Travel mug SIPDOWN! Can’t wait to try my new teas tonight haha so I had to finish this one off first. This tastes like a Tootsie Roll in my travel mug today. Delicious! Might consider re purchasing some of this just because it fares so well in my mug!! See previous notes on this tea :)

Good taste but an odd name for a tea company isn’t it? I mean, it implies that you have to belly up and get used to the taste of the tea, that most people wouldn’t like it.

Yes it is a bit of a strange name, but I’ll forgive them as their teas, or at least the ones I’ve tried, have been pretty good :) it might be referring to how coffee is more of a common hot beverage currently and you have to acquire a taste for tea or something, I should ask next time I’m there!

Hello all, I am an electrical engineer (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it was excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee! (unless it’s a really good cappuccino or latte, or decent decaf haha)

I enjoy a variety of teas – current favorites being ripe and raw pu’erhs, chinese black teas and herbal/green rooibos blends. I also enjoy white, green, and oolong teas, although I tend to drink them more in the warmer months. I have also tried matcha and guayusa, but I don’t drink them too often as I am a bit sensitive to caffeine. As a result I don’t drink black teas as often as I used to, but in moderation I can still enjoy a wide variety of teas.

Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid most other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a bit, but that’s ok. However I have tried almonds and found out I can eat them, so I have been trying a few teas with them in them.
