A very lovely friend of mine in Holland sent this over, as she read me waxing lyrical about the Red Velvet Cake tea from DavidsTea. She’d had the Strawberry Cupcake one, which she has also sent me, and really liked it. I will try that one soon.
The smell of this tea is lovely. Really sweet and fruity. Unfortunately the taste doesn’t live up to it. It’s not horrible, not by a long shot, but the nose makes promises that the tastebuds can’t keep.
I did only steep it for 2 minutes, the recommendation being 2-3, so next time I’ll leave it longer and maybe the taste will be on a par with the smell. But on first taste, this is unfortunately underwhelming.
