I wanted to give this guy another shot. I’m determined to sipdown this rather than trade it off but I honestly can’t stand it. Only a few cups left!

Much better than the Spiced Pumpkin from earlier. I tried this in store (though I was already planning on getting some) it could definitely use some sweetener but I’m actually liking this one a little better than Adagio’s black Coconut tea in some ways.
Definitely can taste some nice creamy notes and the coconut is pretty strong.

Flavors: Coconut, Cream

1 tsp

I stopped by Davids on Friday and picked up a little bit of a few different teas. I snagged half an ounce of this guy after really enjoying the scent in the jar. Unfortunately, I just made a cup and it tastes like oatmeal to me, which I HATE. Maybe playing with the steeping time, adding some cream, or something will make it a little better for me.

Flavors: Oats

Preparation
1 tsp

I had a nice cup of this one earlier today, its not my favorite cherry tea but its the 2nd best I’ve had so far. Some have said it tastes medicinal, but I honestly don’t taste that, it has a nice mellow cherry flavor.

Flavors: Cherry

Preparation
1 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML

This is the second time I’ve had this one but I still haven’t been able to completely get a feel for the flavors. I got this one in a swap and its not one I would usually like but I do! Its got a nice, but not over powering and spicy, gingery flavor.

Flavors: Ginger, Orange

I’ve had this one before but didn’t get a chance to rate it properly. I’ve noticed that Davids is using less and less actual tea leaves in their teas and more of the flavoring ingredients. In this case it makes for a nice and strong cup of blueberry flavor but really lacking in the tea department.

This time I steeped it with some of the black tea my dad got me when he was in India (I honestly have no clue what kind of black is it, unfortunately) and it was superb. 1/2 tsp of each and it’s got a nice balance of black with blueberry after taste. Plus it’ll make the blueberry from Davids last twice as long ;)

SIPDOWN! I just had one cup left after yesterday’s cup of this one. No new changes in taste. A bit sad to see this one go given that it was a seasonal but there’s always other teas to be drunk!

Preparation
1 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

This one will probably always be a favorite. I generally like it iced but this morning I needed something cozy to keep me awake. I’m getting towards the bottom of the tin and the raspberry flavor is not as strong as it once was.

Flavors: Fruity, Raspberry

Bio

I got into loose leaf teas about three years back when I figured I might be a little too old for Celestial Seasoning’s Zinger Teas. Ever since, I’ve been sneaking out of the house to find obscure hole in the wall tea shops to get my fix and swapping teas as I go.
Lately, I’ve been into herbals and rooibos, but I do enjoy black tea, specifically ceylons. I mainly drink flavored teas.

Currently Looking For:
Caramel flavored teas
Cherry herbals
