Movie Night from DAVIDsTEA

Movie Night

Fruit Green Blend by DAVIDsTEA

A new tradition

This popcorn tea is better than the real thing. First of all, it has no calories. Second of all, it’s sweetened with maple and apple. Third of all, it has green tea, which studies (well, ok, experience) say is the ideal brew for keeping you quietly alert throughout a late-night flick. Great for thrillers, dramas, westerns or comedies. Drink it at home or smuggle it into the theatre.

First I bought this tea for my brother, knowing he is a loose leaf tea guru and that he would appriciate the title it was worth the purchase.

Later I went back and purchased 100g (because the free tin is quit a bonus) and have not stopped sipping since. I am NOT a tea person, in fact before this tea the only time I had loose leaf was with my brother. That being said I sincerely hope that this tea is kept either as a seasonal item, or permenant item because when I run out I will be back for more!

It is with a heavy heart that I drink this one for the last time, until I get into DAVIDsTEA for somemore, but there are so many teas to try before I race back to this one, green teas are not my first choice for tea.

The flavour of this one gets me every time, the scent of popcorn and candied apples is enough to make me want to savour a really good book while sipping this or turn on Netflicks and watch The Notebook for the billionth time…

Mmm, I wish I could have more, but I’ll just have to wait until I can get a ride into DAVIDsTEA. Soon, Soon…

I highly recommend this tea to anyone and everyone. Dry it smells just like it sounds, sweet and buttery and it tastes the same. It is absolutely delcious with a very buttery and caramel taste and a hint of apple. It feels like you are at the movies or at a carnival but in a tea! Spectacular.

The first time I tried this, I noticed a metallic aftertaste and thought, “TWO THUMBS DOWN!” because I’m funny like that. I wrote it off for a long time, but then took it upon myself to try it again recently, and… yeah, I’m pretty sure the aftertaste thing was my own damn fault. Steep this one appropriately, or pay the price. When it’s done right, it’s a fun, caramel-corn blend that suits me when I’m in a wacky mood.

I was honestly not sure & thought it was too weird for me, the apple & maple with popcorn seemed unlikely. I tried it anyway and I really enjoyed it. It was a surprising win.

I have to say the first time I tried this tea is when it was launched and it was marketed and packaged in a cute little movie theatre popcorn type container, I bought the package and a tea to go.(I ended up giving the unopened package away) I took one sip and really couldn’t even stomach it. I literally thought I was going to be sick then I found out it was going to be added to their permanent collection. I couldn’t believe it. Well, I went in to pick up one of my favourite teas today and thought I would give it another try so got a tea to go. I took about four sips after I got to the lower level of the mall and decided I HAD to go back and buy more. I actually really enjoyed it and came home and immediately made another cup. I thoroughly enjoyed this and am glad that I did give it another try. I suppose just like I always tell my children always keep an open mind and if you do not like something one day try it again another. Our tastes do change. If it wasn’t so late I would be making another cup right now. A keeper. Movie Night, I am sorry I misjudged you.

I absolutely love how this smells like kettle corn. My only complaint is that the apple takes over the taste of this blend just a little too much. I’m gonna try blending it with a genmaicha of some kind. I have a gyokuro genmaicha and a genmai hojicha coming my way!

Usually I’m not a huge fan of green tea, but Movie Night is absolutely divine. I love the smell of popcorn and when brewed right it is absolutely delicious. This one is a must for anyone skeptical of green tea, and one of the few teas I would consider ordering online.

tasty and a bit odd. I love the creamy scent and I get happy every time I brew a cup

A favorite. I can’t stop drinking this one.

Caramel and apple deliciousness. This is one of my favorite greens because it diverges from the typical green tea flavour but still has all the green tea goodness.

This is one of the worst teas I’ve tried, though my friend likes it a lot. There’s just something about this tea that tastes weird, artificial, and oddly sweet. There’s nothing more that I can think of other than it’s “funky”, and not in a good way.

WOW.

Absolutely love the smell. I definitely taste the bits of apple and popcorn, with a little hint of maple. Perfect to have just by itself, didn’t need to add any sugar or honey to it.

A very nice sweet tea. At times a little too sweet, best to have when you particularly have a sweet craving. Would love to drink while watching a movie but I usually watch movies in the evening and tend to avoid caffeine too late in the evening.
One complaint-there doesn’t seem to be many green tea leaves in it, sometimes struggle to get some out!

I had previously gotten a cup of this to go and I thought it was pretty good. So I bought 100g in a tin. Unfortunately when I had a taste this morning, ick! I think I need to steep it for longer. I felt the 5 minutes was not long enough. I tasted more apples than maple, I don’t think there was enough actual tea in mine. I’m going to do a second steep to see how I feel about it and then decide if I want to take it back.

This is a delicious sweet tea that tastes like caramel popcorn. It has a nice mix of sweet, nutty, and fruit favors.

this tea smells intense! it’s like being in a circus – surrounded by games and acts- i have to say i had greater exception to tea- i tasted more of the apple mingling with caramel and a tangy taste it has a interesting taste. i think i will have a couple more brews.

Being a huge movie night with popcorn fan I couldn’t wait to try this tea.It smells AMAZING.
I really wanted to like it it has all these great elements but the more I drank the less I wanted to drink it.
Tastes like it smells which should have made it ideal.
It had moments of sheer pleasure then moments of just exaggerated weirdness for me.

It was mostly pleasurable but I don’t think I would replenish my stock of this.

It was quite a dividing tea for me.Still not sure if I’ll give it another chance.

Tea with popcorn? What will they think of next…

I love apple, so this tea definitely gets points for that. However, I was disappointed at the amount (rather, lack of amount) of green tea in it.

Still, a delicious drink. They could probably benefit from removing the green tea altogether so that people don’t get disappointed from how little is in it and add something else like caramel bits.

The aroma on this tea was a bit heavy – sort of like cracker jacks. I did like the tea and my kids loved it. It works as a lite dessert replacement and kept my kids from getting into snacks whilst we watched a movie.

some crazy person who loves tea

what can I say? this tastes like popcorn. it’s very odd. definitely a thing you have to be in the mood for.
