DAVIDsTEA

Steeped up a mug of this last night to drink while indulging in some actual Granny Smith apples dipped in a super rich, thick caramel sauce. Don’t know how much further I could have doubled down on the caramel apple flavour profile. Obviously they complimented very well. I feel like the brightness and acidity of the actual apple slices made the caramel notes of the tea feel stronger than typical. Yummy!

Iced Latte!

For the last week now I’ve been craving this tea as an iced latte. As a general rule of thumb, I don’t actually have ice at home so I wasn’t able to make the drink the way I wanted at home. At work, I usually prefer to drink caffeinated teas. However, yesterday I finally just bit the bullet and made myself a very large tumbler of this as an iced oat milk latte in the afternoon – lack of caffeine be damned.

Oh, it was so good. So good that I almost feel bad describing it because I think we’ve actually already sold out of this online. It might still be in some stores, but it really did just fly off the “digital shelves” of the website. I was so nervous about this one because of all the things about Candy Apple that I mentioned in my last tasting note for this tea. So, it makes me really happy to see the good initial reception. Hopefully we restock it!

Anyway, the latte was smooth and not too sweet but with that scrumptious golden caramel note and the perfect hint of bright green apple. It was weirdly nostalgic, even though caramel apples aren’t a particularly nostalgic flavour for me.

We’re not done with new Fall teas yet! …Or, in this case, new Halloween teas.

Though I really personally enjoyed the Candy Apple tea that DT released a few years ago, it was perhaps not really the best received tea overall. One of the big points of criticism was that it had too many flavours/ingredients (like the cinnamon) that made it taste too far off from the typical glossy red candy apple most people were expecting.

I’ve personally wanted to make a Caramel Apple blend for ages, so when I started working on this tea I was really mindful of all the reviews I’d heard about Candy Apple. My biggest takeaway was to just keep it simple. So, well, that’s kind of what this is. A smooth and naturally sweet rooibos base that compliments the subtle creamy, golden caramel notes with a hint of bright green apple – but not bright/sour enough that this tea can’t be made into a latte. And, honestly, it’s a pretty dang good latte. Especially iced.

If I had to compare it to some other DT blends as a point of reference, I think the one it’s most similar to is Creme Caramel Rooibos. I find this a little more overtly caramel in taste, but right on par in terms of the intensity of the sweetness. It’s also naturally flavoured instead of artificially. Plus, no stevia. The other blend that I’m sure people will have in their heads is Salted Caramel Oolong because it’s DTs current caramel tea. This is definitely less intense than that one. So, I guess, somewhere in between the intensity of Creme Caramel Rooibos and Salted Caramel Oolong is the barometer I’d give people to set their expectations…

Overall I think this blend has a very “old school” DT feeling to it, which I do sense that people sometimes miss with the newer blends. I hope people enjoy this one as much as I have been…

The other new Superfood Latte Powder!

Obviously, this one is a riff on a Golden Milk recipe – and certainly there are a lot of golden milk/turmeric latte powders out there that exist. Honestly, of the two that were released, I find this one the least exciting. Obviously I have a huge amount of bias here, but I do think that this is one of the best (if not the best) golden milk mixes I’ve ever tried. Yes, even though there are so many iterations of this profile out there.

It’s turmeric forward as it should be, but the things that make this feel different to me are the inclusion of ginger and molasses powder. The ginger is kind of two-fold in why it was included. Firstly, it supports the functional benefits. Secondly, having that additional spice note adds more nuance/depth to the mix. Plus, I find this ginger powder in particular is very clean with a nice heat to it, so that also helps since turmeric can taste very earthy.

I know molasses is a bit more of a polarizing flavour, but we were very careful in how much was used in the formulation. We wanted the natural dark, dense sweetness that it adds without the bitterness or is becoming too invasive of a flavour. I think we pulled that off – it’s another layer of flavour in this more nuanced mix, and a heavier and more base-y one at that – which is great because the turmeric and ginger are a little more zesty and rest higher on the palate. Plus, the ginger and molasses combo has an ever so slight gingerbread like taste which I love (even though, personally, I don’t love turmeric).

Like the Ashwaganda Pumpkin Powder, this was developed specifically to be made in milk or milk alternatives. I love it with coconut milk. However, you can have it on its own as well – it’s just really intense tasting.

Iced Oatmilk Latte!

Looks like, ready or not, PSL season is officially here, so I’m hopping on the bandwagon and enjoying an Ashwagandha Pumpkin Powder iced latté. This tea is from a launch about a week ago where DAVIDsTEA fairly quietly dropped two brand new latte powders as part of a new “Superfood Latte” line up – this one and one inspired by Golden Milk. They’re a bit like the Superfood Hot Chocolate powders from a few years ago, but also kind of like the Blume powders that feel like they’re everywhere right now.

I really enjoyed the process of working on this powder!! Essentially, we wanted to make a more functional and better for you spin on the classic PSL or Pumpkin Chai – but without sacrificing the mix of traditional pumpkin spices that people know and love or compromising on the taste. That last point was a big one. The first versions of this powder were basically like pumpkin soup, so there was a lot of tweaking that had to be done to get this perfect!

I think we nailed it, though! Even if you don’t know what the heck ashwagandha is (an adaptogenic spice that is linked with stress reduction) or care about the functional side of the product at all, this is such an easy to make and delicious pumpkin spice tea. Basically, you take a teaspoon or so and just mix it up in hot milk. They were developed specifically to be made with milk (or milk alternatives), but you can make this in straight water too – just fair warning that it’s intensely flavoured. With this one in particular, I’ve also been having fun mixing it with different things like popcorn (as a seasoning) or in my morning yogurt. The autumnal notes of cinnamon, ginger and clove are so cozy, and the oat milk adds such a rich creaminess to the taste and texture!

Definitely not soup anymore!

I think I should get bonus points for embracing pumpkin season by making it in a cute new pumpkin mug from Indigo/Chapters, as well.

When Roswell Strange first posted about this one 6 months ago, I was disappointed that it was an in-store exclusive since there sadly aren’t any DavidsTea stores left in the U.S. (or at least not in or near my city). So when it was released online – along with Jelly Donut, which I had already been waiting for the site to restock so I could try it – I made that purchase so fast it’d make your head spin.
I’m pleased to report that this blend does not disappoint. At the moment I’m having it as an oat milk latte, which is really upping the “cream” angle, but it’s flavorful and well-balanced without additions too. I really like the peach flavor here: sweet and ripe without being completely candy-like. The whole blend just works, in a deceptively simple way. So so glad they released it online!

I had to grab a sample from a previous TTB after I smelled how rich and chocolatey this tea is. Then I accidentally left my mug at home and didn’t realize until I’d gotten to work! It was tasty despite sitting on the counter all day. It just has a lovely, deep, rich flavor. It has a lot going on despite being unflavored.

To me, this mostly tastes like sweet almonds and a bit of green tea. I don’t taste matcha or ice cream. I think I liked this better before I added milk. It’s okay, but there’s something a little fake and strange here. Still a fun find from the latest Reddit TTB!

Cold Brew!

Had this last night and it was soooo incredibly refreshing. When I was sick with Covid I was drinking a lot of bottled smoothies because the cold temp was so nice on my throat and it was good way to keep my fruit/veg intake up without expending a lot of energy cooking or even just slicing things up. My favourite was a strawberry banana smoothie – and this it definitely kind of reminiscent of that. More emphasis on the strawberry than the banana, but both coming together to create something fresh and creamy. I also got a lot of coconut in this particular infusion so that flavour was pretty pronounced too, but it only doubled down on the creaminess which made the smoothie vibes even stronger.

New Tea!

This is part of the batch of teas that launched a few weeks back (as an online exclusive) – I’m just a little late getting my tasting note for it up. I’m really excited for this tea to finally launch, as I first started working on it all the way back in 2020 after the first initial months of pandemic lock down. For the last couple of years I’ve been drinking this tea semi regularly (I have a kilo bag I’ve nearly sipped through) just waiting to finally be able to get to talk about it…

As I think I’ve said before, it’s always been just wild to me that after ten years of tea blends DAVIDsTEA had never tackled a Strawberry Banana profile when that’s something so classic, nostalgic and delicious!! So, I tackled it. My inspiration was a Strawberry Banana Smoothie, which is why there’s coconut in this blend in addition to the fresh, sweet strawberry and banana notes. The coconut adds creaminess not just to the taste but also a slight thickness to the mouthfeel as well. You can slightly taste the coconut, but for the most part I think it just blends into the already slightly creamy and tropical vibe of the banana and the overall creaminess of the blend.

This isn’t just creamy though. That’s a part of it, yes, but it works alongside other ingredients like hibiscus which acts as an amplifier to the fresh ripe strawberry notes and the oolong tea base which has a slight floral character which adds some depth and nuance to the profile. Because of that hibiscus, you can’t latte this blend but I do think it really stands on its own. Hot, yes. However, especially iced or cold brewed.

I don’t know – I just wanted to make something with those strong strawberry and banana notes but that was already really fun, playful and just packed in with flavour. I love all the blends I get to work on, but not everything is that’s developed has an end tea drinker like myself in mind when creating them. This one, though, really overlaps with my own personal tea preferences. I drink it very regularly.

This tea smells lovely in the bag, and I enjoyed the flavor profile. I would have liked it to be a bit more robust and I found the tea to be rather weak. I would and will drink it again, but not sure I would buy it a second time

Iced Latte!

I was recording some video content today for work with this tea, and I had an absolutely frustrating moment where I finished what I was working and went to save my video and realized I’d never hit record. So, I had to reset everything and do it again.

The silver lining to that is that I got to enjoy not one but two iced lattes of this tea today and that kind of made the headache worth it. It was rich, bold and roasty with a perfect hint of creaminess from the milk. Very, very good! And thankfully the second video came out well.

Iced Latte!

Made this one yesterday at the office following lunch, and it was probably my favourite tea of the day. Usually I would use three or four perfect spoons for a latte, but I really wanted something VERY bold, strong and roasty/earthy so I actually went with closer to six spoons for a insanely long steep time. It was wild watching this steep in the gravity infuser because it almost looked like it had the type of crema gathering around the rim that a pulled espresso shot might have.

After steeping my pitch black concentrate I finished off my latte with some oat milk. Honestly, this was insane tasting in the best kind of way. One of the most heavily roasted tasting and earthy drinks I’ve made in months but with that thicker, creamy mouthfeel from the oats and a hint of dark chocolate/carob in the finish. Maybe the most coffee-like I’ve ever had this tea taste? Though also clearly had distinct roasted chicory notes too. It was so exactly what I need though.

Fucking love this tea.

Sipped on this one today since I just got a big kilo bag to add to my not-so-secret stash of teas at my desk. Basically, it’s just a pile of eight or so of my favourite DT blends that I drink pretty often while at work – Cranberry Pear, Blueberry Jam, Morning Detox, etc. It’s kind of a big honor (at least in my books) for this tea to be a part of that mix now.

Anyway I made this super strong for a mug of tea that looked essentially pitch black except for a slight break in colour at the rim that was more of a red/brown hue. Really earthy and roasty from all the roots in the blend with a strong coffee-like flavour and just a hint of carob and chocolate sweetness to round out the sip. No cream or anything. Black like my soul.

Oh hey, another new tea!

As y’all may have noticed here on Steeped I got arguably a little too into coffee replacement teas this past year. Though I found some I enjoyed, for the most part I found that a lot of them were really aggressively chicory forward to the point of being quite bitter and unpleasant. And I know that bitterness is an expectation with a coffee replacement because, well, coffee is bitter. However, I just knew I could create something more balanced that was every bit as functional.

…and here it is! Coffee Break! I have to say, I’m really proud of the double entendre of that name. It’s one of my favourite ones I’ve come up with.

People tend to cut out or reduce their coffee consumption for two big reasons; either because of the caffeine content or the acid content/effect on their stomachs. Because of that, this is an entirely caffeine free blend that is packed full of gut friendly, low acid, and inulin rich ingredients like chicory (obviously), dandelion root, and carob. However, those first two do a great job of adding the distinct and much needed roasty/earthy flavours for a coffee replacement but they also tend to be pretty harsh in their bitterness, astrigency, and earthiness – so I tried to balance them out with natural, low glycemic sweeteners like dates and monk fruit that would play into the more “dense” and “brown tasting” direction the blend needed to move towards.

The overall result is a thick, robust and really strong cup of tea with all the body and and tasting notes you’d expect to be present with just a hint of natural sweetness and a very mild chocolate note to give an almost mocha-like twist (a gentle one though) that also contrasts against the roasty roots. If you want more of that black coffee kind of profile, you can always add more leaf or steep longer and the acidic top notes of the chicory and overall bitterness will come through more clearly. However, this is also stellar as both a hot or iced latte for a more cappuccino/mocha or “Starbucks equivalent” kind of vibe.

I know I am, of course, filled with bias but I genuinely think it’s the best standard/baseline coffee replacement tea that I’ve ever tried. Though Teeccino has some very fun (and delicious) flavoured versions, my personal opinion is that this is better than their original or mocha flavours. Just as robust, but more balanced overall. I’ve been drinking it so much over the last year or so. Hot and plain or cold brewed are my favourite prep styles, personally. Maybe a splash of milk.

I think it’s a super cool addition to DT’s line – and honestly, for a company that carries tea with coffee in it, I think it’s strange that it took so long for us to have a proper coffee replacement blend.

Had this one with my lunch today as a milkshake! Basically, I ordered lunch and got a plain vanilla shake with my food with the intent to add a matcha or hojicha powder to it. It definitely took a little longer to get it evenly mixed in than when I’ve done this with matcha before and I’m actually not sure why, but dang did it taste good. Really roasty and nutty with more of the peanut flavour coming out and just a nice hint of cocoa powder. Very yummy!

Iced Latte!

A coworker was making a bit batch of lattes for herself and a bunch of desk mates, and very kindly offered to include me in the big batch of drinks she was prepping. It was very smooth with a lovely chocolate milk sort of vibe with some soft nutty undertones. Personally, I probably would have made this a little stronger for myself to get more roastiness out of the hojicha but it’s hard to be too critical when iced lattes just show up at your desk without having to lift a finger in the process…

As I said earlier today there are a handful of new teas that launched this past week and one of them (maybe the one I’m most excited about) is this one! It’s a first for DAVIDsTEA as we’ve never carried hojicha powder before.

As I think most people here on Steepster know, I fucking love hojicha. Straight. Flavoured. Powdered. It’s all just fanastic. I own so, soooo many different hojichas in my personal collection and it’s just an ingredient that I get so excited about whenever I have an oppertunity to professionally work with it. I think it’s just so distinct and delicious – and the powder form is honestly just the next natural evolution to not only DAVIDsTEA’s matcha assortment (I know it’s not the same, but it’s made the exact same way) but the matcha boom/trend that’s been taking place in North America for the last handful of years. It’s honestly wild to me that flavoured hojicha powder hasn’t really hit the market yet…

So, all that to say that getting to put my own stamp on hojicha powder as a product not just for DT but within the industry as a whole was pretty incredibly meaingful to me both personally and professionally.

So what does this taste like? Well, it’s hojicha forward for sure which means it’s got that lovely, dark roasty flavour of different grains and nuts with a hint of caramel or coffee. Perfectly suited to really compliment the peanut butter and chocolate notes of this tea! We did initially try doing this blend using chocolate flavouring, but chocolate flavouring really just couldn’t deliver the richness that I felt the tea needed in order to stand up to the hojicha itself. That’s why we switched to cocoa powder, which adds to both the mouthfeel and the taste. The peanut element was very cool because we ended up using a totally peanut (and nut in general) free natural roasted peanut flavouring which means that the blend is actually allergy friendly. Hooray for accessibility!

On its own, I do find it a little bit harder to distinctly taste the peanut butter notes as they blend very seamlessly into the natural nuttiness of the hojicha itself. Where this tea really shines is when you make it as a latte (or even just add a splash of milk) – both hot or iced. The creaminess accentuates both the chocolate and peanut butter type flavours and makes this feel like a more elevated or mature Reese’s peanut butter cup profile. So decadent but not as superficially sweet tasting.

I’ve gotta say that I really hope this does well because boy oh boy would I like to release more flavoured hojicha powders. I have many, many ideas of different flavours that would be so fun to explore!

Long time no tasting notes. Well, okay, it’s been like a week. That feels like a long time to me, though…

In that week, several new teas have launched alongside a bunch of returning fan favourites. I’ll write tasting notes for all of the new ones shortly, but I’m starting with this mushroom boosted matcha. It’s a relatively simple organic blend of matcha with four adaptogenic mushrooms: reishi, chaga, cordyceps, and lion’s mane. Our first time ever carrying the last two mushrooms, in particular. In case my dear Steepster friends have forgotten, I am allergic to mushrooms. So, take a moment for that to sink in.

I fully developed a mushroom matcha without ever tasting it. I mean, I’m pretty proud of myself for this one! I had to rely heavily on other people to taste it for me so we could get the balance right. I don’t know from personal experience because, well, I can’t drink them. But I’ve looked at A LOT of different functional mushroom products (ie. Four Sigmatic, Mud Water, etc) and the big common criticisms that I see are that the texture is pasty/chalky or gritty and that they taste too much like soup/broth. So the big goal with this matcha was to create something that just tasted like, well, matcha. Same texture. Same taste. No added flavourings to mask anything or sweeteners. Just a nice, functionally boosted matcha.

Well, as I do with every mushroom tea that makes it to market, I’ve tasted this tea EXACTLY ONCE. Just a sip. Which was then spit out. I’m sorry – yes, allergies are really serious but my personal and professional curiosity is just too much to not taste it at least once. I need to understand what we’re selling!

So… did I succeed? I think so! Really, the mouthfeel is so impressive to me. When dealing with microground powders it’s so hard to get a smooth consistency and I really found this to be identical to the matcha itself. No grit. No chalk. I’m very happy with that. As for the taste, it tasted maybe just a smidge earthier than a typical matcha? Not in a way that says soup stock or unpleasantly savory/bitter, though! If you hadn’t told me there were four kinds of mushrooms in this blend and I’d drank a cup then I’m confident I’d have just thought it was a grade or varietal of matcha that had a little more natural earthiness. I also probably would have gotten really sick from drinking a full cup – but that’s a me problem. Damn allergies preventing me from being involved with BIG industry trends! Such a personal frustration…

Anyway, that’s Super Shroom Matcha! I think it’s such a great addition to this rapidly growing market of adaptogenic mushroom products. I honestly don’t know if this is true now, but at the time we developed it (like, years ago) it was the ONLY mushroom boosted matcha product I’d ever seen before. I’ve seen chaga matcha now, but not anything with all four of the mushrooms. One of the hardest teas I’ve worked on just ‘cause of my personal limitations, but I’m heckin’ proud of it.

It smells a little weird, but tastes delicious – how can you go wrong with chocolate and mint?

I’ve found this one to be best cold. It tastes like an even mix of fruity and herbaceous flavors. I don’t love it, but I’ve almost finished my 2 oz bag, so it must be decent enough! There’s nothing fake or too tart in there.

Adventagedon Day 11

Matcha latte!

I had a bunch of strawberries in the fridge that I needed to use up, so I was kind of hoping today would be Strawberry Matcha – however, Vanilla was basically the next best thing. I ended up turning those strawberries into a sort of jam/puree situation combined with some fresh vanilla bean caviar, and then used that on the bottom layer of a matcha latte to create this sort of “strawberries and cream” concoction that was very, very good. Plus, I made the matcha strong enough that it really did hold up to that bright jammy berry sweetness quite well.

Now I’ll just need to think of something different to do with strawberry matcha when that one inevitably pops up.
