514 Tasting Notes
Sipdown!
These were ok, not my favorite. I think these are an older sample I had which makes sense why the flavor was a bit more bland and not the lovely jasmine flavor I was hoping for. Am going to try the last few pearls as a cold brew for later this afternoon. Hoping the flavors come thru a bit stronger.
The weather is still pretty hot but I had to try out the this tea when it came the other day in its purple pkg. I literally torn the packaging apart to get to it.
I cold brewed this because I wasn’t in the mood for hot tea while it was so humid in the house. I could have shut the windows and turned the air on but with 5 boys in the house, it is nice to have the fresh air coming in.
Sweet pumpkin clove happiness is what I am greeted with. Very reminiscent of pumpkin pie. The honeybush is pretty strong in this tea-I kind of which that was toned down just a bit. I really like it but it isn’t my favorite pumpkin tea. I actually think the Celestial Seasoning Black Pumpkin Tea is still favorite. The pumpkin flavor is so strong in that tea. Yum!
Besides the Pumpkin Chai from David’s Tea and the Celestial Seasoning one, can anybody recommend any other fall teas that are not chai blends that have pumpkin or apple flavors in them?
Happy Friday everyone!

Thank you TeaNTees!
This. . .tea. . .is. . . good! Sweet, maple syrup, malty .. maybe even hints of chocolate? . yummy!
I might be a bit tea drunk from too much tea this afternon! Ha!
This one I was hoping would be as awesome as the garlic tea was that I had from Mela Teas a bit ago, but the ginger just wasn’t there. It was like there was a dusting of ginger instead of actual ginger pieces. The tea itself was delicious just lacking the ginger part.
Happy Thursday everyone!

Thanks again to the amazing TeaNTees for a sample of this delight. I had to do a double take on the ingredients because I swear this tea tastes like red rooibos. Not sure why that is the flavor I’m getting out of it. I’m going to try again later tonight with a cold brew.
Yum! Chocolate nutty roasted oolong goodness. . . Another winner from Liquid Proust Teas, but this may be my least favorite.
Another lovely tea from TeaNTees goodie box! Thank you again my dear.
I rec’d your pkg today. I’m checking now! Sweet! I did notice that the second infusion had such a rich silky chocolate flavor that was better than the first infusion.
