David's Darjeeling from DAVIDsTEA
87

Ok I had to have this today just to MAKE SURE that this isn’t the same tea as DavidsTea Second Flush Darjeeling. And it’s not. It’s much lighter and doesn’t taste so much of dank woods and mushrooms.

I think I prefer this one more. Too bad you can’t buy it anymore. Unless they renamed it as the Himalayan blend? I tweeted them to ask – will see if I get an answer! Haha

I probably should have just asked when I was in store earlier today but they were so busy that when it was my turn I just wanted to get my stuff and go. BUT I DID GET 100g COCOMINT CREAM! (Also 30g of Decaf Earl Grey for late nights, and 30g of the Earls Garden so I can compare it to Adagio’s Tardis/Shati’s Raspberry Earl Grey.)

Update: I just found out from DavidsTea twitter account that this is now called Himalayan Blend. So. Mystery Solved. Will update my cupboard etc.

Bio

Tea: I just started drinking loose tea earlier this year and once I started I had to get more and more and try ALL THE TEAS. So far it seems that I like simple oolongs, greens and rooibos teas, and that black teas are where I go crazy with fancy flavoured blends.

Me: I’m a geek, animal lover, new mom, and bookworm. I like Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Game of Thrones, pen&paper RPG’s, online RPG’s, video games, silly internet memes, puzzles and a bunch of others things!

Ratings:
1-50: Bleh.
51-64: It’s ok.
65-75: It’s good.
76-85: It’s very good. (Buy 1oz+)
86-100: Amazing. (ALWAYS re-stock)
