Got this in a swap from Cameron B
I am so disappointed in this tea. :c It had my hopes up. It made me excited. But it just didn’t … have much of a taste.
The smell… omg the smell was amazing. PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE IN THIS BAG!
but when I brewed it, it didn’t come through. The flavor was there, but it was SO VAGUE that I couldn’t really make much of it. :c
I realized this tea has just made me want to make a real pineapple upside down cake. I guess that’s how I’ll get that flavor because it’s not in this cup. :c
Such a shame… I would totally have bought some of this if it’d help up to my expectations.
Drank yesterday. Site was being weird.

Did it taste like pineapple or not?
No not really at all. That is part of why I was disappointed. :c
It had candied pineapple bits in it, but I couldn’t taste any fruity quality. All I really got was a brown sugar cakey taste.
Sad. So sad because it smelled incredible.
That’s actually why I liked it xD Sorry you didn’t like it though :/ It always sucks to be disappointed. Least you didn’t waste your money on it?
I never feel an experience is a waste. Especially not at sample-sized prices ;)
But yeah, I wish the pineapple had featured in it a bit.
I really just want to make a pineapple upside down cake now.
Which I’m going to do.
And that will make everything better.
I find with Della Terra I have to use more tea than recommended to make a strong enough cup (so about 1.5 tsp). But I definitely didn’t get any pineapple taste from this one either – just butter and cake and brown sugar. You must take a picture of your glorious upside down cake! :) I’ve been really wanting to make an angel food cake but I don’t have the right pan… QQ
