Tina S. drank Citron Oolong by DAVIDsTEA

I love lemon teas, so I was looking forward to this one, despite the jasmine flowers. I’m glad I tried it, because I couldn’t find any jasmine notes. Black, I found that there was an intensity lacking, both as a tea and as a lemon flavour. Since I have a horrid sweet tooth I added some sugar, and voila! There was the lemon I’d been looking for. I’ve been told this one is excellent iced, so I’ll have to try it that way next time. Although since my cat broke my tea glass (my favourite, and the one I used to brew iced teas!) right after I finished this, I’m not quite sure when that will be!

Bio

An avid tea addict in the GTA, Ontario, Canada. I’m always looking for new teas and new tea addicted friends!

My preference is loose leaf of all varieties, however the occasional bagged tea can come along and charm me. Flavoured or straight, there is a good chance that I will be falling in love.

My ratings system is based on the smiley faces above the ratings scale.

0-10 — This tea didn’t get past the initial sip process. I just couldn’t bring myself to drink more, I found it so horrible.

11-50 — It made it past first sips, but as I drank a bit more I realized I really wasn’t enjoying the tea, and would never drink it again.

51-60 — I probably made it through the cup, but won’t be trying another one.

61-69 — Either it’s a mystery tea and I can’t decide if I like it or not, or it is one that I felt was purely adequate.

70-85 — These are the teas that I appreciate and/or like. If they are falling in this area they are ones that I would definitely re-buy, however are not ones that I must always have on hand. The good, but not the amazing.

86-94 — These are the favourites. My cupboard feels empty if they aren’t inside.

95-100 — Tea perfection!
