I went 0/3 on new David’s Teas I ordered. And not even kind of okay. I threw out the whole cup of each one. This one was the most egregious.
The initial flavor as the tea hits the mouth is super tasty. Dark and roasty and nutty and then suddenly you’re hit like a truck with this AWFUL fake sweet black LICORICE bomb that goes off in your mouth. I seriously almost vomitted. The initial flavor lulled me into a false state of calm and then BOOM the worst flavor in the whole world took over my whole mouth.
I was stupid enough to see if it was an aberration so I tried again and nearly gagged again.
Worst.Tea.Ever.
David’s – Our relationship is officially over. (Except when I need some movie night, that’s the only one I truly enjoy, but no new teas. Nope. Not worth the risk)

Eek. I knew there was a reason I didn’t even bother trying this one.
I also agree with your last bit there. I have guayusa and genmaicha from David’s but I haven’t tried any new ones in a while.
EW. Why would they even put licorice in there. That is already a hit-or-miss flavor for a lot of people.
Very funny. Well, maybe not for your taste buds.
When I originally ordered this one, licorice wasn’t an ingredient. Imagine my surprise! So terrible. :(
LMAO! I got this as a sample once, tried it and had a very bad experience… Just like yours. Imagine my delight when I got it as a sample again (!) with my latest order. I was going to give it another try… but after reading your review and remembering my own… I’m kind of scared… lol
