737 Tasting Notes
Got a sample of this tea from Christina!
Think I oversteeped it a wee bit because I was talking to my mum. Didn’t seem bitter though, so that’s good!
This one isn’t too strong, it’s pretty light.
Definitely tastes like roasted chestnuts…well…more like roasted sweet chestnuts. Because it has a certain sweetness to it. Not my favorite tea, and wouldn’t buy it ever, but glad I sampled it! Thanks so much for the sample. Christina! :D
Heard that this one tastes a lot like their other tea Snowflake which I’m MADLY in love with. xD But this one is a lot softer. Not nearly as good as Snowflake though.
This one is creamy and light.
Lots of almond and vanilla flavor. Which is pretty good, but not as good as the other tea I’ve had from them.
I almost actually bought this one, but I’m so glad I didn’t and just got Snowflake instead. But it’s pretty good still. Just not something I’d purchase.
Thank you, Albertocanfly for this sample!! ^^
Flavors: Almond, Vanilla
This one tasted much better to me with 2 tsp of tea :D So glad you got to try a tea you were curious about!^.^
Oo I’ll try that with the rest of the tea, thanks for the tip! And thanks again! Excited to try the others too!
I believe I got this one from QueenofTarts. I need to remember who sent me which samples better before I put them with the other samples I need to try. >< I’m like 99% Sure this is from QueenofTarts, but correct me if I’m wrong. xD
Anyway, this one smells and tastes strongly of vanilla bean.
One of the better vanilla teas I’ve tried so far actually. Lovely tea for this afternoon. Thank you so much, QueenofTarts Or whoever else might have given that to me. xD
Flavors: Vanilla
Decided to order this one since Steven Smith Teamaker is having a small sale, and since i’m working again I have more money! Glad I took a chance and got this one.
It’s delicious! :O
Rich. Strong. Malty. Fruity. Honey.
A lovely tea!
And guess what! NO WOODY TASTE!
Yah! I’m so excited! :D
Flavors: Caramel, Fruity, Honey, Malt
Got this one a month or so ago…whenever I was getting over my last cold. I tried it then and didn’t taste much but sourness. Finally giving it a decent chance.
I can taste the vanilla in this one now! XD Totally missed that last time.
But it’s a lovely peach tea.
Wouldn’t buy it again, the it’s still nice. the 50 bags I have will last long enough, I’m sure! Another good tea from H&S!
Flavors: Peach, Vanilla
Finished the last of this sample today…a sad sample sipdown.
I wasn’t super sure of it at first. But a few more cups of it, and it made me consider really buying it again. I really dig the malt in this one.
Malt and vanilla. It’s just such a good combo.
I really like it in this one.
Might have to get more of this one.
Thanks to Mandy for this sample again! ^^
This tea will always make me so happy! It’s just like eating a sugar cookie, which I absolutely love! Makes me wish I lived in a place that actually gets a real “winter”. Would be the perfect tea for cold weather. Maybe one day I’ll live in a colder place. That would be nice.
But for now this tea will just leave me wishing. xD
Hah trade you! If I never saw snow ever again, I would be happy. I don’t mind short, mild winters, but here they’re usually incredibly long and bitterly cold.
This tea sounds tasty. Now I kind of want to bake sugar cookies.
feels like everyone has been drinking this lately…thought I’d join in finally. xD
I am happy I finally decided to drink it again now. Rough day. But this makes me feel a bit happier. It is comforting to have tea on the bad days (:
And it’s just as good as I remembered. Taste cherries and cocoa. And actually some malt that I don’t quite remember last time.
Lovely tea. Even on that bad days (:
Flavors: Cherry, Cocoa, Malt, Thick
Got a sample of this with my Yezi Tea order.
A few months ago I got Tealux’s version of as a sample from Virginia, and I absolutely loved it! So when I saw this tea on the Yezi Tea website, I couldn’t resist getting it!
It has that floral, perfume-y tea that I so adored in the Tealux version.
It has a certain creaminess, that’s not really my thing in oolongs so much, but the floral-ness makes it more drinkable for me.
It has that certain creaminess that I’ve tasted in milk oolongs…the kind that makes me kinda feel sick. xD So I’m glad that there’s a lot of floral in this.
But I think I like the Tealux version better.
Still a lovely cup of tea though. (:
After the last desert tea I began to get a craving for vanilla teas. I was going to drink The Persimmon Tree’s Periwinkle, but that will make me more awake than I want to be this afternoon.
Was kinda sad, but then I remembered that I had this vanilla black that’s decaf! :O
Harney & Sons has saved the day! :D
Mmm this one hit the spot. ^^
That’s something I have yet to try…a decaf version of any normally caffeinated tea. Can you tell by taste that it is decaf?
Hmm I don’t think so. I have the decaf version of Paris and the normal version of Paris and I definitely taste a difference but I can’t really tell with this one.
In my opinion, this is the best decaffeinated tea that I’ve tried. I’ve tried quite a few and I’ve tried some really good ones and some not so great ones … this one is the best I’ve yet to try because it doesn’t taste decaffeinated.
Well, that’s exciting news because I used to love drinking Bigelow’s French Vanilla at night till I figured out that might be why I wasn’t sleeping ;) It would be nice to find something that still has that kind of flavor (instead of a vanilla honeybush or rooibos) without the caffeine. Thanks for the tip!
