118 Tasting Notes
Flavoured green tea isn’t really my cup of tea (hihi) but that’s OK. From the very first sip, a tangy sensation of ginger invades the taste buds. This spicy flavour is then counterbalanced by a sutble lemony freshness that lingers pleasantly in the aftertaste. A subtle fruity note completes the experience, adding a touch of sweetness without dominating the palate. It is particularly suited to those who enjoy spicy, lemony notes.
What a delight to have a connection in Paris and be able to visit a Dammann Frères boutique in person. Their “Quatre Fruits Rouges” blend, marrying black tea with notes of strawberries, cherries, and raspberries, conjures the essence of a fine red fruit jam. Its profound, rich flavour envelops the palate, making each sip a delicious morning ritual.
Flavors: Red Fruits
Preparation
Very good tea but it was a bit embarrassing to drink it because every time I would make it, someone in the office would shout « it smells like chocolate!!». This taste more like dark chocolate than milk chocolate and, even though I always hated dark chocolate because of the bitterness, I really enjoy this one! Another good chocolate tea from Davidstea.
I smell a bit of sweet strawberry. I could compare it to Four red fruits from Kusmi which is another strawberry black tea with a stronger strawberry scent. Very good but I would rather go with Noël à Prague and Coquelicot gourmand from this house, they have more personality whereas Jardin bleu is more average (but still good!).
I’m not sure of what I’m smelling first. Is it eucalyptus? It smells very strong, and I’ve already smell this before but I can’t put a name on it. It doesn’t taste incredibly good hot but I guess that’s the kind of herbal drink that you would rather drink for the benefits than for the taste. However, it is surprisingly good cold-steeped. Instead of a light yellow colour, it is bright pink and it tastes much more fruity.
