Yawn Advent Calendar: Day 1
Treated myself to this calendar because I’ve wanted to try this company for a while! I also got one for my sister so we can do it together (from afar), since her birthday is at the end of November.
I wasn’t totally sold on this blend based on the scent alone — it has that not-quite-chocolate scent that sometimes turns me off and often translates to a lackluster flavor. But the brewed cup is actually delicious! It’s got big chocolate-covered cherry vibes, moreso than cake, but that’s not a bad thing. The cherry is super present and juicy, much more than I’d expected. I steeped it for about 4 minutes and it’s on the verge of being oversteeped, so I’ll probably adjust for my second cup. I might also try it with some NotMilk, because I imagine that’d round out the flavors nicely.
Overall, a great start to this calendar and a really yummy dessert tea.
Flavors: Cherry, Chocolate
This one smells super chocolatey and tastes like chocolate-covered cherries. The long and diverse list of ingredients confuses me, because in the end it still tastes straight-up like chocolate-covered cherries, so I’m not sure what—if anything—all those other ingredients add to the mix.
Be a little careful steeping this one. In my thus far limited experience of Yawn tea, the black tea base they use tends to get bitter pretty quickly. I’d stay close to the three-minute mark and be generous with the cream and/or sweetener, if that’s your kind of thing.
If you like chocolate-covered cherries, I think you’ll like this one. I love them and love this. And while I couldn’t find any info about particular certifications, this is vegan.
Flavors: Cherry, Chocolate
I had this calendar a few years back (when they were called Tea Revv) and considered buying it again, but I haven’t yet. It was definitely a mixed bag, but there were a few in there that I really enjoyed!
AJRimmer, yeah, I’m curious how it’ll balance out! My sister is further along than I am and she’s enjoyed everything so far.
