CelticBrew drank Peanut Butter Cup by DAVIDsTEA

91 tasting notes

I’ve had this a few times now and figured today was the day for reviewing it. It’s quickly become a new favourite of mine. I’m a bit of a peanut butter junkie, I’ll admit it. I don’t keep the stuff in the house because I can literally eat it out of the jar with a spoon. If there’s ever any choice to be made with peanut butter in it, that’s the one for me. So when I heard about this tea in David’s Fall collection I knew I would be trying it. I can say that my peanut butter cravings are nicely met with this tea. There’s a wonderful creaminess to the flavour that tastes decadently rich and chocolatey. The nut base is almond instead of peanut but that doesn’t detract from it in any way. Only one tea receives a 100 from me (Stormy Night by David’s Tea), but this one comes close. I liked it enough to order 250 grams for the winter.

Bio

I’m a mid-thirties tea loving guy on the West Coast of Canada. Only really got into tea in the last 6 years largely because my exposure to tea was always bagged rather than loose before that. It wasn’t long for me to become hooked with loose leaf tea though.

My favourites are fruity black teas, chocolate and dessert teas and fruit/nut blends.

Other interests include films, meditation, reading, writing and computer games.

Working on living healthier and sweet teas are a nice alternative to full desserts and other sugary snacks and drinks for me.

I only rate teas once and use the following spectrum:
100 – Only one tea receive this from me. It’s that good.
95 – Only three teas receive this from me. They are that good.
90-94 – These are top rated teas for me but fall just short of my top 4 or ultimate tier teas.
80-89 – Very pleasant, enjoyable. Would definitely purchase again but wouldn’t necessarily rush out for it.
70-79 – Decent teas. They had their charm while they lasted but I’m undecided about buying them again.
60-69 – Alright teas. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing amazing either. Unless it’s on sale, I won’t buy again.
50-59 – Meh, I can take or leave this. There’s something about it that borders on dislike for me.
40-49 – Sorry this one’s just not for me.
30-39 – Definitely not for me. Wasn’t able to finish it.
0-29 – How dare they call this “tea”.
