3 Tasting Notes
Got this tea in a sampler after my last order and GOSH IT IS SO BLIMMIN GOOD! Spicy, cinnamon, Orange peel sigh
Will definitely repurchase and I recommend to lovers of chai.
You can find this tea at T2
Flavors: Cinnamon, Ginger, Spicy, Vanilla
Preparation
This tea was one of three limited edition christmas gift boxes so I was desperate to try it out. When I tested it in the shop, it had the perfect balance of fruit, the perfect icy cold temperature and the perfect strength. I immediately grabbed it as I was in a rush and tried it the next morning.
The first cup was alright I guess, but I didn’t get it as good as the people in t2. The other times I’ve had it its gotten worse and worse. It’s too watery, its too strong, it’s not balanced, it tasted like alcohol at some point. It wasn’t very nice.
I guess I’ve sort of neglected this tea. I haven’t tried it again in ages but I can be bothered, really. I wish it could taste like it did in t2 that day.
I also forgot to add that it tastes like cornflower. I have a thing about cornflowers in tea, i just don’t like it.
Flavors: Alcohol, Blackberry, Blueberry, Coconut, Oats
Preparation
I’ve heard a mixture of negative and positive reviews about this tea and I thought I’d try it out to find my own opinion. some said that the smell was amazing but it was tasteless; others protesting that it was amazing, ticked all the boxes and couldn’t be better.
So heres my opinion.
When I opened the box the first thing was the smell. Chocolate. Coconut. Vanilla. I couldn’t possibly dream of anything better. When I was making the first cup I used my well loved T2 tea maker, like always. The smell of the tea was devine. When I took the first sip, I was a little disappointed. Yes, It was a little tasteless, but the second sip was different, it was just like what It smelt like – possibly even better. I kept on sipping; no more disappointments.
The only theory on the first sip is that I had such high expectations of it being amazing. I still have this tea and I savour every sip- trust me its good. the taste is a little fainter than the smell but altogether to die for. Will definitely repurchase this tea.
