I think I prefer Teavana’s Caramel Almond Amaretti. This one has a tartness that the other doesn’t – possibly because the ratio of apple to other things is higher in this tea.

It’s still a good tea. I’m going to have to brew them side-by-side to better compare.

ETA: I just brewed a mug of Caramel Almond Amaretti. Forever Nuts is definitely tarter. The almond and cinnamon flavor is stronger in the Teavana tea. I also smelled the dried tea – the Teavana tea also smells more complex – more spices and flavors than David’s Tea. Interesting.

I’m a tea-aholic. I’ve always loved tea. It is soothing and warm and comforting. I always had it when we went out to eat as a child so my first association is with rich and delicious food.

As an adult, I’m learning to enjoy tea on its own merits, and bask in its subtleties and varieties. The ritual of making a cup of tea is instantly relaxing.

I prefer oolong and white teas, followed by greens. For the most part, I don’t like straight black tea, but appreciate it as part of a blend or flavored. I’ve learned to love the world of flavored teas out there.

I’m slowly learning to appreciate rooibos blends, which I started drinking for its anti-inflammatory properties.

Love: Oolong, almond, coconut, peach
Hate: Ginger
