Perfect Pear from DAVIDsTEA
92

This is another sample that came in an order.

I think this is pretty much pear and vanilla, with the pear being the strongest flavor. It’s pretty juicy as far as flavoring goes. I do get a tart aftertaste.

Interesting. I found this one way tart up front, with a lovely pear aftertaste (but the tartness was too hard to take). Sounds like this could be another case of DT inconsistency :(

That very well may be. I am drinking another fruit infusion next to it that is quite tart. It’s possible I’m not picking up on it because of the comparison. Dylan did a bit of research on flavoring tea, and I think it’s possible to “mess” it up with out very strict protocols.

Bio

I’ve discovered I really like the spicy, nutty teas. Some fruity teas are pretty good but they are hit and miss for me. Flower teas really aren’t my thing right now. Seems like my preferences are changing so this may be different in the future.

Tea Rating system:

90 – 100: This is a tea I will always have on hand at work, and at home. I will leave it on altars as offerings of perfection.

80 – 89: This, or one of it’s close cousins, will likely be in my cabinet at home. When this tea runs out, I will buy more. I’ll always wonder if there is something better, but be too afraid to look to stray from home to find it.

70 – 79: Definitely good, but not a clear winner. I enjoy it, I’ll finish it, but I probably won’t buy it again until I’ve exhausted all other versions of this product from any reputable retailer. Though, it may enjoy a resurrection for custom blending.

60 – 69: This tea is okay, but definitely not something I’m going to brew again. I’m going to give what I have left away.

30 – 59: I didn’t finish drinking this tea. I actually poured it out, and went for something else. I’ll still give this tea away, but I’ll do it with a warning and a plead for forgiveness.

0 – 29: This tea is riding securely towards an iceberg at the helm of the failboat. I’ve taken this out of my tea tin, and laid it on a napkin as potpurri. I do not consider it fit for human consumption.

Yes, I did copy this from Dylan. It’s okay we share every thing any ways.
