MooKiwi drank Bubbie's Baklava by DAVIDsTEA

165 tasting notes

I LOVE winter and am always so excited to see what the winter collection has to offer. Nothing is more enjoyable than being snowed-in and sitting in front of the TV watching Christmas movies with a blanket, a cup of tea, a fire and a pet or two. I picked up a few grams of this yesterday and brought it home to try. I’ve never had baklava so I can’t really comment on whether or not this tea tastes like it but I can say that overall, it was quite a pleasant cup of tea. I’m not usually a fan of the nutty teas but this tea has a balance between sweetness, nuttiness a bit of fruitiness that works well together. I would definitely recommend this tea. I can’t say I liked it enough to want to stock up but I will have no problem finishing off the small amount I bought.

Flavors: Nutty

Bio

I am a tea fanatic and have also recently made the transition from vegetarian to vegan! I always have tea in my hand and in my overflowing cupboard!

I prefer black, green and white teas. I have recently discovered mate and oolongs. So far I’ve enjoyed them however, I have not tried very many. I am not often a fan of rooibos as I tend to find them overly woody but have found there to be some exceptions. As for herbals, I am only recently beginning to drink these on a regular basis (mostly iced) as the weather gets warmer, but these I am willing to try. I have not yet developped the taste for pu’erh.

I tend to only rate and review the teas I drink once (maybe twice if my opinion REALLY changes; especially if I were to have them prepared a different way). I currently only use Steepster for logging my reviews of David’s Tea although I do drink teas from many different companies. Every time I visit the store, I try something new in a cup to-go as I enjoy going through the tea menu and marking off teas as I try them. My goal is to try them all!

My rating system is as follows:
90-100: Wecome to my permanent collection! (worthy of a 100g tin!)

75-90: Definetly would drink again but maybe not all the time. I would buy a small amount (50g or less) to have once in a while.

50-75: I will finish the cup but not my favourite.

25-50: I will try to finish the cup but may not be able to.

0-25: Not my cup of tea…down the sink we go!
