Kiwi's Big Adventure from DAVIDsTEA
35

So, small anecdote: I’ve never seen Peewee’s Big Adventure and have no desire to ever see it. So when Kiwi’s Big Adventure was first posted, my mind somehow managed to interpret it as a…. Kiki’s Delivery Service reference.

Disappointingly, I don’t like this tea nearly as much as I like the movie. :/ I had it iced in store today and it was just bland. Bland and bitter. I asked for only a little agave because the smell and description promised it’d be sweet by itself, since usually I like some sweetener in green tea when I have it iced, but it was just awful. Bland, no kiwi flavour, no fruity flavour at ALL, just bitter iced green tea. It may have been how it was brewed, since I got it at the location I haven’t been very happy with recently, but I doubt I’ll be getting a sample of my own to try, honestly.

I am hoping they just brewed this incorrectly, because I am really hoping to love this tea!

I hope so too! I’m going to wait a little bit before I try it again (either hot in the store or maybe a small sample to brew at home) because I absolutely adore kiwi fruit—I don’t want this one to let me down!

Profile

Bio

Canadian tea addict with a passion for all teas around the world! My favourites are greens, pu’erh, various herbals, and rooibos; I’m quicker to search up and sample a new kind of herbal or Asian/international kinds of tea rather than traditionally British black teas.

I’m a bit of a fandom twerp, so I sample and review a lot of fandom blends on Adagio, as well as make my own blends whenever I find the inspiration.

My favourite tea shops/producers are Pukka Herbs, Pippins Tea Company, DAVIDsTea, Adagio Teas, and The Tea Emporium.

Current favourite teas: Blood Orange Pu’erh (David’s), The Woman (Adagio fandom blend for BBC Sherlock), and Vanilla & Chamomile (Pukka).
