Maddy Barone drank Let It Snow by DAVIDsTEA

768 tasting notes

Today is December 1st, so I am pretty excited to get started on my 24 Days of Tea from David’s. This is the one for 12/1. It is very pretty in the little jar. It brewed up quite pale. I wasn’t sure if I under leafed it or if this is a normal result for green teas. I rarely drink green teas because I don’t care for them, so I wasnt’ sure. Green teas can taste like lawn clippings to me and that was a concern with this one.

I shouldn’t have worried. I couldn’t taste anything besides the sickening sweetness of the stevia. I forced half a cup down, but that was all I could take. I’m sure there are many tea drinkers who will enjoy this one. I however, will pass.

Bio

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
