2170 Tasting Notes
This is one of the few white teas I’ve enjoyed, so it’s a little sad to finish the last of this one knowing it won’t be coming back. It’s not an all-time favorite, but I’ve enjoyed it each time I’ve had a cup.
Flavors: Peppermint
Preparation
Tasting this before adding anything and the stevia really jumps out at me as the single dominating flavor. After adding a bit of cream and honey (yes, even with the stevia), it’s pretty much heaven. Somehow those additions temper the artificial taste and bring out the delightful flavors of the blend.
Flavors: Artificial, Stevia
Preparation
I can’t remember if I have had this before or not? Probably since I’ve had a lot of DT. But it would be lovely to find a blueberry tea that didn’t have stevia. Do you have any you’d recommend?
The only one I can think of that is a blueberry black tea is this one:

I tried it in their sampler box and really liked it!
https://www.barharbortea.com/ have some blueberry teas as well, but sadly I have no experience with their tea.
I have wrote them an email approx. year ago if they are able to share some samples with me (tea bags only) and they never replied. Shipping for me was terribly expensive.
I definitely should not have sweetened this one. All I can taste is the licorice which is cloyingly sweet already. Yikes.
Flavors: Licorice
Preparation
A sad sipdown for me. I discovered too late, long after Teavana had already closed, that I love this blend. Adagio is encouraging me to Buy Now their supposed equivalent Thai Chai, which I’ve had before and didn’t like nearly as much. There are some similarities, both have ginger and coconut, but this is a rooibos and the other is a black tea. To me, that’s an important distinction. I have some other rooibos chai blends that I enjoy, so I’ll be okay without this one. It’s probably good that I’m finishing it now since it’s starting to taste a little bitter around the edges.
Oh wait, it’s still autumn…
This is one of my absolute favorites! I also really like Teeccino’s Butterscotch Cream Chaga Ashwagandha tea (which sounds very weird and/ or nasty, but it’s really very delightful)!
That actually sounds amazing and not weird/nasty at all! I don’t think I’ve had a Teeccino blend that I haven’t liked, but I admittedly haven’t tried most of their blends.
