Maddy Barone drank Pure Chai by DAVIDsTEA

767 tasting notes

This came as a sample with the latest David’s Tea order. I’m not a chai lover. All my friends are surprised by that because I love cinnamon, ginger, and all those spices. My favorite kind of hot chocolate is the spicy Mexican Hot Chocolate. But for some reason chai just doesn’t do it for me. This one isn’t bad as chais go. I liked it enough to finish the two-cup pot I made, and I am glad I had the chance to try it. Even for someone without a sense of smell, the cinnamon made itself known. But this won’t be one I order.

Flavors: Cinnamon

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 15 sec

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
