2303 tasting notes

I picked this tea up on Black Friday because I love the other lemongrass-heavy tea I have from DT, vanilla swirl. I guess I oversteeped my first cup because it tasted kind of murky and sour, and I didn’t love the second steep that I had as a cold brew either. Today, I made sure not to steep it as long, and I’d say it’s tastier this time. The kind of fake fruitiness is sometimes not so great, but the sweetness and lemongrass base are nice. Really though, it just makes me wish I were drinking vanilla swirl! This tea is kind of weird, but I guess I’ll be able to finish my two ounces. I think this would be tastier with just blueberries and no elderberries. Also, I was pleased that the pineapple didn’t take over like it sometimes does.

I had forgotten that Vanilla Swirl existed. I wonder if I have some left, somewhere.

I love vanilla swirl so much, but sadly, one day when I was feeling stressed about how much tea I had, I sold off six oz of it, so now I only have a few servings left. Hopefully I’ll be able to acquire more one day!

Kittenna

Oh no! I understand that stress, heh. Maybe it will come back one day? (I assume it’s retired.)

It’s still available in the Canada store, but it’s on sale, so I guess they’re just selling off the last of it. Nowhere to be seen in the US ):

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
