7 Tasting Notes
This was my first introduction to Genmaicha – I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. The background story was unique as well. Definitely a go to in my tea drawer.
Flavors: Rice, Toasted Rice, Toasty
Preparation
Winding down for the evening with a nice cup of Fantasy Island. One of the girls at DAVIDsTEA recommended it since I’ve recently taken a liking to teas with nutty flavor (like DAVIDsTEA’s Brazillionaire). Mostly your tastebuds notice the coconut flavors, however, the light flavor of raspberries add a nice touch at the end. Overall, a very enjoyable black tea that puts you in a good mood :)
Flavors: Coconut, Raspberry
Preparation
I’m a huge fan of brewing leaves and resteeping. Life gets busy and thankfully these bags allow you to take your fresh loose leaf tea on the go. My go to teas are oolongs but these bags don’t leave much room for expanding so I tend to use teas with smaller leaves – other than that ingenious invention!
Delicious! I will be the first to admit Black Tea is not my favorite type of tea, however, I have found that most of the Mariage Freres black teas I LOVE. I’m a huge fan of this silky and smooth taste with strong flavors of natural vanilla. A definite repeat :)
Flavors: Vanilla
