97 Tasting Notes
Yes. YES. I had been looking for a legitimately clean tasting smooth creamy vanilla taste and THIS DELIVERS! This is pure bliss – it’s so milky and creamy tasting even without milk or cream added. Deliciously sweet just like a vanilla milkshake.
This is just all sorts of amazing.
Thank you so much VariaTEA for letting me sample this!
I woke up with swollen eyes this morning. Maybe I’m allergic to something :( Kinda odd though.
Preparation
How in the world do they do it?
How is it that a tea can taste just like a toasty marshmallow with chocolate, stuffed between two crumbly graham cracker squares?
Believe it or not, Della Terra’s done it again. And it is just divine on all levels. I was craving a chocolate tea and decided to go with this one – I am not disappointed at all. Not one bit. Man I love this company.
Preparation
This one comes my way of the dear VariaTEA. :) Thank you so much! You are just beyond awesome :)
Hoo boy, is this lemon. Like lemony lemon lemon. With quite a bit of sweet, like sucking on a lemon candy or eating lemon cake. Actually, more so the latter than the former. This tea definitely lives up to it’s name! I’m not the biggest fan of lemon cake – so right now, I have instant bias. This wouldn’t be the first thing I reach for in my drawer, but if I ever want lemon I know where to go.
Preparation
I am just all kinds of stressed right now, so I needed something soothing to calm myself and my stomach. I couldn’t really decide on anything until I got to good old Love Tea #7.
I just adore the chocolate strawberry combination in this one – it’s the best I’ve come across so far. You can taste the chocolate and it compliments the fruitiness of the strawberry. Just like drinking a chocolate-dipped strawberry. And I have no qualms about that. :)
Preparation
That’s ok – it’s nobodys fault but my own :) Just going through really tough times, that’s all.
Oh, I should get some somehow! I’ll be on the lookout for some…hopefully I’ll have money when I find some.
if you want I can send some your way…I have a decent collection of it and could never drink it all in my lifetime…I keep buying it too…haha
Really? That would be so, so nice of you – thank you so much!! Would you like me to give you my shipping address?
Hope the tea helped the nerves, Yvonne…I too know the feeling, Steepster is a good place to be to feel better sometimes:-)
Oh, it did! Thank you :) You have all been wonderful – I couldn’t ask to be with better people on a better site!
Had this at Tim Hortons today and actually went and took home a box! For $3.50, it seemed like a bit of a steal. I can’t believe how much I like this tea – it tastes like a spicy apple cider. Perfect for when I’m in an appley sort of mood.
I just…I don’t even know what to say, actually. I’m surprised! Thought this would be risky.
Preparation
Oh yeah, definitely keep an open mind. You never know when you’ll fall in love with the most unexpected of teas.
Oh, I don’t have any bias against bagged teas – there are some out there I quite like! Just didn’t think it would be anything from Tim Hortons, much less anything herbal!
I’m not too too big on berry flavoured teas…never have been, probably never will be. But I rather like this. The hibiscus turns me off slightly, grant you that, but here it seems to be more tolerable. The tea is tart and sweet like a strawberry – not like a jam, but actually….kinda like biting into one in a way. Makes me want real strawberries actually :P
Preparation
This sample was given to me by the incredibly lovely Missb! Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me :)
I can honestly say I’ve never had Baileys before. I’m just not an alcohol person. I do know what Irish cream tastes like however and I do seem to be getting it slightly in this tea. Unfortunately the tea falls flat however…I’m not getting any mint at all. I’m not really getting much of anything, actually – just the faint Irish cream taste and a little bit of sweet from the Stevia I added.
Preparation
I had this at a local cafe today with my mother and this was absolutely DEEEELICIOUS. What a wonderful orange taste! It smelled a little like orange dish soap, though – but tasty none the less.
I wish I would’ve resteeped this, but didn’t have the time. :( But it was wonderful while it lasted and something I’d definitely order again.
Preparation
Ho-oly CRAP. How is this tea so incredible? It LITERALLY tastes like biting into an fresh cinnamon bun. It is absolutely uncanny. I’m even getting the sweet icing glaze taste on my lips afterward. I am in so much taste bliss right now I can’t stand it. Della Terra, you are magic. There’s no other explanation.
I am going to cry when I run out of this sample.
Preparation
Thank you so much VariaTEA for this amazing sample! Couldn’t have tasted it without you :)
This is an odd one! As the tea cools down I’m starting to get a little peep of the banana, but I’m mostly getting an odd chocolatey but not quite chocolatey flavour that I can’t really pinpoint. I’m getting more and more of a Jello banana pudding vibe as it cools down further. This is quite good, but I don’t think I’d personally seek it.
Glad you liked it. Sorry to hear about your eyes though.
That’s ok! Just gotta figure out why it’s happening :/
Glad you found you’re perfect vanilla tea!
Hope your eyes get better…
Thank you :)
Hehe, me too! And it wouldn’t be possible without VariaTEA!
