105 Tasting Notes
Steeped 3 min. Tastes very bitter. Very faint almond and cherry flavors, but the bitterness over-powers it. Could maybe improve with less steeping time, but not good enough to try it again. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Almond, Bitter, Cherry
Preparation
Smells nice and chocolate-y. Tastes pleasant but very dilute and almost flavorless. There attempts at chocolate flavors, but it doesn’t quite get there. Steeped for the whole 5 minutes to try and enhance the flavor – no change noted. Drinkable, but tastes like drinking hot water. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Chocolate
Preparation
Plain, attempts at a fruity taste. Smells soft, pleasant, but not much flavor. Steeped 3 min, then steeped longer to 5 min to try and enhance flavor – no change in flavors noted. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Fruity
Preparation
Unknown steep time provided with tea. Steeped 2 minutes. Tea smells like dehydrated blueberries with some cinnamon undertones. Warm water taste, not a lot of substance. Would drink but wouldn’t re-purchase. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Blueberry, Cinnamon
Preparation
Has a barely citrus flavor. Tea steeped light pink, very thin color. Drinkable, but mostly tastes like warm orange-y water. Didn’t want to steep very long initially d/t other fruit teas becoming bitter – steeped 3 minutes.
Tried again and steeped tea 5 minutes. Tea smells like orange medicine. Taste is a stronger citrus flavor, good and drinkable. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Citrusy
Preparation
Steeped 1 min with some dunking. Good flavor without bitterness. Could probably steep longer but was afraid of bitterness like with the blackberry tea. Tastes like warm raspberry water, pleasant. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Raspberry
Preparation
Very bitter after 3 min (lower end of brew time). Tried again after steeping 1 min – still very bitter. High caffeine content. Online tips: better in blends vs. on its own. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Berry, Bitter
Preparation
Drinkable, but not necessarily enjoyable. Tastes like unsweetened berry water. Not sweet, but not bitter. Does not induce any puckering. Might be better with citrus, or a sweetener? Would require a LOT of sweetener. Soaked 2 sachets in a pitcher for 12 hours. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Berry, Tangy
