chai fan and this is a great chai mix. It’s spicy and sweet with a huge depth of flavors. It has some citrus notes, peppery hit and a burst a cinnamon. When I first made this tea I brewed for recommended time and found it very weak. Maybe I just like my teas strong but I let the tea brew for a long while and enjoyed it much more. I add a bit a sugar because I think it helps bring out the flavors.

Peach Tranquility from Teavana
88

I LOVE this tea. It has a light, yummy peach flavor with a hint of citrus and chamomile. The dry tea looks and smells amazing and when steeped it smells just as wonderful. It has a natural sweetness but I still add a touch of a sugar to enhance the peachy flavor. I love it mixed with Teavana’s jasmine dragon pearls.

Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls from Teavana
80

This is a lovely green tea. It is very smooth and has very strong floral notes so you have to love jasmine. It has a slight natural sweetness and I prefer it without sweetener. It is also a great tea for mixing. I love it mixed with Teavana’s peach tranquility.
