2.5 teaspoons in my 16 oz steeping mug + sweetener

Another Della Terra sale purchase. This one isn’t bad, but it’s not nearly as flavorful as the Carrot Cake blend. I’m getting a slight chocolate (?) cake flavor and a creamy flavor (cream cheese frosting almost) but it’s a lot lighter. To be honest, everyone’s interpretation of red velvet cake is different and if you are used to generic versions, you probably taste red dye more than any “real” flavor. Nonetheless, this isn’t bad but it doesn’t blow me away like the Carrot Cake version.

Bio

I recently discovered loose leaf tea and am already addicted (much to my husband’s dismay)! I prefer fruity teas iced and savory teas hot. Looking forward to drinking and chatting.

Some likes/dislikes I’ve been noticing:

Likes:
Pineapple
Jasmine
Fruity White Teas
lighters Blacks
Most Oolongs (especially greener varieties)
dessert teas
tisanes iced that don’t require added sweetener

Dislikes:
Spicy flavors unless in chai
astringent black teas
heavy ginger teas
teas with licorice (as primary ingredients – somehow I like some where the licorice is in the back drop)
heavily oxidized oolongs

For my own reference, I’m only placing “full size” teas in my cupboard.
