When I ordered this I was not aware it was decaffeinated – I guess I missed that. Thats okay though I need more decaf for my late night tea cravings! The smell both in the can and after steeped is A M A Z I N G!
It smells like cake batter!
Strangely enough the very fist sip tastes of all things FISHY! What the??
Its also a tad bitter. I think next time I will only steep for 4 minutes and see how it turns out.
Proceeding sips not nearly as fishy – to the point that maybe I am no longer tasting that at all.
Honestly however, I am not enjoying this at all.
Going to add some sweetened condensed milk.
Okay thats better. Not a TON better but better.
Well now it actually does taste like cake batter.
Let it cool down some to see if this helps.
I just don’t care for it as much as I would like to.
Its slightly bitter, without the creamer I was not getting much of the intended flavor.
It looks beautiful in the bags, smells divine but it has a bitter after taste, the flavor is not that great, still a bit fishy, and leaves the mouth dry.
I really wanted to love this.
Bummer.
Will try again another time and update tasting notes.
