31 Tasting Notes

Ice Cream Cake from DAVIDsTEA
100

Not sure why, but this was slightly less “oily” this time around. Excellent as usual!

Cream of Earl Grey (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
100

Although I always steep my teas with boiling water, I tried this with slightly cooler water. It wasn’t strong enough for my at 6 minutes, so I ended up closer to 10. I would stick with boiling water!

Ice Cream Cake from DAVIDsTEA
100

My mom brought this home for me in the spring, and I must say, I’m extremely impressed! It smells almost too sweet at first, but it definitely mellows out. Being that it is ice creamy, milk works really well in this tea. I find I usually don’t have to add any sugar at all, it’s sweet enough on it’s own.

Glitter & Gold from DAVIDsTEA
99

Glitter and Gold is another one of my daily teas. It’s sweet enough that nothing has to be added, and I like the fact that my tea is a little bit sparkly! I suppose you could add milk but I don’t know if that would downplay the sparkle factor. It’s an excellent cinnamon tea!

Pumpkin Chai from DAVIDsTEA
74

I was a little hesitant when I first smelt the tea, but once it was steeped, it was fantastic! It is a natural pumpkin taste, which is a great change from starbucks flavouring. I find it best with a little bit of sugar and a few drops of milk (though the milk isn’t by any means necessary). Great fall tea!

Toasted Marshmallow from DAVIDsTEA
100

I love this tea, David’s has done an excellent job with this one! It smells a tad sweet but once steeped is perfect. It’s quite mellow, but still perks you up!

Cream of Earl Grey (organic) from DAVIDsTEA
100

This is my staple tea, I have a cup every day! It’s like a London Fog without the extra sugar, and is a great alternative to standard Earl Grey

Profile

Bio

Although I’m originally from Winnipeg, I’m in Dublin, IE right now for school. I got hooked on David’s Tea living at home, and branched out from there! (Yes, I did bring an absurdly large amount of tea with me in order to survive). Twinings is a great alternative when I don’t have time to steep properly!

I mostly drink black teas (anything with cinnamon is fantastic), with a few white teas as well.

Location

Dublin, IE
