Fantastic for a straight green. Doesn’t get much better in fact. While I generally prefer pure oolongs over pure greens, I’d drink this every day if I could.

2nd steep, and I might have been a bit unfair after the first steep. Increased my rating slightly, as the berry taste has almost disappeared the 2nd steep and I can start to taste a bit of the bergamot and classic earl grey taste.

Oolong is fast becoming my favorite type of tea, and I was happy to see DAVIDs had done a blend with a familiar flavor. I knew it had to be mine. I expected it to be incredible, but I wasn’t expecting it to be so distinct on the schizandra berry front. I don’t get much earl grey taste at all, just dominant berry.

Not terrible, but not wonderful. Aside from Cherry Cola, this might be my least favorite offering from DAVIDs so far. And that’s OK, there’s bound to be 2 out of 50 I don’t adore.

Been meaning to add a tasting note on this for awhile. It’s magnificent, especially for a caffeine-free offering, which I don’t do often. Very similar to a rooibos in flavor, but sweeter. Honeybush is really an area of tea I need to explore more, especially after liking this one so much, and I’m sad there’s not much left in the packet.
