Smelled vanilla, but didn’t taste it. Not giving up…

More chocolate, please! This is a good peppermint tea, but I was struggling to find the chocolate-y goodness it promised. Maybe next time I’ll melt an Andies mint into it or add some hot chocolate mix! More to come on my experiments…

drank Fennel Spice by Della Terra Teas
219 tasting notes

This is probably the most interesting tea I’ve ever tasted. The apple and fennel make it both spicy and sweet. It reminded me of the good blend of spices you often find in Indian dishes…not the same spices, but that kind of perfect blend. Yum! Perfect for a cold winter evening!

Bonnie

Sounds good. I like fennel.

Oh Black Friday online tea shopping! How I love you (and my wonderful friend Kim who made this order for me because I was at my grandparent’s without internet access)! This is a very nice cinnamon tea. In my mind, I had hoped it would be all that I love about Eight Candles with the added enjoyment of Pumpkin. I guess I’ll just have to make another cup and see if it gets there :)

The most desserty tea I’ve had in a while. My friend Kim has fallen for honeybush and ordered several blends from Adagio. I had the pleasure of enjoying a cup of this today along with a delicious buckeye that took me back to my college years. Very nice blend!

Found this unopened sample in my sample tin this morning and thought I would be a nice way to start my day. It did not disappoint. Toasty oolong goodness.

It’s been a strange and busy week. Looking forward to my day off tomorrow.

drank Lemon Souffle by White Lion
219 tasting notes

I’m must have received a bad batch of this. Everyone who has tried it seemed to really like it. This is my second tasting. I followed the directions on the container and all I’m getting are hints the vanilla and caramel. Absolutely NO lemon. Thought my first cup was a fluke, but second cup is missing lemon as well. Pretty disappointed with this so called Lemon Souffle. If it were vanilla caramel white tea, this would be spot on!

Sil

hmmmm weird. I keep wanting to try white lion but they make it seriously annoying to order. even with a tea mule i can’t put in my canadian credit card address heh. I’m less disappointed seeing that you didn’t like this haha

Em

Glad I could help you out :) I really hope mine was just a fluke and I’m happy it was a gift and that I didn’t pay for it myself!

drank Quilan Oolong by White Lion

This was a wonderful birthday gift from my sis (THANKS SISSY!!!). I had a hard time enjoying tea this summer. Maybe it’s just a fall/winter/early spring thing for me. So, sadly, I just tried this tea for the first time 5 months later :)

Very nice oolong. I am not good at judging oolong teas, I just tend to like them :) I had this on my shopping list because of Azzrian’s beautiful description! Burnt marshmallows are the best. It made it through 3 infusions before I had to call it quits. It might have survived more if it wasn’t already 10pm when I finished the 3rd.

Speaking of Azzrian, she’s not logged a tea in 6 months. Bummer.

Soon to be restocked thanks to Black Friday and Della Terra’s awesome deal!

In celebration of that fact, I’m enjoying a cup this morning. YUM!

Anna

I’m still thinking about that cup you shared with me at Christmas. Gonna have to get my own supply this year.

Em

I can share some with you. I have plenty :) I’ll bring some to you at Dad’s retirement!

drank Walnut Crunch by TehKu
219 tasting notes

Nut-tastic green tea! Blessed to end the holiday with a trip to TehKu in Dublin. If you’re ever near Columbus, OH, you MUST stop at TehKu. It will not disappoint.

The tea smells like a sugar cookie. The strongest flavor was the coconut, but both the walnut and pineapple were present. I’d like to try this again when I have more time to savor. I almost bought some, but decided the teas I ordered on Della Terra for Black Friday were enough for right now. I need to have some self control!

Sil

self con-what? :)

Em

I hear ya, Sil. It was super difficult, but I do know I can go back and get some ;) And I failed to mention that I picked up more Butterfly Kisses!
