drank Pistachio Macaron by DAVIDsTEA
2578 tasting notes

When I was a kid, pistachios were too expensive for our family to buy. As an adult, I enjoy always having pistachios in my pantry as a sort of indulgence, and I use them in all sorts of recipes. I’ve made pistachio macarons before, and this tea is nothing like its name. I was surprised when this ended up very fruity and floral. There’s so much rose in here – why? The resteep was much too rosey. When I drink this cold, I do sort of enjoy it. It’s a decently refreshing fruity floral blend, but the name is all wrong. Though there are some whole pistachios in the bag, they don’t contribute anything to the flavor. I drank about four cups of this, and I don’t think I’ll have more since I’m tired of the rose.

I feel the same way about good quality roasted cashews!

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
