This tea has an amazing smell dry, and steeped. The taste steeped however is like burnt nuts, not the nice light scent that I had in the bag. I may have used water that was too hot, so as to burn the green tea, but the taste isn’t bitter, it’s sharp. It truly tastes like the walnut and other non tea ingredients were burnt prior to being steeped. I was unable to finish the cup I brewed. :(
I have always enjoyed tea. One day during the Olympics in Vancouver on a cold rainy day I came across this tea store, I went in and I was amazed by the number of teas. I was probably there for over an hour smelling every tea they had in store. The store I stumbled upon was DAVIDsTEA. That day I bought about 5 tea`s with high caffeine content so I could stay awake for my night shifts. Later that year during the summer I returned with my boyfriend and I left with 10 tins of 100g each of tea. Since that day I have not bought tea from anywhere else. I have become a tea fanatic since that one cold winter day in Vancouver.
