Sipdown!! (208)
Thank you Aimee Popovacki for sharing some of this with me. Unfortunately this was too bitter and too floral for my tastes and it got dumped. That may have been due to it being broken up a fair bit so I won’t rate it but ultimately I don’t think this tea is for me.

I doubt it was from being broken up. I’ve had this like four highly different ways now, and I can’t get it to stop being bitter/chemical tasting. Honestly, I would have just given up on it except it was a gift from a really good friend.
Oh my goodness, last December when I was studying for one of the hardest courses I will ever take, the girl across the table was drinking this and the smell was so offensive to me. I tried it when I first discovered David’s myself and I had to ask her to put the lid back on her mug. She was a good sport haha.
I currently have about 75g I’m trying to figure out how to use. It’s not going well.
SWAP :)
Well, not with me haha! Perhaps I should ask that girl…
Haha Courtney, I imagine that being a pretty random conversation. And I only tried this because Aimee sent it to me. I was actually not too enthused having read all your notes but I figured I should try it for myself. Sadly, it went down the drain.
Haha she was in my class, so she wasn’t a complete random, thank goodness. High stress = low tolerance, even for tea scents evidently. You know how stressful exams can be haha!
It doesn’t hurt to try. :) Well, for the most part.
Best to know for sure than to wonder.
This is one of my favorites. For me, I have to brew it at a lower temperature than what is recommended to not get the bitterness. The floral, well everyone is different. ;)
I tried that tea this morning, It was ok. It had a little bitterness and weird after taste, but it was interesting to taste that it was mainly peach flavor.
