Oh my, two tasting notes in one day? The busyness of summer must really be over.
I got this vanilla tea to compare to my favorite comfort tea from SFherb, and I didn’t check the ingredients closely, this has jasmine in it!
I thought I might need a side by side taste test, or that I wouldn’t like the jasmine, but I didn’t need to worry. SFherb vanilla is a single note, and Maya tea vanilla is a whole vanilla wafer or sugar cookie. The floral note waits until the end and is very subtle, unless I had read the package I wouldn’t be able to tell the jasmine was there. I really want to like this tea, it starts so well, but there is a soapy, astringent aftertaste that lingers after the vanilla cookie goodness. Once I noticed the aftertaste, it kinda lost its luster and I need a cup of SFherb vanilla to rinse my mouth out.
If you like jasmine and vanilla let me know and I’ll send you a sample.
Flavors: Floral, Sweet, Vanilla
There was really lovely jasmine and vanilla green tea that a local tea shop in my area used to sell at the market but they unfortunately shut down. Have you tried blending this one with another black tea?
That’s a good idea, maybe an Assam (awesome tea) or a Yunnan with soften the edges here.
