184 Tasting Notes
My last cup of this tea until next wintertime. I put in more tea because I just don’t have enough for another cup, but didn’t want to waste it.
I like it strong (and sweet). It just tastes like holidays, Christmas, holiday party with just the right spice. I can taste the peppercorns and the orange. This is one good cuppa!
I’ll miss this until next winter, but on to summer-type blends!
Preparation
I don’t have a lot of experience with hazelnuts, except in Nutella (which isn’t exactly a wholesome way of eating hazelnuts)!
I liked this tea. I like the hazelnut taste, which is different than other nuts. The black tea base was pretty mellow, and the hazelnut taste comes through well.
Preparation
Good tea…spicy yet sweet (although I always do sweeten my teas). I wanted to go to my drive-thru coffee shop this morning and get the Caramelizer, which is WAAAAY too many calories, so I thought I would substitute this tea instead.
Not quite the same thing, but I do love the caramel/vanilla addition to spicy chai.
Preparation
I don’t think I’ve had any pu’erh before, so this is my first one.
I do like the citrus and ginger. The cup doesn’t taste as tangy as I thought it would…which is probably the other stuff that is also there. I think this is a nice well-rounded cup of tea.
Preparation
Having a pretty lazy Saturday wile the hubby is out of town, and kids aren’t bothering me too much. Daughter asked for tea (running out of French Toast tea…her favorite!), and I decided to make some of this.
Nice and relaxing…a tang in there, but nice and mellow.
Preparation
I don’t normally have much luck with peach in tea (which is weird, because I really like peaches when I eat them), but this one is doing OK. Nothing special…just a fruity-peachy tea. I might not be the biggest fan of oolong, but I don’t think black would have worked well here.
Preparation
I bought this tea online, thanks to being able to sample it from MissB.
My other lemon is a lemon chai, and this one is much mellower. I need mellow today, as I listen to my coworker talk about her personal drama for the…what….6th day in a row? I need mellow!!!!
Preparation
It tasted like a weak Almond Joy to me. I’m just not having any luck today trying these new flavors. Yesterday, I had one that was really good…but just not feeling the love from this cup. There was nothing that ‘popped’ for me in this tea.
