From DAVIDsTEA

If you’ve been to Japan in the spring, then you know about the cherry blossoms. People gather under the blooming trees to eat, drink and celebrate for days on end. This cherry tea brings you right there. It’s a festival of white Bai Mudan, green Darjeeling, Chinese green teas, dried cherries, coconut and rose petals. And unlike a spring festival, you can enjoy this deliciously fruity tea all year long.

Advent calendar [8/24]

I moved back into my parents’ house in 2011 and promptly began my addiction to tea. This tea was one of my first purchases during that time period. When I found that today’s tea was Cherry Blossom, I had the most fantastic flashbacks to drinking this tea while at my first job in my field. This tea was one of my favourites from that time period. I can still picture drinking this out of my Bodum travel mug with the pumping lever.

I was so excited to drink this one that I probably steeped it for 30 seconds too long. I dumped out the pot and re-steeped it. While the original infusion would have been better, the second infusion was incredible.

Taste-wise, it’s got lovely hints of grass and sweet cherries with a smooth aftertaste. I really liked holding this one in my mouth in small sips. This tea was best as it breathed and cooled down to 40-50 degrees.

I think this is a tea I’ll have to pick up. I definitely need more of this one.

I have to confess I’m not the biggest fan of David’s Tea – too many disappointing blends come out of there in my opinion. However, I was at the mall today and figured I would try a cup of something I’ve never had before. I had a cup of this hot, with no sweetener. This is a blend of white and green teas with cherry, rosebuds and coconut. I did enjoy the cherry/floral flavor of this. I find that cherry is such a difficult flavor to get right in tea. This wasn’t too bad but it did seem slightly high on the artificial flavor. Probably would not turn down another cup if it was offered to me, but it won’t be a purchase.

For myself I find with DAVIDs, the simpler the blend, the more likely I am to enjoy it. I find they have a really good selection of straight green teas compared to other companies I order from, which is something I really like. As for herbals, there’s a few I really enjoy (like straight peppermint, mulberry magic, cold 911, ginger beer, chamomile) but they don’t tend to invest in a lot of “medicinal herbal” blends and instead focus of fruit blends (ESPECIALLY with hibiscus- which I DO not DRINK HOT) or candy pieces which is something I’m not in to.

So with that being said, I hear where you are coming from with their blends lol

yes the simpler the better, I find too many of their blends disgusting.

My all time favourite tea for summer! I like to drink it hot on cooler days, or I’ll steep it cold for the hotter ones. It is such a nice, cherry flavour, but not too strong of a fruit taste that it becomes too sweet.

God I love how it smells!! Just like cherry candies. It doesn’t quite taste the same as it smells, I can distinguish coconut and the white tea base. It is a soothing tea and I loved drinking it in winter, it made me smile despite the harsh weather. Iced, however, I did not like it as much, the cherry flavour became too artificial. The rose buds in the blend are really pretty and since it came out in february, I think of it as a romantic tea.

It’s really hard to get cherry to work correctly for a tea, but this isn’t too obtrusive. A lightly diluted brew when served iced, or full-bodied when served warm, both complement this tea well. Beware of temperature, as this easily burns, and the tannins will ruin the flavor! Fairly mellow, floral, and thirst quenching.

This is a great tea iced or hot! I love teas that are versatile like that!

No sweetener added, its a very smooth floral tea, with the very slightest hint of cherry! I love it!

I’ve been wanting to try this tea for a while now and was so happy to get it for a gift this past weekend. It’s a really nice cherry-coconutty tea that I like to really over steep to get the full flavor out. Great if you’re in the mood for cherry.
