13 Tasting Notes
Definitely a tea I’ll always go back to if I don’t know what I’m in the mood to have. A delicious red rooibos, which is not something you’ll normally hear me saying but it’s for a sure a tea that makes me ‘proud’ to be Canadian. It just simply tastes Canadian and the little coloured maple leaf candies just add to the feel of this tea so much. Practically feels like you’re drinking maple syrup.
This was the first chai tea I had ever encountered that really drew me in. My attraction to anything pumpkin was originally what had pulled me to purchase this tea and I’m so thankful that I did. Definitely a favourite in my books, a fall favourite that I will continue to pull out year after year or even in those desperate spring months where I’m craving pumpkin pie and thanksgiving feel.
While being thoroughly impressed with the previous sample’s in my ever-so-beautiful David’s Tea Advent Calendar, this specific rendition disappointed me. Despite my distaste for anything salted carmel, I steeped this with an open mind, hoping to be blown away similarly to my reactions of Buttered Rum and Chocolate Rocket. However, no such pleasure satisfied my taste buds, the bitterness of my mug turned me away and I drained out the majority of the contents that I originally brewed. Not impressed David, not impressed.
