Really impressive, a Mate that need to be remembered!

I admit I was surprised because the tea actually smell like chocolate-banana with a hint of raspberry and taste like banana bread. There’s for sure a chocolate flavor in there.

So try it because you will love the way this tea impress your mouth! :)

I really need to raise my rating for this one.
I’ve tried it as a latte and… WHOA! This one is a killer latte!

-If you don’t like bergamot, you will hate this blend!

Balance : Great, really shown the Bergamot taste.
Special characteristic : The bergamot make the difference.
Worth the taste : 4.50$ for 50g, YES!

Full taste :
From first to last, the bergamot taste which really make this blend memorable and, the black tea. Simply nice! :)

This tea REALLY taste like it smell.

Overall : A surprising blend that can carry the epicness of the classic Earl Grey and which can define it’s own unique taste too!

Delicate with a pairing of Rooibos and Maple. It’s a maple syrup tea. It smell like it and does taste like it, but the taste is really not too “sugary” in mouth like the maple syrup does.

This is really a re-comforting winter/spring tea and would be really a must for a “croustade aux pommes” hahaha! French words!

-Review for the hot tea, NOT iced.
-Try it as a popsicle, not as a hot drink.

Balance : Really bad.
Special characteristic : You can make popsicle with it!
Worth the taste : 7.50$ for 50g, not really…

Full taste :
1. The white chocolate creaminess.
2. A LOTS of orange flavor.

That’s it.
The smell is awesome, but not the taste.

Overall : When you taste this tea HOT, the taste won’t come. Try it as a popsicle, not as a hot drink.

As everybody says, this tea is impressive!

It has a really natural and fresh raspberry taste trough allll the taste. The dark tea is well balanced but is not the first thing you taste.

So, it’s really fruity with a present raspberry flavor which are backed by the black tea and coconuts taste!

A maté for the coffee lovers!

Balance : Well balanced.
Special characteristic : Smoky taste, energizing and a unique Maté blend.
Worth the price : 6.50$ for 50g, yes. (But the blend is a little heavy)

Full taste :
First of wall, the wood taste from the maté came in mouth.

Then, it mix with the earthy/smoky coffee beans flavor perfectly.

After that, you got a little chocolate hint.

The final note is the coffee beans aftertaste, sweet and subtile.

Overall : It’s a really unique maté blend. I understand now why it is a DAVIDsTEA classic. The taste is surprising. Maybe for a first maté this blend will seems a little weird, but give it a try. Either you love coffee or not!

Hum, Rooibos and Sencha with a Citrus flavor?

Balance: Good, but a little… strange.
Special characteristic : Sencha with citrus?
Worth the price : 6.50$ for 50g, yeah…

Etc.: I personally think that the sencha taste mixed with the citrusy flavor is great, but sometime weird in the mouth. Anyway, if you forgot the little Sencha, everything in this blend is great! I personally prefer Some Velvet Morning because of the really great blend between the green chinese tea, the citrus and the subtile tangerine which are really well balanced. But, the Detox berries mixed with the tangerine taste would be the best.

So, i’ve already finished my tin of this one and I need to raise my rating.

This is the first tea I offer to all my “non-tea-friends” and it impress all of them. Try it, and share the joy :)

Organic Jasmine tea. Yep.

Balance: Good.
Special characteristic : Subtile creamy taste, well balanced green tea.
Worth the price : 7.00$ for 50g, yes!

Full taste :
First of all, creamy in the mouth, but not too much creamy like vanilla tea. That’s a natural creaminess from the Jasmine flower.

Then, you got the jasmine taste blended with the creaminess.

After that, you taste the body of the tea, which is not too light and not too strong. The green tea is really well balanced in my opinion.

The final note is the Jasmine blended with the creaminess, this time, the jasmine is much stronger on the mouth.

Overall : It’s a decent Jasmine tea! The difference with this one, Dragon Pearls and Butterfly Jasmine : the green tea quality.

All the spicy taste of the Chai,
but the drink is smooth.
A subtile pepper aftertaste,
so… we got a legendary Chai?

If you’re a fan of the Chai blends, but the pure Chai blends like a Masala Chai, have in mind that it’s a smoother one blend. Lot’s of Chai i’ve tasted has some very aggressive spicy taste in your mouth. Like an indian Chai blend. For the beginner in chai tea I would say that Coco Chai Rooibos is the perfect first impression of a Chai blend.

So, do we got a legendary Chai Rooibos?
Yes, a smooth one.
A beginner one.

A Chai you can make to your friend who’s not really a “fan” of tea,
because he never tried a good one and he never tried any Chai in his life.

Finally, it’s a perfect blend for just relax in winter and during summer too,
because the spices won’t overwhelm you during sunny day!

Here’s a little tip : If you buy this tea, try it with some sushi. That will be an unforgettable experience!

Really enjoyable. Really light. Really smooth.

This one have a taste which is really close to the white tea but perfumed with jasmine. You don’t really need that much quality to appreciate a jasmine tea… But, for some special occasion you can taste it and just, relax and enjoy this paradisiac taste.

So, keep a little 25g of this one for very special occasions and buy a full 100g bin of Silk dragon jasmine and you’re gonna be happy.

It’s a tea to try for the jasmine tea lover, but there’s not a lots of difference in the jasmine taste. The difference is in the tea taste (close to a white tea) and the smoothness of this one.

That’s what i’ve been looking for, another everyday green tea.

Nothing impressive here, the classical green tea taste. Nothing to impress and everything to have a good day. Plus, you have a lots of this one because it’s a light tea. A light and cheap everyday tea.

Definitively another average straight green tea.

For a everyday tea, it’s a perfect one.

It’s the Oolong tea you’re looking for; sweet, flowery, a little sugar taste and you can resteep this one a lots of time! For Oolong fans only.

Well, is it heaven? Not that much.

It’s a strong black tea with some choco-berries taste. The black tea is really present here, which is comforting me because the berries don’t overwhelm the tea.

Overall, i’ll admit that it’s a really complete taste and the satisfaction is guaranteed.
But, i’ve just taste one sampler so… i’m not well suit to criticism.

It’s sad sad sad sad sad sad… That I’ve just had a sample of this tea. I would drank more and more of this one!

The smell is complete, the blend is just so colorful and finally the taste… Is just what you need during a cold winter day!

Who gonna give me a little more of this one? haha.

Free Forever Nuts for everyone! Yes, I would like to give a cup of this marvelous blend to everyone in the world!

No, it’s not nutty. It’s recomforting instead! I’ve just drank a little heavenly cinnamon blend with some apple and others aroma which make me think of… “Croustade aux pommes”. I don’t know how to say it in english, but it smell like that! Definitely it’s worth the buy. The only thing is that the "tea"a is heavy so… You have less tea for your money.

Forever-ever-ever-ever Nutsss!

One little thing to say about this tea. It’s really expensive 12,50 for 25g but the tea is light so you have way more of this one in your bag! For my 25g i’ve had the same amount than the 50g of Buttered Rum.

I think it’s impossible to not enjoy this herbal tea. There’s a refreshing spring breeze in it. Is it in the smell or? Because the smell reminds me of some jelly candy. The taste is like sweet berries. Definitely worth the sampler!

Do I gonna buy a little more of this herbal tea? No.
It need more tea for a cup (2 tsp per cup) and it’s making this one expensive…

Once again, i’ve tasted it. But damn! There’s not a lots of this tea in the bag! For a 50g i’ve had less tea than the others, but the quality deserve the price!

That’s fucking awesome! I usually didn’t really takes the herbal tea seriously, but now… God damn! That’s the spring in da mouth!

The scent was really overwhelming but the taste was smoottth yeah, seriously a smooth grapefruit! What about the color? It’s really vivid! Finaly, for the last little smash, there the citrus!

I could drank this tea again and again!

This time, i’ve tried something more special, more tasty. I’ve made the regular tea, then, i’ve added some (a little) pure maple syrup. The taste was really good. After that, i’ve added a little of Haagen Dazs “Dulce de Leche”. I found the taste really awesome! But, i’ve needed something even more awesome and finally i’ve added some… Rum. GOD DAMN! What a taste! Perfectly perfect!

One fresh sampler of the Spring Collection in my teapot, amazing? Well, it’s good but it’s not amazing. The smell is amazing! But, the taste just… Taste like any other lime-tea i’ve tasted. I’ve didn’t even taste any little subtile aftertaste to make a difference with other lime-tea.

Overall, the quality of taste is great. If you want a daily lime tea and you love black tea, buy it. If you like green tea more than black tea, buy “Lime-Bang” which is way more impressive.
