The dry tea smells of peppermint and chocolate (just like in Love Tea #7, the only other chocolate tea I’ve tried so far), and it’s pretty strong even with this cold I just developed. I didn’t actually see any peppercorns (and for these teas I usually open the bags to let some air in, close them and shake them up a bit to make sure the ingredients are mixed throughout before I dive in) , but that’s ok. I steeped this for like 4 minutes and added a bit of milk plus a tiny tiny dash of sugar. It tastes so smooth and would definitely be a perfect dessert tea, but I don’t think I’ll save this tea just for special occasions. It’s so good! Especially feeling how I do right now, it’s very soothing and delicious. And each sip is a little bit different it seems. Sometimes I taste the mint + vanilla, sometimes the mint + chocolate, and sometimes just the mint or chocolate.

I got myself a bag of this recently, to kind of stock up for the colder months ahead. I think peppermint is amazing when you don’t feel well – whether it’s an upset stomach, sore throat, cold, headache. It’s good on a cold day, and it’s refreshing on a hot day!
It’s good for making other drinks with as well, and getting creative. My bf and I made hot chocolates the other day, and I steeped some of this in my cup for a few minutes for a peppermint hot chocolate :). We both loved it and we’re definitely making it again next time. And last night I made some straight peppermint ‘tea’ to soothe my stomach, just steeped for a couple minutes and cooled enough to sip. It totally did the trick, and the relief is instant.
This is such a good ‘tea’ to have around, because it can be used so many different ways, and peppermint is just an all around good thing!

Had my first cup last night and it was very good!
When I opened the package up the smell made me happy – there was a hint of real pumpkin pie (it was EXACTLY like the ones I made the other day for Thanksgiving), and the cheesecake part is definitely there too.
I steeped this for a few minutes I think, and added milk/bit of sugar. The flavour itself is kind of the same as how it smelled! The pumpkin cheesecake is there, without covering up the black tea. It seemed like the flavours kept changing and some became more pronounced as my cup cooled off – especially that earthiness of the pumpkin, but in a good way.

This is definitely one of the best teas I’ve had in a while!! And it’s so perfect for fall too, which makes me love it even more. It smells like real, fresh, homemade apple pie, (or at least the apple filling part).
The actual taste is the same as how it smells, except the green tea shines through as well. I like how the flavour of the apple & cinnamon is obvious but doesn’t take over everything – these ingredients work really well together. Plus it’s sweet, but the apples are also a bit tart too, which is just like apple pie should taste. It’s like drinking a hot apple cider, but lightened and freshened up by the tea part. I could see alot of my family/friends liking this as well, and I hope it sticks around at Davids because it’s pretty amazing.

Really enjoying this fall collection of teas! I didn’t know what to expect before trying this, and the flavours are unique but definitely good. The ingredients all taste great together – I love how the cinnamon doesn’t really come through much except for the warmth it gives. The orange peel is there but subtle, and these mulberries really do give this a caramel aspect.

This is something I feel like I should always have on hand from now on. It`s so good! I definitely got the creamy vanilla flavours (I added a little bit of milk and sugar), and it worked so well with the Earl Grey base.
The dry smell of this tea is kind of different, (also reminds me of Buttered Rum in a small way) but I would drink this any day.

This wasn’t a favourite for me – I wanted to try it because I really like mango but after checking the ingredients list and not actually seeing much mango there I was wary. Should have trusted my instincts!!!
In the bag, this tea does smell softly fruity and kinda nice, but it’s more like bubblegum than mango to me. After steeping it hot a few times and using different water temps/amounts of tea/etc, it just always smelled kind of like it’s gone bad.
I’ve tried steeping it with room temp water, cool water, steeping for less than a minute up to the recommended steeping times, pretty much everything I could think of! But it just doesn’t work for me. That said, I still recommend others to try it out if it’s something they think they’d be into. For the price, you do get a fair amount of tea, although there are lots of big orange slices, etc in there too.

Glad they brought this back! I experimented today – about 1/3 of the ‘perfect tsp’ of this, with about the same (a bit less) Oh Canada, steeped for 3 to 4 minutes. I added a bit of maple sugar and some 10% cream – something I never ever do! I tried cream in my tea a long time ago and hated it, but recently read someone else’s recommendation to add some to this tea and it honestly works. It’s just like a warm piece of pumpkin pie with some fresh whipped cream on top, and the Oh Canada kind of balances the pumpkin more, plus gives it a tiny hint of maple!!
