237 Tasting Notes
OoooooOooooooooOooooh. My first thought was spinach, followed by butter, asparagus, and grass. It tastes like fall rain. Definitely not what I was expecting, but a pleasant surprise nonetheless. Am I the only one tasting the faintest bit of licorice? There is a lot to love about this tea. It is lovely.
Preparation
Mmmm….Thank God for this tea. It’s a bit toasty, and does remind me of sponge toffee. There’s a teeny tiny hint of saltiness, and just the right amount of caramel. This tea is beautiful, it is not overpowering and it just wraps me in a warm blanket of happiness when I drink it. I am in love.
Preparation
VERY sweet, not mentioning the fact that I added rock sugar, not knowing it was already sweetened. Made it iced, I like the idea behind the tea, but it wasn’t very good. I’ll still give it another chance as I find it tastes of pink lemonade en masse, which I love. Next time, no sugar.
Bought this online and am now looking to exchange it for something else. I do not taste maple here at all. To me, it tastes like a dead wrinkled up maple leaf that’s been picked from the dirt and steeped. So sad to think that for the same price I could’ve just bought real maple syrup.
UPDATE: I had this one iced and it is MUCH more palatable. I did add some rock sugar, but the maple syrup taste IS there, and it is quite lovely actually. I will up my rating from 19 to 69, but not any higher since in my opinion, this tea would be much more enjoyable warm if it had the right flavour.
Update again: No wait, 69 is still too high. 50.
Everything I’ve ever wanted from a chai, it’s spicy, has depth and makes me feel warm and fuzzy. I taste cinnamon, cloves, pepper and coconut…The taste reminds me of the smell of allspice with a soft sweetness hidden somewhere in the middle. It is truly wonderful
Preparation
This has a bit too much going on for me. The taste is good, but overwhelming. There are too many flavours trying to shine through and it’s making my taste buds shut down. If my taste buds had thoughts, they would be ’ Banana! Honeydew! Papaya! Mango! Coconut?! Some kind of tropical Kool-Aid! What am I tasting?? WHAT IS GOING ON RIGHT NOW?? Wow. ’
Preparation
Hmm…I taste honey and…peaches almost? There is a bit of grass, but nothing overwhelming. This tea is very good, I like the fact that I question myself about the tastes on my tongue, instead of the usual BAM OK THIS IS (insert super obvious flavour here). It is very mysterious this one.
