Ost drank Red Velvet Delight by Della Terra Teas

737 tasting notes

So the last couple times I had this tea it didn’t taste that great for some reason-it was the same with DavidsTea’s Birthday Cake too. Like around the same time. Don’t know if it was a med I was on or what but it tasted like just wood, water, and sugar. Lots of sugar. xD
But this week I’ve given this one another try since I got this one sometime last summer, so it’s one of my oldest teas that I must sip down!
Think I got about maybe 3oz or so left?
I’ve drank this one a couple times over the weekend and then again today-and holy shanghai! That’s the Red Velvet Delight I remember! :D :D Super stoked that it tastes right again! This has been a favorite and I’d have hated to waste it :(
Anywho!
So freakin’ good. If Della Terra Teas for sure re-opens and this tea is available, hopefully they’ve not changed it-because like I said in another tasting note-trying to find other teas that are just as good as the ones from DT because I keep getting crappy CS. Sooo I need replacements xD
Anywho! This one will do for now! Kinda curious to try Birthday Cake now though since this one tastes like I remember, maybe Birthday Cake will too?
But then they’ll just suck me back in..oy.
Anywho! Fantastic Tea! :D

Flavors: Maple, Maple Syrup, Smooth, Sugar, Sweet

I don’t know if you saw or not, but they are offering mystery boxes right now on their facebook page.

Unfortunately they haven’t updated in a couple weeks, and their website is down. So I’m not sure what’s happening there. :/

Yeah, But I am thinking it’s the last of their teas that no one wanted to buy…and that I wasn’t interested in soo. :S I didn’t wanna buy it. Plus I don’t like mystery things, Nichole :P

Bio

I’m not too sharp with intros, but I figured it is about time to give it a go.
I started out drinking oolong and green tea that my dad brought home from his China business trips.
Then I discovered Teavana, and fell in love with some of their teas. Eventually I stumbled across Steepster, and a whole ‘nother world opened up.
Have discovered so many different kinds of teas, and have been loving this journey! The tea world is insanely big and amazing! And I’ve met some of the kindest people here who have broadened my horizons in more ways I could have imagined! Happy to be here, and to be drinking so many amazing teas! :D

My rating system:
1-59: Really really not a fan. An awful cup of tea for me…Totally undrinkable.

60-69: Not horrible, but not something I’d ever drink again willingly.

70-79: Pretty good. Wouldn’t mind drinking ever so often. But not a keeper.

80-100: FREAKIN’ AMAZING. Always keeping on stock in my home!!

I like pretty much any kind of tea except green tea. Unless it’s genmaicha or strongly flavored, I don’t like it usually.

My Tea Goals:
To find the Best Caramel Tea
To find the Best Vanilla Tea
To find the Best floral Oolong
To find the Best Malty Assam Tea
To find the Best Maple/Syrup Tea

Notes I like: Fruit(primarily peach, melon/honeydew, Banana, Kiwi, but I’m open to other kinds), Malt, Desserts (Toffee, Cake, Cookie,etc), Vanilla, Caramel, Floral, Sweet potato, Pastry/Bread,Jasmine, Honey, Cocoa, Chocolate, Maple, Nutty, Coconut, Almond.

Notes I’m Picky with: Lemon, Chai, Roasted, Blueberries, Hibiscus, Smoke, Earthiness, Puerhs, White Teas, and Cinnamon

Notes I hate: Citrus/Orange (Everything that I hate in this life that I have to take for my health is orange flavored, and it just makes me gag…so please…just no), Watermelon, Raspberry, Wood, Apple, Bacon, Lavender, Most mints, Pepper, Spicy, Tart/sour.

Yes, I am a picky tea drinker, but I’ll usually try any straight black or oolong tea that I receive. I like most oolongs, and I’m still discovering straight blacks. They always seem to surprise me no matter what!

And Swaps! I’m always down for swapping. Everything in my cupboard is swap-able. So just hit me up and send a message and we can totally do that!

On an unrelated to tea note, my other interests are limited due to health issues. But when I can, I enjoy reading and writing. Watching Netflix and YouTube have also been fantastic when I feel awful (which is most of the time).
I love Rifftrax, Rooster Teeth, Dexter, Hannibal, BBC’s Robin Hood, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Psych, and Parks and Rec.
Love watching all sorts of movies too, but that would be too much to list. :P
I’m definitely more of an internet person and love talking to people on every website I’m on. So if you ever wanna chat, shoot me a message! ^^
