Maddy Barone drank Strawberry Fields by DAVIDsTEA

768 tasting notes

So, I brewed up a two cup pot of this tea this morning. This is not one I will re-order, but it’s not as bad for me as for some others. I don’t have a sense of smell, so I really can’t tell you exactly what it tastes like, I only feel like it’s “off” somehow. And it’s a tiny bit bitter at the end of the sip. I drank most of the first cup and then waited for the second cup to go cold. it was better cold, but this is really not something I would choose to drink again. The skinny tin it came in is cute though, and fits in the cabinet where the larger tin wouldn’t.

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.
