drpastry drank Cherry Blossom [duplicate] by DAVIDsTEA

12 tasting notes

A really delicate little cup. Super nostalgic on the nose. Reminiscent of those cheap cherry suckers offered by the bank teller at the drive-through when I would ride along with one of my parents as a little girl. The cherry is present in the taste but more subtle than the scent would have you expecting. Still, far more cherry than blossom. No petals here. Tart.

For me, this is a real bust. As nice as the memories are, the taste of synthetic cherry is just not something I want in my tea, as I imagine others might feel.

Flavors: Bitter, Cherry, Flowers, Tart

Preparation

205 °F / 96 °C 4 min, 15 sec 1 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

I spend most of my day with books, and tea has become a spectacular way of both beginning, breaking, and ending the day. I also hobby around in the kitchen and a rooftop garden in my spare time.

As for taste, I’m really into well-composed natural herbals with nutty, piny, vegetal, or floral notes as well as bold, complex blacks, including chais. Milky matchas and taros are favorite indulgences, too, but in all honestly, I’m here to learn more about tea and am hoping to make my way into Oolongs and Pu-erhs as I empty out my cupboard. All the same, I hope my logs in general tell a story of palate expansion, discovery, and a fair bit of fun. I’ll try anything once.
