2958 Tasting Notes
coldbrew – 1 tsp, cold water + ice, 10 minutes
In 10 minutes, it steeps deep amber and smells of vanilla and rooibos
Wow, this really does well coldbrewed. The sweet rooibos and flavourful vanilla & bourbon are perfectly balanced. The rooibos isn’t minerally like hot rooibos sometimes is, but it is a little bit fruity with highlights of nectar/honey. Just all around delicious.

Preparation
Coldbrew!
I expected this to be similar to the flavour of the tea brewed hot, but I found it very woody, herby, and nothing like key lime or graham cracker/pie. Nothing sweet or creamy, either. I recommend sticking to brewing this hot.

Preparation
Coldbrew sipdown!
I don’t enjoy the base used in this tea, but the white chocolate + milk chocolate + creamy alcohol flavours. It is sweet like icing sugar, but the base is a bit bitter despite its malty mouthfeel. It’s a nice dessserty tea, but the base + artificial chemical taste is definitely off putting. The base also gets bitter and soapy if oversteeped.
Flavors: Alcohol, Artificial, Chocolate, Creamy, Malt, Milk, Powdered Sugar, White Chocolate
Preparation
A rolled Chinese green tea with sweet, mellow strawberry flavour. Tasty cold brew – not astringent or bitter. The leaves are really beautiful in how they are full leaves loosely rolled. They unfurl into full leaves when steeped. Not much to say about the tea because it just tastes like a nice green with strawberry flavour. Simple, but satisfying.
Flavors: Fruity, Smooth, Strawberry, Sweet
