drank Peanut Butter Cup by DAVIDsTEA
1271 tasting notes

This is the third time drinking this tea and I’m still undecided on it.

It’s certainly peanutty, kinda bland and watery. I think it’s neat that there’s no peanut in it (just almond) but tastes like peanut. There is a bit of chocolate in there but it’s watery.

However – you need to steep this one right to get the flavor. Boiling for around 4 or 5 minutes does the trick. If you steep it longer than that, it becomes more apple and tart in flavor which really tastes pretty yucky. Oh and adding extra tea helps get more flavor. But it is certainly too watery to make it with milk.

Meh. I think a Peanut Butter Cup tea can be done, but DT missed the mark.

Have you tried it as a latte at all? I find I liked it a lot better as one personally :)

Really? I am obsessed with this flavor. I just finished the last of it to salty, peanut butter infused tears!

I’m a tea blogger – The Oolong Owl
www.OolongOwl.com – I do tea reviews, obsessively photograph teas with mischievous crocheted Owls and get tea drunk. I am also a crochet and knitting designer at Awkward Soul Designs.

I was raised on floral oolongs and green teas, mostly “beauty” teas. Early on as a kid, I can guzzle an entire pot of tea (or two) at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant.
These days I like adventurous and interesting tea blends. I’m fearless in trying new teas! I’m into oolong, pu’erh, white, green, black, guayusa, mate and herbals. I’m not into red rooibos but I keep buying it anyway.

The tea brand that got me started into loose leaf teas was DAVIDsTea. I used to live in Vancouver Canada and had access to their shop, however that is now limited since I moved to southern California.

However, the perks of living in the US is ultra cheap, fast shipping! Since then, my tea stash insanely expanded.

Other stuff I’m into that sneaks into my tea notes: Brazilian jiu-jitsu, metal music, drawing, painting, cooking, photography and nail polish.

BTW, my Steepster cupboard is not even close to accurate and I track my teas on a spreadsheet. Last update 573 Teas – August 2015.
