206 tasting notes

My friend disliked this tea so strongly that she basically threw it at my face and yelled “NO TAKEBACKS.”
I tried it as a hot tea and didn’t care for it. It’s aggressively, gleefully, in-your-face Jolly-Rancher sweet — which is, to be fair, precisely what it bills itself as. Like Guy Fieri, it’s resolutely ITSELF.
However, I occasionally throw it into the gravity steeper with other (better) teas as an iced tea sweetener. It works very nicely for this purpose. Everything has its place.
That said, I can’t wait til this is a Sipdown.
If anybody ever wants to trade with me, I will absolutely throw in a few “free” teaspoons of this into your sampler. It’s really… an experience.

Bio

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, crafter, geek, and recent tea convert. I love teas that are sweet, zippy (caffeinated), and hopeful. In concrete terms, that’s usually black or maté tea, with some chocolate/vanilla/berry/nut in there somewhere. If it gives me the dessert experience without the calories, my heart soars.

I’m not a big fan of mint, grass (“yogi farts”), sours, or bitterness.

I’m into the idea of trading to try new things. If you think our flavor profiles coordinate, let me know, and we can swap boxes!
