tea-sipper drank Caramel Popcorn Movie Night by The Angry Tea Room

4267 tasting notes

Thanks again, Angry Tea Room! I knew I would be in love with this blend when I opened the pouch and the scent was lovely. Though I’m not sure you could drink this for movie NIGHT since it is full of caffeine (black tea, roasted yerba mate) but if you have a lazy movie day this is perfect. I used two teaspoons because this is FULL of ingredients other than black tea, roasted yerba mate and rooibos: huge caramel balls, popcorn and corn kernels, barley and sea salt. The taste is delicious. Plenty of sweetness from the caramel. An even balance of flavors between the black tea, the roasted yerba mate with hints of rooibos. I would have loved more of a buttery and salty flavor to represent popcorn, but it ain’t lying with the caramel. The second steep even LOOKS like caramel! The caramel pieces have completely melted in the brew, leaving it a foggy caramel color. The most caramel tea I’ve ever tasted! I think I steeped both steeps perfectly. I will definitely be stocking up on this one!
