drank Cuppa Joy! by TranquiliTea
694 tasting notes

I received this is a “Mystery Swap” with Allie. Thank you for sharing!

So since I don’t know the history of this tea, when it was bought, how it was stored, I am going to chock my review and my tastings up to packaging. The first sip to me tasted like this tea picked up the flavor of the inside of a plastic bag it was shipped in. I get no hints of almond or even a black tea taste. I liked the name of this tea and, based on the name I was hoping for an “almond joy” tea.

Hmm… I think it is the bag. It was purchased in November and stored in the air sealed bag it was purchased in. It should taste similar to an almond cookie. :-/

Oh man:( I think it must be the bag. I will have to give it one more shot just in case it was my morning taste buds working against me.

I started drinking tea while on a 4 month long cycling trip through South America. It seemed to always be a great way to warm up when I was cold and it was always available everywhere. Mate was the big tea of choice down there and it was also a great way to get to know people. When I returned home, my sister introduced me to Teavana and this launched me into the realm of loose leaf tea.
