Well what can I say?

This is definitely my favorite tea ever. I love the light green rooibos taste with the strong ginger. I steep it for about 10 minutes (I enjoy it this way). I also think the spices help in balancing out the flavors. It’s amazing and I need to buy 500g worth.

So this is pretty good. But the oolong is not recognizable. Really pointless to waste oolong on this as you cannot taste it at all; it just tastes like chai. Now don’t get me wrong, it is good (even though the cinnamon overpowers everything else), it is tasty. I prefer it plain (no milk or sugar — it is already pretty sweet).

Had I known Teavana has a minimum amount that you have to purchase, I wouldn’t have bought this. Luckily my mom loves this tea, because I don’t think I could finish it all. Oh and I had asked for the minimum amount (50 g) and the employee put 64g in the bag. He then asked me if that was okay. What was I supposed to do, ask him to put 14g back? This is just another reason why I prefer DT to Teavana.

I didn’t really like this. I can’t explain why. It didn’t taste like caramel or… well… it didn’t taste like anything really. Some milk and sugar saved it from being a total disaster.

My sister bought this and I took a few sips from her cup.

I’m loving the peppermint and the fact that the chamomile is not too powerful. Also, it’s great that there’s valerian root in here and that you don’t taste it (because frankly, I love valerian but hate the taste). My sister said that it helped her sleep 3 nights in a row. Must buy.

Will edit this log when I manage to purchase some.

I was accidentally given 50g of this when I asked for 25g.

I do not regret this.

It tastes really really good. And I know it will be even better when I whisk it with a matcha whisk. It was a little bit bitter, but that’s okay. The grassiness of the tea matched my expectations so I’m happy.

Can’t wait to incorporate this in, like, everything I bake. MATSU.

Let me begin by saying that I don’t really like the color pink. It just makes anything seem less good than what it is.

Now let’s get to the actual logging. This tea tastes great with or without milk. Very little sweetening needed, too. The nuttiness is great but there’s something else about it. The creaminess is just great (yes, it tastes creamy to me).

Oh and I’m loving the pink.

Unique, amazing taste. The maple really stands out. Would’ve been nice to have a little more tea in it though (I think I would’ve given it 100). The popcorn taste is also so good. Best consumed when hot.

I had tried this in store a couple of months ago and it was very weak — as in not strong. I saw the potential, however. I bought 25g and have thoroughly enjoyed the 4 cups I had (all in the past day). The fourth time I made it into a latte with a teaspoon of agave.

WAIT WHAAAAT? What have I just consumed? The greatest thing ever? Yes, most definitely. Must buy 200g (there’s a first time for everything).

EDIT: Assuming anyone actually reads my logs, you may have noticed that tea lattes are my favorite. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE straight teas and trying new ones but nothing makes me feel better than a great tea latte.

I love Earl Grey and London Fog lattes in moderation (once a month, or else I’ll get tired of the bergamot). This “creamy twist” is no different. It’s great with or without milk! Delicious, although I wouldn’t buy a whole tin (25g has taken me 4 months to nearly finish).

Plain and simple: this is a tasty chai but the coco is not prominent. I was really confused because the description says a “strong hint of coconut”, which I didn’t taste at all. Maybe my taste buds were off earlier…

HOWEVER, it is one of the best chais I’ve had at David’s Tea and makes me wants to try more rooibos chais. Also, one of the only rooibos tea blends I like.

Also try it with some steamed milk and honey.

Was looking forward to trying this. Finally tried it in store (TOTD) and enjoyed it, but not enough to purchase it. I may buy it to go when passing by my local DT, but ultimately I wouldn’t purchase a bag of it. The pineapple sweetness tastes way too candied, as others have mentioned, although I really enjoy the fact that it doesn’t ruin the taste of the oolong tea.

Very very good.
Light and floral.
No overpowering taste. The white chocolate is a nice addition. I’m loving this! Must try with milk later or tomorrow.

My favorite straight black from DAVIDsTEA (even though I’ve only tried three in store). The light honey flavor mixes in perfectly with the black tea (it’s hard to believe the taste is actually from the tea and there is no added honey). So soothing. No astringency on the first steep (I didn’t notice any). Tasted even better on the third steep.

This is so good. Such a satisfying beverage. I always add a little more (half a teaspoon or a full teaspoon extra) than it says because the earthy flavor comes out more and the banana is perfect. Very well balanced (I’m surprised these flavors work so well together).

And yes, it’s great as a latte.

This is not a very memorable tea. And I’m so upset because my favorite thing is SALTED CARAMEL and well..anything caramel. Sometimes it’s okay. But it tastes very oily in a way. It’s really hard to explain. Something’s just not right and it has so much potential. It’s even worse as a latte, which is unbelievable. It smells great though.

I sound like I hate it but I don’t. Just disappointed.

Can you say wow? I don’t get wowed often but this tea does it for me every time. Iced or Hot. And great with milk. I can’t get tired of this one ever since David’s Tea opened. As you drink it, you can make out the chocolate more and more, but the minty-ness is always there. The black tea complements the whole very well. Buy some.

This was good both iced and hot. There is a bit of sweetness already. The creaminess of the yogurt tastes really good. I got a second steep out of it!

So what can I say about this one?

It is very tasty as a latte (95/100) but mediocre as a regular tea (70/100). None of the flavors stand out or wow me. With some steamed milk (1/3 cup), however, the coconut is prominent and some vanilla as well! An odd complaint that I have is that the freshness of the tea went away really quickly, so I’m not sure of the quality of the ingredients. Might have to buy this in a tin next time.

I’ll also add that maybe I just suck at steeping tea because it tastes better when I have it in store (I’m talking about this tea). Weird!

Simply amazing. No need to sweeten (the stevia does a good job without being excessive). Great in any form: tea, iced tea, latte, iced latte. The blueberry-ness tastes so good. I’d love to add some Coaticook Blueberry Ice cream with this and make it into a smoothie. This tea NEVER disappoints me :)

This tea… this tea!

I had tried it last fall in store twice (latte first time, regular tea second) and I didn’t enjoy it either time. I felt as though it was too weak and I couldn’t taste much of anything except for some spices which I couldn’t even make out (oddly enough). Maybe my tastes have matured since then because I used to be a fan of Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latte. While I still enjoy it, I think it is wayyyyyy too sweet.

Suffice it to say, I bought 25g of Pumpkin Chai a few days ago…

Wow. It is so good. It tastes so real (as if I’m biting into some great fresh pie). The chai flavors are not too prominent it just tastes creamy and pumpkin-y. I love it. 25g half done within 3 days… I’ve decided, however, not to buy anymore until fall hits (at which time I’ll purchase a tin with 100g). I can’t wait.

This is my favorite iced tea. The aroma of the dry tea leaves is spectacular and it tastes just as good! I can’t wait to try this one cold steeped. My 25g bag is almost finished and I don’t intend on buying more… yet. But it certainly gets me excited for spring-time. Peach!

Really tasty and gives you the kick you need, more than a cup of coffee. I really like the combination of flavors (roasted flavor and almond/chicory is very noticeable but there is a hint of raspberry which goes so well with the rest of the contents) and it really helps me appreciate mate! Can also be enjoyed as a latte. No need to sweeten this one!

This is the only one of these three flavored blooming teas that I’ll be logging, because I rate them all the same. It’s good and obviously fun (because it is a blooming tea). I would’ve given it a higher grade if the flavoring was natural. Still enjoyable!

I love cola. Cherry cola’s alright. But I may be biased because I hate anything fizzy/cola-FLAVORED. This is exactly what this is. It tastes like it’s carbonated, although it isn’t. Tasted the cola a little but not the cherry. Other than that it’s a very bland tea. I couldn’t finish it. Some people may enjoy it though.

I absolutely love this tea. I love the way it smells and I love the way it tastes. One of my favorite green teas (cheap too!). However, I’d prefer a little less toasted rice.
