Dexter drank Blueberry Crumble by Della Terra Teas

1040 tasting notes

This is another tea from the amazing box that ifjuly set me.

Sometimes I think all Della Terra teas taste the same. Then I think about a few of my favorites from them, and decide that maybe only SOME of their teas taste the same. This tastes like a Della Terra tea. Blind taste test, I would know from the smell that this is Della Terra.
Confused about the green tea in here – I never understand why they would put both black and green in the same tea….
This is all crumble and zero blueberry. It’s cinnamon, bakery, crumble, sweet and not a fruit in site. If it wasn’t so late, and if my tea wasn’t all scattered around the house – I would dig out some blueberry tisane to add to this. Too lazy – didn’t do it.

I totally agree about similarities amongst some Della Terra teas. I think it’s why I stopped ordering from them because it started to feel like a broken record.

I needed to update my profile. I joined Steepster 03Mar13. I am just amazed at how much my tastes have changed since then.
When I discovered loose leaf tea about a year and half ago, I didn’t know anything other than my local Davids and Teavana/Teaopia. Stumbling onto Steepster CHANGED EVERYTHING.
Hello, my name is Dex I’m a tea addict.
I’ve been through the “I need to try every single tea out there” phase. I really hope the worst of that has passed. I’ve learned enough to know that I only need to try HALF of all the teas out there. LOL
When I started this journey, I was all about the flavored rooibos and fruity tisanes. Don’t get me wrong there is still room for dessert (chocolate/caramel/nutty) Rooibos teas in my cupboard and I still do enjoy them, BUT I am quickly learning to appreciate the some of the straight teas of the world.
Big bold (but not icky)pu’erh is suddenly my favorite, followed by woody/roasted oolongs. I’m just starting to explore straight black teas, and have found some that I really like.
Generally speaking I’m not into greens at all, only like the occasional green oolong, and white teas are just too mild for my tastes (unless they are fruit flavored). I still enjoy really good fruit tisanes, but am now cold steeping them.
I don’t like floral/herbal blends, and mint anything is not on my preferred list.
I am still exploring new teas, adapting to my changing tastes, understanding more every day how little I really know about tea. Ultimately I would love to find approximately 50 teas that I just “can’t live without” and always have them in my cupboard. That might not be practical, but that what I’m searching for. It’s going to be a fun journey.

All in all, I love this site. I’ve met some wonderful people, and have gotten to try some amazing teas because of them. It really restores your faith in humanity when you get a note saying “oh by the way I sent you some tea”. Wonderful, generous, people here.
