22 Tasting Notes
I got this as a free sample from Octavia Teas. It’s my first time trying roobios and it’s delicious! I’ve never had roobios before so I wasn’t sure what to expect but it tastes like a flavored tea! Lots of delicious notes going on in this tea including chocolate and mint. Maybe a cherry undertone… Anyways, will definitely be ordering more of this in the future since this is something I can enjoy in the evening since it has no caffeine! Yum!
Flavors: Cherry, Chocolate, Mint
Preparation
Delicious tea very similar to the Irish Breakfast Cream but a little bit more astringent. Flavors are very similar but without the creaminess of the aforementioned tea which makes sense. Has a sweet, caramel undertone and a bit malty. Love that I’ve discovered the world of Irish breakfast teas because they are very delicious!
Flavors: Caramel, Malt
Preparation
Another delicious tea from the Great British Tea Store. I’ve never tried a Darjeeling before and I surprisingly like it. I don’t enjoy it as much as the Irish Breakfast Cream, but it’s still delicious nonetheless. It has a malty smell and taste to it. Goes down smooth with a slight astringency but not really. A very enjoyable tea.
Flavors: Malt
Preparation
Yummmm just discovered the world of Irish breakfast teas. Have never tried this type of tea before but wanted to branch out and try new things and I’m glad I did because this one is very delicious. It’s slightly sweet due to the natural flavors added to the tea and it also has a creamy flavor but the tea doesn’t look creamy after it’s brewed.
Flavors: Cream, Nutty
Preparation
Delicious jasmine green tea. This was my favorite tea before I discovered loose leaf teas. Very clean tasting with less bitterness than some of the other teabag versions of jasmine green tea I’ve tried.
Flavors: Jasmine
Preparation
Delicious tea! Got this as a five sample package I purchased from Teavivre. It has subtle flavors and I read one of the other reviews and it really does have a spinach taste to it. But it’s really light and very calming and yummy. No bitterness to it at all; just slides down the throat really easily.
Flavors: Mineral, Spinach
Preparation
I honestly love this jasmine tea even though it’s a tea bag version and not a loose version. The jasmine scent and flavor is very strong and so I’m not sure if it would be to everyone’s taste but I personally love jasmine flavor and smell. Sometimes, I would brew a lot of tea with this brand and refrigerate it to have on hand at all times.
Flavors: Jasmine
Preparation
Loved the jasmine flavor in this tea but I find that it isn’t as fragrant as the white jasmine I tried yesterday. Still delicious though. I didn’t over brew it this time so it doesn’t taste bitter at all! Will have to try the Teavivre Jasmine Pearls next and will compare!
Flavors: Jasmine
Preparation
First time trying a jasmine white tea and I have to say I LOVE IT! It tastes a lot sweeter than green tea and I feel like I almost taste a fruity finish on it. There’s less bitterness with this tea and you still get that great jasmine flavor. Yummm would definitely recommend this tea to others!
Flavors: Fruity, Jasmine, Lychee
