This tea has an earthy tobacco flavor with a very forward astringency. Aroma and flavor remind me of the aroma of my father’s Holiday brand pipe tobacco in the 1970’s. A strong-flavored tea, I did not detect notes of caramel in the batch I received. As I am not overwhelmed by the flavor, I will continue to look for a Puerh I like better. This was the last of this 2 oz envelope and I will not be re-ordering. I don’t hate it, I just don’t like it very much.

Very average black tea, and an average or below average puerh tea by taste. Quite drinkable if you add a little oatmilk and collagen hydrolysate (collagen protein powder) to it. By itself, it’s a little rough. I had about half a dozen leftover tea bags from a box I bought a couple of years ago, so I thought I’d give it another try. Packaging is a paper tea bag envelope so that can’t have helped with the tea aging and oxidizing, but at least is recyclable. Not bad.

Really nice cocoa-flavored mushroom tea. Hits all of the health bases with Chaga, Cordyceps, Rhodiola, and Reishi. Also has Blue Lotus for deep dreaming. It’s a good and healthy mushroom tea.

I love cranberries but two things turned me off: 1) When steeping, it smelled like chicory, but I think that was the dandelion root. 2) It was sour-bland. It just didn’t taste like cranberries.

A very light oolong tea with floral and fruit flavors. I picked up this tea sachet on my many travels; sadly, the website for Waterfall Tea Company will not load in my browser, so I guess they are out of business. Ingredients are very good quality rendering an enjoyable cup of tea that is halfway between a black and a floral tisane. I teabag, 195 degrees F.

This tea is OK, but I paid a premium price for “OK.” The CBD flavor overpowers the cocoa (not chocolate) flavoring and leaves a residual, unpleasant taste in your mouth. I don’t think I would buy a CBD tea again.

Has stevia in it, so that is the overwhelming flavor for me. Metallic. Other than that, some hibiscus, although the flavor is faint. Not ordering DavidsTea again, too much stevia. I used to really love it but I think it has gone downhill since I first started drinking it.

This tea has an overwhelming flavor of chicory which I don’t like! Also, chaga is the second to the last ingredient on the list. Go online and buy chaga tea instead of drinking this. Weak overall flavor. Can’t taste the chocolate, cannot recommend.

This is a fairly good-tasting puerh with strong notes of hazelnut. The hazelnut overwhelms the chocolate; the chocolate is somewhat weak. The Stevia in this tea isn’t as strong as other DavidsTeas but still there, and it gives the tea an unpleasant after taste. It’s ok but not something I would recommend.

I decided I would try this tea as it sounded good. About 40% of the way through, my tongue started to burn and swell up. I believe this is due to the inclusion of Stevia and natural flavoring. I have NOT had a problem with these additives for a long time and never this bad. Suddenly all of DavidsTeas that have them are bothering me. Threw out the envelope.
