316 Tasting Notes
This tea is fruity, but tangy at the same time. I really like it and I was freaking out when they discontinued it. This is also one of the first dozen teas I ever picked up. There is this weird taste that I think must be the sea buckthorn. But I also taste the hibiscus, other berries and tanginess of the lemongrass. It’s a lovely blend I like having around.
Flavors: Berries, Fruity, Hibiscus, Lemongrass
Preparation
Forever loving this blend. I actually waited a long time to try this, and when I did, I instantly loved it. Peach and apricot are some of my favourite ingredients and this tea is just lovely with them both. The almond is there also, and it actually adds to the flavour. I just simply love this tea!
Flavors: Almond, Apricot, Peach
Preparation
This is another coconut tea I don’t mind because of the delicious raspberry underneath. It’s nice and rich, with coconut entering first and then the sweet raspberry coming second, which is what I like about this tea. It’s a comforting black tea enjoyed hot. I’m also getting a nice creamy taste to this. (I HATE this iced. Don’t know why.) Though I don’t like coconut, it sure blends well with raspberry.
Flavors: Coconut, Creamy, Raspberry
Preparation
This is a nice berry tea. Refreshing too – it lives up to its name. It’s one of the first teas I tried from DT and ever since, I was hooked. It obviously tastes like berries, and I like the lemongrass in it. For specific berry tastes, I think I’m tasting blackberry and could be the elderberry – though I’ve never tried elderberry. Overall, I really enjoy this tea. I’m having it hot, because when I tried having it iced it didn’t taste the greatest. Hot is it lovely. I am getting a bit of a hibiscus aftertaste but that’s fine.
I’m just sad they discontinued this one.
Flavors: Berry, Blackberry, Blueberry, Lemongrass

I assume this is the right one, since my tin just says ‘Raspberry Pineapple’… Anyway, I’ve had this since Christmas and haven’t tried it till now. It’s about time. It’s actually really light, and there’s not too much flavour to this. Teavana recommended a 2 min steep so that’s what I did, but I think it should’ve been 3 min. It has a fruity taste, and I think I can mostly taste the raspberry in this. Not a bad tea, but not something I’d drink too often. Maybe my mom will like this.
Flavors: Fruity, Raspberry
Preparation
This tea is lovely and a bit sweet. I don’t usually like chai, but this is one of those I actually like. It has a nice rhubarb taste to it and also has a subtle spice to it that makes it well balanced. Pretty good in my opinion.
Flavors: Rhubarb, Spices
Preparation
This is alright. It tastes very tropical to me, not really sure on the individual flavours – because I never have those types of fruits. But this has a floral note to it as well. I think I taste the mango, maybe the pineapple. It’s just a mix of tropicalness in my cup. Not a bad tea, but not my favourite, either.
Flavors: Floral, Fruity, Mango, Pineapple, Tropical
