There’s something about this one. It’s not even really all that especially good. Most people probably know that I tend to think of DavidsTEA as a ‘teaware only’ shop for the most part, with now and then trying out a tea of theirs if my curiosity is piqued.

But this is one I keep coming back to. Something about is comforting. I like how creamy the mouth feel is, and the soft lemon. I like taking good long sniffs of both the dry leaf, and of the steeped cup.

That said, it’s not really something I would rave about, nor do I think this is something that everyone needs to try or anything.

Yet something about it keeps bringing me back.

Hello! I’m a 24 year old Canadian, currently working at Starbucks while I figure out what I want to do with myself in life, haha.

Like most everyone else, I grew up with teabags, and then discovered the grass really WAS greener on the other side with loose leaf. Nowadays I drink nearly exclusively loose, but will drink a bagged tea if I don’t care what I’m having.

My favorite kind of tea is black, and unflavored, although I do enjoy an occasional dessert black. I like whites second best. I’ve recently been dipping my toes into honeybush tisanes, greens and oolongs.

My favorite vendors are Butiki Teas and Verdant Teas. Both have fantastic teas, above and beyond customer service (especially Butiki), and fair prices for their very high quality teas. I can’t recommend them enough.

Purely for tasting notes references, I don’t use any additives for my teas. Older tasting notes for blacks was with milk+sugar, and then with just milk. Whites, oolongs, greens and herbals are all drunk straight unless otherwise specified in the notes.
