Tina S. drank Oatmeal Raisin Cookie by 52teas

440 tasting notes

This tea makes Tina a sad panda. At first I was all excited for an Oatmeal Raisin tea. I adore David Tea’s the Glow because it tastes close to one, so one that added raisins too? Awesome! And then the reviews started coming in and said it was grape. Okay, no skin off my nose since I DO love the Glow AND I love grape teas.

But while it does smell like grape koolaid iced tea, I don’t get that flavour. I get a tea that has undertones of grape but isn’t quite successful at being a grape flavoured tea. The tea base isn’t bad, but the full flavour isn’t either of the flavours it could and should have been to keep me excited and falling in love. Sadly this one is a meh for me.

Bio

An avid tea addict in the GTA, Ontario, Canada. I’m always looking for new teas and new tea addicted friends!

My preference is loose leaf of all varieties, however the occasional bagged tea can come along and charm me. Flavoured or straight, there is a good chance that I will be falling in love.

My ratings system is based on the smiley faces above the ratings scale.

0-10 — This tea didn’t get past the initial sip process. I just couldn’t bring myself to drink more, I found it so horrible.

11-50 — It made it past first sips, but as I drank a bit more I realized I really wasn’t enjoying the tea, and would never drink it again.

51-60 — I probably made it through the cup, but won’t be trying another one.

61-69 — Either it’s a mystery tea and I can’t decide if I like it or not, or it is one that I felt was purely adequate.

70-85 — These are the teas that I appreciate and/or like. If they are falling in this area they are ones that I would definitely re-buy, however are not ones that I must always have on hand. The good, but not the amazing.

86-94 — These are the favourites. My cupboard feels empty if they aren’t inside.

95-100 — Tea perfection!
