As always, I’m a huge sucker for anything tiramisu, especially tea. I saw this tea on their website, but didn’t want to commit to a larger than tester size since so many DTs fall short for me. I made a trip while out of state to a DT retail store and picked up a sample of both the Coffee Pu erh and the Birthday Cake. I have had the Birthday Cake before and remember being so so on it, but I haven’t had the Coffee before. I’ll have to try it on it’s own, but it is pretty damn good with the Birthday Cake (even tho I have an aversion to sprinkles in my tea). It has a really good coffee base with a cream and chocolate taste mixed in. The pu erh is undetectable on it’s own and I’m guessing it blends into the hearty base of coffee and chocolate. It is pretty dead on taste wise and I bet it would be amazing if I dipped some lady fingers in it to complete the tiramisu experience. I have to hand it to DT on this one, they really nailed it and I will definitely be back for a larger portion before I go home.

I have been considering trying the blueberry pancakes tea but I always forget to grab samples when I am at DAVIDs. I am glad to hear this one was successful though.

They have a couple of “perfect match” combinations of their teas. Three it looks like! Hadn’t really paid attention to the other two before, I was a little blinded by Tiramisu! Blueberry Pancakes, as was mentioned, and Apple Pie. They are sold under the “special packaging” category and are sold in one tin with a divider to seperate the two teas. I’m guessing in the case of tiramisu, the rooibos would sift to the bottom and mess up the balance hense the seperation in packaging.

My name is Dustin and I like tea.

I’m an added flavor kind of tea fan, but have had a growing appreciation for plain. I want my tea to remind me of cookies and cakes with coconut and almond slices with a hint of chocolate drizzled on top. I want dancing ponies and flying monkeys shooting off fireworks! And no hibiscus. Hibiscus is the devil.
