676 tasting notes

Found myself at DavidsTea today after what felt like ages. Feeling thirsty and wanting something less sugary than the usual fare at the mall food court, decided to get a cup of this iced. For some reason, this reminded me of Mountain Dew but without the sugar. It was citrusy, with heavier pineapple than mango and tropical fruitiness in the background. The tea was sweetened but just barely so. Enough to bring out its natural sweetness without tasting sugary.

For an herbal, this was really tasty and worked perfectly in iced tea. I’m curious as to what it would taste like hot and unsweetened. I’d also like to see how it does blended with a straight tea. I may revisit this one once my Murchie’s Mango Green Tea runs out.

Flavors: Mango, Passion Fruit, Pineapple, Tropical

I have considered adding my DTs herbals, the ones I am not fond of, to the black teas I find a bit lacklustre. Might work.

That’s a great idea and I think it would work too. I often do this with half spent tea leaves. Some teas have to be blended with another to get the best out of them.

Evol Ving Ness

On it. I will report when this happens.

My Rating Criteria:

95 to 100: Top shelf stuff. Loved this tea and highly recommend it

90 to 94: Excellent. Enjoyed this tea and would likely repurchase

80 to 89: Good but not great. I liked it though it may be lacking in some aspects. I’ll finish it but probably won’t buy again

70 to 79: Average at best. Not terrible but wouldn’t willingly drink again

60 to 69: Sub-par. Low quality tea, barely palatable

59 and below: Bleh

Fell into tea many years ago and for a long time my experience was limited to Japanese greens and flavored Teavana teas. My tea epiphany happened when I discovered jade oolongs. That was my gateway drug to the world of high quality tea and teaware.

For the most part, I drink straight tea but do appreciate a good flavored tea on occasion. I love fresh green and floral flavors and as such, green tea and Taiwanese oolongs will always have a place in my cupboard. After avoiding black tea forever, Chinese blacks have started to grow on me. I’m less enthusiastic about puerh though. I also enjoy white tea and tisanes but reach for them less frequently.

Other non-tea interests include: cooking, reading, nature, philosophy, MMA, traveling when I can, and of course putzing around on the interwebs.
