For someone who hates coffee, I was pleasantly surprised to love this! I added cream and sugar and it’s delicious. A surprisingly good combination of tea and coffee in one cup.

Really like this tea! Reminds me of a healthier version of fruit punch (which I used to LOVE before giving up juice). Tried hot at first, thought it was good, and then I had some cold and thought it tasted even better, definitely something I’d drink in the summer months :D

Delicious! The taste reminded me of an apple/cinnamon pie, oatmeal or porridge. I’m not the biggest cinnamon fan and this tea has quite the strong taste of it, but I still am in love without a doubt, so excited to have another 11 packs left, and maybe I’ll get myself some more once I finish :P Delicious.

Flavors: Apple, Cinnamon, Nuts

The taste of peppermint is rather strong in this tea, but I actually like it! I steeped it at 4.5 minutes and felt it was perfect for me, the mint taste wasn’t overwhelming and was rather refreshing to drink before bed (or early in the morning). Would only recommend to people who like the taste of mint, or peppermint though since the taste is very forward.

Flavors: Mint, Peppermint

drank Honey Lullaby by DAVIDsTEA
29 tasting notes

I feel bad for not enjoying this :( I got it for my friend and I and I regret it. It tastes like an elderly ladies perfume to me personally, although that may be because I’m not a huge fan of honey? I’m not too sure. Seeing the other peoples reviews, this may be right for some, but others, smell it first and if you like the scent then you’d love to drink it. Was only able to drink two tablespoons before tossing it in the sink.

Flavors: Honey, Perfume

I wasn’t a fan of green tea in the past, but this tea opened my mind to the flavour. It was really good, although had a very strong nutty aroma and taste, I still managed to really enjoy it. :D

drank Chocolate Orange by DAVIDsTEA

It has a weak taste of chocolate and nice orange taste, something I can see myself getting more of. Recommend this for anyone who likes citrus and chocolate combinations, as well as a lightly sweet tea.

Flavors: Chocolate, Citrus, Orange

I’m rather surprised with the reviews. I thought this tea wasn’t that bad actually, it reminded me of raspberry candy, which is slightly artificial but I don’t hate it. I also can’t seem to taste the ‘couch syrup’ taste others are experiencing, maybe because I steeped it for the minimum amount to dilute it a bit more.
All in all, not too bad. It’s nice if you’re someone who enjoys the taste of berries.

Flavors: Berry, Candy, Goji, Raspberry, Sweet

I had it again but steeped it less, also added a little cream and it tasted so good! I feel this is a favourite for me and am SO glad I have 100 grams of it or else I would have finished it all by now. Bumping my rating from a 55 to a 95.

Flavors: Bitter, Creamy, Tea, White Chocolate

Looks like you are new here. Welcome!
Cutting down the length of time you steep helps alleviate too strong of a flavor. If you leave tea to steep for too long it can result in a bitter cup. I usually steep for 3 minutes for blacks I haven’t tried before and adjust from there. Reading other reviewers steeping parameters for teas can help you figure out how to adjust for a particular tea.

Thanks Dustin! I’ll try that for sure next time, I steeped it for 6 minutes so that’s probably why. I appreciate the advice, it’ll probably help a lot :)
