teapartyfortwo drank Strawberry Velvet Cake by Ahmad Tea

624 tasting notes

The smell of this while it steeps is pure magic! Just the most delectable and heavenly aroma. Unfortunately, the magic ends there. It’s not that it tastes bad, it just doesn’t taste as good as it smells. The strawberry flavour is nice but that’s all I get, just strawberries overtop of a strong bitterness. It would have been a lot better if the bitterness wasn’t present. It distracts from the lovely, juicy strawberry flavour. Where’s the cake? There’s nothing cake-like about this at all to my taste buds. It’s not terrible but it’s nothing special either. Just sub-par. I’ll finish the box but I won’t re-purchase.

Flavors: Bitter, Strawberry

I’ve loved tea since I was a kid. I used to think it was a treat to have an orange pekoe tea with cream and a lump of sugar. When I was little, it made me feel like a real grown-up! I still love tea and drink it every day. I love trying new teas and find my cupboard filled to the max with more teas than a person should have! I love sitting down and relaxing with a hot cup of tea!

I drink a lot of green tea. The teas I’ve drank up to this point have been relatively boring but that’s how I generally prefer my tea, very low key.

This past Fall my sister introduced me to David’s Tea. She’s been a big fan for quite awhile now and now I’m on the bandwagon with her! My tea cupboard just got a lot more exciting! Now that I’ve become acquainted with David’s, as of late I am also introducing myself to some other brands as well thanks to the reviews here on Steepster!

I’m so happy that I discovered this site (by accident) and can’t wait to start rating teas, writing tea notes and meeting all of the other members.

A little bit about me: My name is Jason, I have 2 cats and I work in the health care and retail fields.
