I have had two pots of this now. I really want to love this tea because it is the one that actually pushed me over the edge to order Della Terra teas. I really do not taste any pineapple, just the cake part. The cake part tastes more like a coffee cake to me. It is very similar to 2 cake teas I recently tried from Simpson and Vail. I am trying to figure out the ingredient/flavor that keep giving me that coffee cake flavor. I need to do some more drinking to decipher with my taste buds. I enjoyed this tea, just not what I expected at all. All these cake teas are making me more tolerant of coffee flavor-not sure if that is good or bad! Also not sure if that is why some people are drawn to them, they are drinkers of both.

I just received my first order from Della Terra yesterday, and this was the first tea I decided to try from the batch. Sniffing the leaf, all I can smell is brown sugar. It’s not in the ingredient list, but is in the taste description on the bag, and for obvious reasons. The leaf also has huge chunks of dried pineapple, and I got a few into my first cup. I used 2 teaspoons of leaf for my 12oz mug.

The tea smelled lovely when steeping, definitely reminiscent of a baked good. When I finally got to taste it, I enjoyed it, but it was very, very sweet. Like, I am gonna need a chaser of straight black tea after this cup, because it is so sweet. The base tea is unremarkable, in that I can barely taste it, but it seems to suit the blend well. I smell more than taste the pineapple, but the overall impression is certainly a baked good, so this hits the mark as far as it is marketed. I bought 1 oz of three other Della Terra teas and 2 oz of this one, because I was confident I would like it. The good news is, I do like it! The bad news is, it might take me quite a while to get through that much of this tea.

Another good tea to try for the evening! I was prepared for sweet, so I did not sweeten the tea initially. My mistake, it did need some sweetening after all! Once the sweetener hit, the cake notes started to pop and a comforting warm sweetness appeared. I did not get pineapple, but I did get the caramel notes other people got. This one actually reminded me quite a bit of David’s Tea Birthday Cake, not because it tastes identical, but because it has some similar sweet note undertones. I was actually very impressed with this tea when all was said and done! It was a good, solid cup of tea!
