Vanilla Orchid was quite a surprise. A lot of times DavidsTea’s flavorings overpower the taste of the tea itself, but I didn’t think that was the case here. The vanilla flavor wasn’t too overpowering and nicely complemented the oolong. Plus, it smelled delicious!
I steeped this multiple times, but only the first cup had the subtle vanilla flavor. On subsequent steeps, I got more of the very slight floral flavor from the oolong, though.
