Secret Weapon

Got this to try as my to-go tea after our DT stop today…so very yummy! Much love for this drink, will definitely look into buying a bag of it. It’s a bit pricey, but I think well worth it…especially if it can help me fight this cold that’s coming.

This is a winner for me.

Dry, the tea has a nutty smell. I don’t really catch the licorice, or any other ingredients in the small.

Once brewed, it still smells nutty. Drinking it, I taste a lot of almond, which thank goodness doesn’t taste like marzipan. Just a nice, true nut taste. I taste a bit of the white tea base, but honestly still don’t detect the licorice, and I know gogi berries don’t have much taste in tea. It doesn’t matter, this kind of tastes like cookie dough to me, so I’m happy.

I added honey to this one…and it gave it an odd flavor. I think I’ll have to re-try it with something a bit different

Dee-lightful!

A wee sample sent by a tea-lover. Like the smell right out of the foil bag – sweet, nutty. Brewed to a pale gold. Smells really nice from my tea mug. I steeped it for quite a while to see if it would get stronger, but it’s pretty weak. Perhaps I would need to make a stronger infusion (more dry tea). Not all that great in taste. Added a teaspoon of sugar. I don’t taste the white tea at all. Nutty, so that’s good. I will try this again, but make it much stronger.

This is an interesting tea. Opening the package released a really unexpected nutty smell. On tasting it, I was mostly overwhelmed by the almond flavor. There was a little hint of the white tea, and I did get some licorice at the end. It was very nice. I added some sugar and I think that made it taste a bit weird. Next time, I’ll drink it without sugar and see how that goes. It was nice, but I probably wouldn’t buy it.

I don’t like nuts in a tea. This is my opinion, but try it as you might like it.

toasty almond flavour! very light and fresh

I got this tea as a free sample with my online order.

I wished I liked it.. but I found all the flavours to clash together.. something about the almonds not doing it for me.

Just picked up a cup to go from David’s Tea to take back to the office, since everyone around me is sick and this says it has more anti-toxins then I know what to do with. Not bad, but not my favorite. The smell is very nutty, but still tastes quite good and mild compared to the smell, I would definitely pick this up again, but not sure I would buy a bag of it…will give it another try sometime soon.

This tea is fantastic. It has a great scent, great flavour, and can withstand my teabag abuse on school days. There is very little bad I can say about it.

The almond slivers and cocoa nibs are so aeromatic, it’s a joy to just smell this tea, let alone enjoy the taste.

I love this tea. The first time I tried it I was not fond of it at all. I figured I’d drink it to not waste but I definitely wasn’t going to buy it again. The further into the cup I got, the more the taste started to grow on me! Now I find myself reaching for this one in the morning. If there aren’t any goji berries in the mix it’s not as good but next time I’m at David’s I’m purchasing more of this one.

Not so keen on flavoured white teas – white tea is so mild, any flavouring completely overwhelms the taste.
