299 Tasting Notes
This smells amaaazing and it’s pretty good! I love coconut and it’s super tasty with raspberry. It’s a bit snappish, gonna steep it a bit less next time.
Preparation
This tea is everything I hoped for! :D! It’s baaarely a black tea, though. A bit of tea in here, but mostly BLUEBERRIES. Got my David’s Tea boxing day stuff today – a little teapot (matches your mug, cavocorax!) and a beartail mug and little glasses and TEAS. \o/ Resteeping this due to laziness; we’ll see how it goes.
Preparation
Sweet! I was tempted to get the teapot but didn’t because my mom just got me a glass one. Which glasses? The bubble cups?
Hehe – beartail mug!
Sounds like a good tea.I’m digging the berry teas now! I feel like I need more Shanti Raspberry tea, or more Adagio Tardis tea!
I also got fantasy island which has raspberry apparently? But yeah, I reorg’d the tea shelf today and eeeep, I am drinking some down for a bit!! :P
Yes, the tiny glass-inside-a-glass ones! SO CUTE, so impractical. I needed the teapot because my infuser doesn’t fit my old teapot and it was impossible to get enough leaves under the waterline. You need more blooming teas for that pot!
Haha. I’m trying to do the same. I think I’ll be at 100 once all my orders come in. /0\
So cute! You can empty your teapot without the tea getting cold. I think mine are the same size.
Reeeally nicely appley (yyy) and cinnamony and it makes me want apple cinnamon oatmeal. Not picking up any yogurt, though. Was a nice evening caffeine free option! Thx cavocorax! :D
This tastes really simple and plainish for the amount of things that are apparently jammed into this blend (black tea, pineapple bits, mango bits, apple treaters, hazelnut leaves, sour cherry halves, flavour, sunflower blossoms, rose hip peels, rose blossom leaves, mallow blossoms, marigold blossoms, peppermint leaves). To me, it was dark/strong black tea with a bit of citrus/flowery on top. Nothing identifiable. Maybe that’s the goal with a blend like that, idk. Very breakfast-tea for me!
Preparation
So, Goji pop. Maybe I underleafed? Because ehhh, really light. The dry mix smells amazing, though, so maybe my expectations were too high. :P
That was last night.
Yeah Idk about this one. The samples in-store never were that great, but I have some in my mini-tin so maybe it’ll be better when I make it.
Crazy! I was considering checking out DT’s version. Guess I’ll stick with the one I have!
I didn’t realise they didn’t have stores out your way, and that the shipping was $15. I could probably pick some stuff up from Tea Desire and send it to you cheaper, if you ever need it!
I’ll send you some & you can see what you think! I’m gonna do the other one next and see if it was all in my head.
COOL, thanks. I’ve not looked at their stuff YET.
Thanks! I can do a tea-off! :D
Fair enough. I don’t know enough about them to know what’s great or not either.
