whosbradpitt drank Wonderful Creme Brulee Oolong by MentaliTeas

273 tasting notes

Creme Brulee is not my thing, so I wasn’t terribly surprised this tea wasn’t either. The sweetness was light, and I could kind of get the almond. I smelled the cinnamon more than I tasted it. The aftertaste had a surprising floral note, which was less surprising when I noticed jasmine flowers at the end of the ingredients list.

This was interesting, just not my preference.

Great at buying tea, okay at drinking tea, awful at timely reviews. Drawn to fruit, floral, spice, smoke, and flavored teas in general; prefer those that stand well without milk or sweetener. Black is fine, green is better, and red rooibos is trash.

My ratings are for me, so I don’t accidentally buy something that sounds amazing but I’ve already tried and disliked. I struggle a bit with wanting to be “fair” to a tea that other people would probably like, but then my system won’t work!

90-100 A: loved it; would make this a permanent member of my stash
80-89 B: tasty; would pick it up again
70-79 C: good; could grab with a good deal or to try in a different style
60-69 D: okay; would keep in a set but probably would not repurchase on its own
1-59 F: various shades of bad; would not purchase; closer to 1 means may not even drink again if offered.
