31 Tasting Notes
I would say this tastes pretty close to a cinnamon heart candy. The cinnamon is very, very strong in it. I also get an appley/orangey taste. This is not something I would consider as a chai normally. Too much cinnamon for me. But, if you’re a fan of the spice, you’d be a fan of this tea for sure.
Flavors: Apple, Cinnamon
Preparation
YES!!! This is so awesome. I’ve finally found a black tea that I don’t find to be icky/bitter tasting. I don’t find that it goes bitter as it steeps so I just leave it in the tea ball until I’m done. To me, the longer it steeps, the better it seems to taste.
Overall it’s a delicious pick-me-up!! (Also tastes great with some german rock sugar)
Flavors: Chocolate, Peppermint, Sweet
Preparation
Mmm, smells just like a key lime pie, the taste could be a bit stronger for my liking, but it’s still very nice. I love being able to get my dose of green sencha in a tasty, creamy, sweet limey form! I tried it iced, but to be honest, I like it better hot…
Combined with milk, this tea is DE-VINE. (Upped the rating!)
Flavors: Creamy, Lime, Vegetal
Preparation
This may sound strange, but the scent/taste of this tea reminds me of… milk. I don’t get much coconut out of this. The minute I smelled it, I thought, “hmm. smells like milk.” When I tasted it, it was like just drinking a hot cup of milk lol! With a slight taste of oolong. Yeah, not a fan of this one. But you get a lot for 30 grams!!
Flavors: Milk, Vegetal
I couldn’t believe the smell of this tea – it smells JUST like a fresh vanilla cake. Unfortunately, like many teas, it doesn’t taste the way it smells. Not to say this isn’t good – I just got more of a bland, straight oolong taste. Not much vanilla. I may try sweetening it with rock sugar.
Preparation
This tea has a beautiful taste. The first sip, I wasn’t so sure. But as I continued to drink it, it just got better and better.
I can taste ginger, spice, and creamy coconut. A nice spicy aftertaste was left in my mouth even about half an hour after finishing the tea. I didn’t add any milk or sweetener to this yet the creaminess of the coconut did it’s job fully. I am pleased, especially since this is a fairly inexpensive tea!
EDIT: Upped the rating on this one to 100. I think it’s safe to say this is my new favourite tea. Tastes GREAT as a latte! Took advantage of DAVID’S web special… got their Chai Collection buy one get one free! Can’t WAIT for it to arrive!
Also, I forgot to mention before, this tea can be steeped as long as you need. The flavour gets better the longer it steeps, so I just leave mine in the tea ball and I’m good to go.
Flavors: Creamy, Ginger, Spices, Sweet
