drank Sweet Almond Green by DAVIDsTEA
1908 tasting notes

This is one of the last samples from my DT advent calendar – yes I know it’s been 2 and a half months, but I’ve been seeing other teas in the meantime. ;)

I’m a huge marzipan fan and I loved the smell of the tea, like freshly made marzipan paste or the almond cookies my mom always asks me to make. Flavour-wise it’s a bit disappointing, there’s definitely the sweet almond flavour present but the vegetale flavour of the green tea clashes with it. I don’t know if it might be better with a different base, like a green oolong maybe?

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 4 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML

If you really like the marzipan flavour, I suggest you try Alpine Punch (also by David’sTea). It is a rooibos that tastes just like marzipan and it is one of my favourites!

I have tried that one and it’s not bad, but I’m not a huge red-rooibos fan. Thanks for the rec though:)

I’m a university student in her twenties who’s currently working her way toward a Bachelor of Natural Resource Science degree. I love both science and science-fiction and I’m a history nut on top of that. Maybe I should just call myself a nerd and leave it there. ;)

I’ve been drinking tea since I was young but it’s only in the past couple years that I’ve become interested in the good-quality stuff.
