Smells like pastries/bread. Tastes like marzipan. The base is pretty weak, but I’m just here for the almond, so I don’t mind. No bitterness, but I also used a pretty low water temperature. I like this one.

drank Hugs and Kisses by Adagio Teas
768 tasting notes

I drink some kind of Adagio rooibos every day, and this is what I have currently, so I’ve been drinking a lot of it. I definitely wish it were offered in a smaller size because I wouldn’t have wanted four ounces of this one. It looks pretty, but it tastes almost like plain rooibos. I would have liked to taste the other flavors more. Certainly not bad, but I wouldn’t choose it over other options.

drank Alpine Punch by DAVIDsTEA

My favorite tea. I’ve received it in several swaps, but am waiting for it to go on sale so I can buy a truly giant bag for myself. Almond is my favorite flavor, and here it’s so light and sweet. The best.

The flavors go so well together. I add a bit of sugar because…I add sugar to all my teas! So it’s a pleasantly sweet and spicy combination. I’ll be sad when this one is gone, but I don’t know if I’d order again at its current price. I’d be more likely to try to make my own. I’ve got some dried sage leaves, so I’m partway there!

Hmm… I’d never even heard of this company. They have some interesting-sounding teas.

I now have several samples on their way to me! ;)

I’ve really enjoyed 4/5 teas that I’ve tried from them, and I have two more that I haven’t opened yet. Capri is probably my favorite other than Cocteau, which was discontinued. I’ll be interested to see what you think of their teas! Their marketing and flavor combos definitely intrigue me.

I got mostly black teas. They definitely sound intriguing! Love the samples sizes and free shipping. I would like to see more oolongs and some white teas.

drank Apéro Spritz by DAVIDsTEA

Yummy citrus flavor. Not sour or bitter. I also didn’t need to over-leaf it like some fruit teas require. I feel like I’d drink this fairly regularly if I had more!

drank Tower of London by Harney & Sons

I guess I’m used to drinking Decaf Paris, so this tastes pretty standard in comparison. I added some milk and sugar, and it was tasty, but I wouldn’t choose this over other earl greys I have in my cupboard.

drank Sweet Autumn by Lupicia
768 tasting notes

It tastes like sweet potatoes and smells very buttery. Definitely one of the stranger teas I’ve tried, but I really enjoyed it. I made a second steep and put it in the fridge for later, and it tasted every bit as strong as the first steep. Tasty hot or cold. I wouldn’t drink this all the time, but I’m so glad I tried it.

Thanks Cameron B for the exchange.

I’m sad that I don’t seem to like red rooibos anymore, because I used to really like this tea! Maybe I’ll give it another chance some evening this weekend… :)

AJRimmer

I absolutely love all rooibos (except Harney rooibos for some reason). Maybe I should’ve rated this even higher. It’s pretty great. Definitely try it again! (:

Cameron B.

It’s available right now, but won’t be for long. Be sure to order it soon if you want it. :P

Lupicia has sooo many seasonal teas.

Bio

Steepster is glitching for me, so I can only access it using my laptop, which I don’t use very often, so I unfortunately will not be as active on here as I prefer to be.

I’m an event planner who always has two mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, and listening to podcasts.

Favorite flavors: Almond, strawberry, nutty, dessert flavors, melon, mint, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
