Oatmeal Raisin Cookie from Della Terra Teas
95

Thank you Jackie T for this very generous sample!

I have to start by saying that this is one of my daughter’s favorite teas. She moved it into her own tea basket so that other people (like her mother) will keep their tea lovin’ mitts off of it. She even took a cup of this to school to convince her friend that tea is much cooler than coffee. Ah, to be twelve again. So usually I do not drink this tea, but I realized I don’t have a review of it and wanted to remedy that.

This really does taste like an oatmeal raisin cookie! All of the flavors are there: oatmeal, raisin, cinnamon, brown sugar, even a spicy hint of nutmeg. It is delicious and very satisfying when my sweet tooth starts talking to me. This tea also resteeps well. The flavors aren’t as strong, but they’re all still present. I love it when a flavored tea can hold up to a second infusion.

Since this is obviously going to stay on our pantry shelf I will be buying two ounces of it with my next Della Terra order. Maybe then my daughter will willing share it. Maybe.

Thanks! It is a lot of fun to share tea with her. I think some of our most memorable conversations to date have been during our morning tea time. :)

My daughter was twelve when she started begging me to “let’s have good tea.” We started with Harney sachets and moved on to loose leaf. She does not love a wide variety of teas, but she really really has to have the ones she loves!

@Kamyria – I love that she likes Silver Needle. My girl’s taste definitely run towards the dessert trees with some fruity greens thrown in for fun.

@ashmanra – My daughter doesn’t like a wide variety either, but the last time we ran out of one of her teas I had to pinky promise to reorder it. :)

Bio

I am a stay-at-home mom. In my life before kids I was a photographer, and I still tend to see the world through a camera lens. This is equally thrilling and frustrating to my loved ones.

My Rating System:

100-95 = Teas I actively seek out and keep in my pantry. If you are a guest in my home chances are I will offer you one or all of these teas. Also, if/when these teas are discontinued I openly mourn their loss.

94-85 = Teas I truly like, often have in my pantry, and sometimes restock. These are my variety-is-the-spice-of-life teas.

84-75 = They’re good teas and I enjoy drinking them on occasion.

74-65 = These teas are ok, but not really my thing.

64-55 = meh.

54-45 = I will if I have no other option.

44 and below = Coffee, please.
