I picked this to give my night a calming end. This had an amazing aroma while steeping. I could hint at honey, sweetgrass, and a soft flowery undertone, However, the flavor did not match. The taste was dry and with slight bitterness. It has a pleasantly sweet aftertaste, but altogether not what I was looking for. I guess this company just isn’t the company for me.

DavidsTea is definitely wayy better for flavored teas-their unflavored ones seem to generally fall flat :/
That seems to be the pattern with most “chain” tea shoppes…
Yeah. I only have liked one unflavored tea from Teavana so far. It’s their Body + Mind blend, I really like it still-it’s a blend of Silver needle, monkey picked oolong, and jasmine pearls! It’s just a really nice blend, and not too expensive!
And the Jasmine Butterflies at DavidsTea are pretty amazing too actually-but don’t waste your money on them! Super expensive!! But if you can redeem your points and get it for free it’s totally worth it! Least to me it is! But other than those…the rest are just kinda a rip off :/
Thats been my experience. I really enjoyed Teavanas Golden Dragon promotion, but I was kinda suckered into it. I realized I could a lot better quality and for half the price elsewhere.
Oh yeah, I got some of that one in a swap-it was super bitter though in the store, and when I made it at home…and I didn’t even over-steep. xD So weird…I don’t understand. xD Personally my favorite Golden Dragons are Teavivre and Harney & Sons, have you tried them?
I actually have not, I do own quite a bit of Teavivres products (drinking one right now actually) and I always love their quality.
Ohh well if we ever do a swap, I’ll have to send you some! :P
hahah sounds good :)
