Oolong Owl drank The Perfect Pear by Della Terra Teas

1271 tasting notes

Oooh, pear tea! I got this in a free sample weekend deal. Man, Della Terra sales are super tempting, especially when they got new teas!

I love the fun appearance with the golden sugar crystals and pearly gold sugar balls, mixed with the black tea leaves!

Taste wise, is a juicy – either drippy ripe or baked pear that is sweet with a black tea base. The pear is quite delicate. Simple and tasty! I was expecting something more fun, since the appearance is cool and recent tasting of Della Terra’s more unique teas (corn!)
This be a good tea for a new tea drinker, or a gift for one of those old school black tea drinkers.

I’m a tea blogger – The Oolong Owl
www.OolongOwl.com – I do tea reviews, obsessively photograph teas with mischievous crocheted Owls and get tea drunk. I am also a crochet and knitting designer at Awkward Soul Designs.

To contact me for reviews, check out details at OolongOwl.com/about or email me at [email protected]

I was raised on floral oolongs and green teas, mostly “beauty” teas. Early on as a kid, I can guzzle an entire pot of tea (or two) at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant.
These days I like adventurous and interesting tea blends. I’m fearless in trying new teas! I’m into oolong, pu’erh, white, green, black, guayusa, mate and herbals. I’m not into red rooibos but I keep buying it anyway.

The tea brand that got me started into loose leaf teas was DAVIDsTea. I used to live in Vancouver Canada and had access to their shop, however that is now limited since I moved to southern California.

However, the perks of living in the US is ultra cheap, fast shipping! Since then, my tea stash insanely expanded.

Other stuff I’m into that sneaks into my tea notes: Brazilian jiu-jitsu, metal music, drawing, painting, cooking, photography and nail polish.

BTW, my Steepster cupboard is not even close to accurate and I track my teas on a spreadsheet. Last update 573 Teas – August 2015.
