18 Tasting Notes
I thought this tea was fantastic for the first few cups. However, after a while I started to taste a weird flavor in the background which I don’t care for. This blend is amazingly caramel-y and sweet. It has a slight burnt-sugary taste as well. I think the ‘burnt’ part might be the part I dislike.
Preparation
A light earl grey mixed with bitter irish breakfast and a pinch of cinnamon. Its an odd tea, but its good. Not an everyday tea for me, but definitely drinkable. I don’t think I’ll buy more, but I definitely will drink what I’ve got.
Preparation
Oh wow. Bought this for the fandom reference, obviously. I am not a fan of lapsang souchong, to be honest. It’s a bit strong for me. So when I opened this and it was a spiced lapsang souchong, I knew I was not going to love this blend, as much as I adore Mr. Holmes. I wasn’t sure how I was going to even USE this tea for a while. Then, on a whim, I mixed it with a package of hot cocoa mix. And it was delicious. Not drinkable alone for me, because its flavor profile is just not my cuppa. However, with the hot cocoa mix, I love it.
Preparation
I am not a fan of teavana, as they overcharge and upsell into oblivion. However, this tea. THIS TEA. It’s so good. Spicey, slightly sweet.. I don’t even know what spices I can tase, they all blend into one, sharp-on-the-tongue spice. I love this with a bit of sugar.
Preparation
I enjoyed this tea a lot. The white blueberry is very light and sweet, the hazelnut is, in a word, cozy, and the cinnamon brings both flavors together very well. I taste Hazelnut the most, but the blueberry follows closely after with a lingering cinnamon flavor
Preparation
This tea is very coffee like, in a great way. The chocolate chai gives it a light spiced taste, and a cocoa powdery like mouthfeel. The irish breakfast brings a little bitterness, and the hazelnut is warm and nutty. All in all, one of my favorites
