525 tasting notes

This is the first tea I tried from the array of samples sent to me by DaisyChubb. I haven’t had a good history with rooibus, but this one was alright. It tastes very maple-y and sweet. I kept thinking I should be having pancakes outdoors with a hot cup of this. The little maple sprinkles were really cute! I like it. Of course there’s still that rooibus (medicinal) flavor that I’m not in love with, but maybe we’ll get there one day. Things are looking up!
Nothing beats real tea, but this rooibus is really pleasant!

Thank you for sending this DaisyChubb. :)

Glad you enjoyed it!! This one is one of my favorite rooibos blends I think, simply because the maple flavour almost drowns out the rooibos flavour haha

Bio

I came from a tea drinking family, but I never appreciated the different qualities and varieties of tea until older. All that time wasted! But I guess I needed to be mature enough to appreciate the tea experience. :)

My favorite teas are green oolongs and white tea. I also love greens, especially gyokuro. I have a huge appreciation for rooibos and honeybush as they are often that only thing I can drink in the evening. I am a relatively new convert to black teas. This is unfortunate for my wallet but extremely wonderful for my palate. :)

In any case, I have a love for both flavored and unflavored teas. They are different experiences for sure, but both enjoyable. I find that it often depends on my mood.

I am on a quest to find a tea that will win my husband over. I think I’m making some headway…
