tastes artificial and nutty. The name gave it a lot of exceptions which was quickly let down. Not horrid but I wouldn’t purchase again

This one is not for me. It smells like a really strong artificial pumpkin candle but it tastes like a bland black tea. It’s not spicy enough for a chai for me. I got a sample with my order and i am really glad I didn’t spend money on this.

This was a sample in an order and I regret waiting so long to try it because it is now retiring soon. It taste similar to a sweet green tea walnut cookie.
The green tea taste is still there among the sweetness and the nutty flavors. To be honest I am not really a person who eats walnuts very often, but found this tea to be a nice treat.
If it came back in stores, I would probably purchase some because I find it to just be a really nice balance, not too any one element

drank Cookie Dough by David's Tea
50 tasting notes

I was excited and I was let down… slightly.
I was promised cookie dough, when I think of cookie dough I think of sweet, chocolaty, buttery pre-baked goodness.
Brewed the smell is yummy, like when the cookie dough first starts to almost melt in the oven. However when I tasted it, I did not get that cookie dough taste, I got a lot of the strong white tea taste. I can get a slight chocolate aftertaste, and a little nutty flavor, but I do not get a cookie dough flavor. It was really lacking a sweetness for me.
I do enjoy teas that have that more traditional white tea flavor and are not clouded with other ingredients to make it taste like a dessert, so I did overall enjoy this cup of tea.
My problem was it just did not taste as described or what I wanted in that moment. I wanted a dessert tea, something sweet and creamy and now I just want to go get some cookie dough out of the freezer.

drank Hot Chocolate by David's Tea
50 tasting notes

This was the first pu-erh I have tried, at least knowingly.

After I first brewed I smelled a wonderful chocolate scent, similar to the first smell you might get when baking brownies and the chocolate is just getting melted and gooey. I am a fan of traditional hot chocolate, with steamed milk and bar of melted dark chocolate in it, so I was worried that it would taste too much like a watered down hot chocolate.
It was nothing like that, it did not have that same creaminess or strong pure chocolate taste that hot chocolate has, but I tasted a strong chocolate flavor with what I imagine is the natural pu-erh tea taste in the very background. It did not taste watered down, it was just a lighter taste of chocolate.
It confused my taste buds at first because of that lighter but somehow not watered down chocolate taste. It was sweeter than a dark chocolate but not as sweet as candy bar chocolate.
This tea was delicious and I finished this cup of tea quicker than most, and was going to make myself another cup! Until I remembered this tea has caffeine and it is almost 11 at night.
I am excited to try it as a latte!

drank Goji Green by David's Tea
1 tasting notes

This is a very fruity blend. It tends to brew a dark pink color and the goji pretty much overwhelms any natural green tea coming through. I don’t drink tea with any additives (sugar, honey, etc.) and this one definitely doesn’t need any.

Flavors: Fruity, Goji, Raspberry

drank Coco Chai Rooibos by David's Tea
39 tasting notes

YES this is soooo good!
I made a tea latte with it (added coconut milk and a dash of maple syrup to sweeten). It’s perfect!

I had a sip hot, yum but since Im in Flordia and it’s a hot day, I made it iced. So so good.

I steeped some in half of the mug for four minutes then transferred it to a mason jar to make it into an iced latte. I steeped the tea bag in a full mug to have a second cup and it was perfect! I got two drinks out of this. Def would buy again.

This is a tasty tea, especially for hot lattes. My largest (and only) gripe with this tea is that it is too similar to the other green tea by David’s called “Movie Night.” Especially when made a latte, the two are virtually indistinguishable. The reason it becomes troublesome to me is that Movie Night is a sweet tea, supposedly attempting to resemble sweet and salty movie snacks, and has sugar. If Toasted Walnut had less of a sweet taste to it like Movie Night, it would be perfect.

This was quite cherry lovely. The taste was very familiar.

drank Pistachio Ice Cream by David's Tea
1202 tasting notes

In some sips this tea tastes pretty good and in other sips it tastes like play-doh. :/ I can’t quite sort how I feel about it. I do get bits of apple in there and the overall pistachioness of it. I’m not thrilled and I’m not appalled.

I was That Kid who ate play-doh, so I’d probably like this, haha.

Dustin

I recall play-doh not tasting so bad when I was a kid, but my tastes have changed a little since then. ;)

Nattie

True! My favourite breakfast as a child was marmite and smarties on toast! I tried it again a couple of years back, and it is totally gross, as you would expect!

Kittenna

I only liked the homemade playdough, aka flour + salt. I also licked salty rocks. Yuck. But I know of this play-doh flavour you speak of, and I find it not uncommon, especially in flavoured whites. Not particularly appealing.

Found a sample while clearing out the cabinet, so I had to give it a try. The pouch insisted I was supposed to put the whole thing in the infuser…2 tsp seemed a bit much, so I compensated by dropping the steep time drastically.

It was…underwhelming, again. Smelled fruity, but it didn’t really come through (even with a longer 1.5 min second steep) and just tasted like a lacklustre green. I’m willing to assume that the issue might’ve been with my steeps, so I’ll hold off on rating this one officially.

I won’t be buying it again, though.

I got this as part of a sampler. I wouldn’t buy something like this on its own. It’s pretty sour. It’s basically entirely lemon with no perceptible amount of strawberry except the pink color of the liquid. I like lemon teas, but this one is too bitter and artificial. It was slightly better cold, but still not too enjoyable.

Tabby

Every one of David’s Teas have come across as artificial to me, too. Which is ridiculous considering how much they charge.

AJRimmer

Yeah I only ever buy their teas on sale. They do have some flavors I really enjoy, but many others that are average, and a few that are quite bad.

I found this one to be quite refreshing, I wish it was just a little bit more tart. I can’t wait to try this one iced!

Very mild chocolate taste when made with milk and sugar. Would probably make a good tea latte.

VERY weak – and I forgot about it so it brewed for about 10-15mins…

whew. I love Earl Grey and I really didn’t like this one. I think I’ve narrowed it down to the vanilla flavoring that threw me way off. Whatever it was, this just did not work for me at all.
