If you like Milk Oolong, give this tea a try as well.

This tea reminds me of sweet desserts and best for me when I have a sweet tooth craving. I will be stocking this in a tin for sure.

drank Lime Gelato by DAVIDsTEA

I feel misled with this tea. The scent coming off of this tea is amazing! I love the citrus and creamy notes, I was excited to get a taste of this.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t taste like anything special. It tastes like a light green tea, very little vegetal taste though. It’s a tea that I have mixed feelings for, but I think in the end I’ll just say no.

Flavors: Citrus, Creamy, Fruity, Lime, Sweet, Vegetal

drank Lemon Pound Cake by DAVIDsTEA
87 tasting notes

Smelling the dry tea itself, you are reminded of a standard lemon pound cake. There is little to no artificial smell at all. When I smelled it, I was excited to give this one a try since I am a fan of smooth and buttery oolongs.

After steeping, the nutty note came through.

Exactly what it smells like, the vegetal note comes out more. Unfortunately, it’s not smooth. I would still recommend to those who enjoy dessert flavoured teas.

Flavors: Butter, Cake, Lemon, Nutty, Vegetal

I find that this tea and Splash! are very similar. It tastes about the same when Splash! is minus the ginger. I like this one a little better.

Although I normally don’t go for teas with cardamom and fennel, this one is okay in my books. I wanted to finish up with this tea and thought it would be horrible, but to my surprise it’s not so bad at all. I find that this is one of those teas that you drink to make you feel better inside and it would detoxify you!

I dunno what it is, but I like this tea. Not enough to buy a tin though.

drank Exotica by DAVIDsTEA

As many people have claimed, this is a very complex tea.

When I would steep this tea at 4 mins, this tea reminds me of thai curry. A lot of the flavours were blended together and I could not tell one apart.

I steeped this tea for 7 mins because I really wanted to draw out the flavours as much as I could. Lemon is the first flavour that comes out the most, then I taste the cloves and cinnamon. I never got a sweet taste from the coconut, oranges, or pineapple, which is a shame. At 7 mins this tea comes out to be more of a lemony tasting tea.

drank Kiwi's Big Adventure by DAVIDsTEA
87 tasting notes

A new favourite. This is the first tea that I have come across that I really enjoy hot and cold. From the dry notes, I got a very lovely sweet fragrance. When steeped, the same thing comes out…yippie! I thought this tea would be weak in flavour, but heck no, it’s loaded with sweetness for 2 steeps! I felt like I was drinking a fruit juice! The ingredients used were pure genius, they were able to get an very noticeable kiwi flavour! I love kiwi’s.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Mine didn’t have a ton of flavour, but because of the kiwi(?) it had a different fruity flavour to other flavoured greens from DavidsTea. Refreshingly different, if nothing else :)

drank Licorice Twist by DAVIDsTEA
87 tasting notes

I am not a fan of licorice. I really haven’t figured out why. I think that this tea is OK though, nothing too special.

To me this tea reminds me too much of Bravissimo, I find that there isn’t too much of a difference between the two.

There is a nice sweet after taste that is very cool and soothing. I really enjoy that aspect of the tea, other than that, I can’t really taste anything else in the tea.

drank Ice Cream Cake by DAVIDsTEA
87 tasting notes

This is a really interesting blend. For once I don’t taste the bitterness from the black tea.

As many said, this tea does remind me of Neapolitan ice cream. There is definitely a lot of sweetness that comes from the tea itself, so don’t worry about adding sweetener to it.
The taste is much lighter than expected. From the dry notes in the bag I was expecting a large kick when I drank it, but it was nice that I didn’t have to worry about that this time (compared to Chocolate Cake…which really kicked me in the face!).

I have mixed feelings about this one. Maybe it’s the stevia or carob, but I think the combination of the two I just don’t like!

drank Orange Blossom by DAVIDsTEA

Dry Notes: bubblegum
Wet Notes: bubblegum again!

I am really loving this one. I wasn’t expecting it so much but man! It’s such a lovely flavour. I kept going back for more…I think I drank close to 5-6 cups of this in a day.

The flavour is amazing, nice and sweet, no bitterness at all and it smells amazing—essentials for a great tea. I can’t really say much more, you have to try it. I love it! Will definitely buy a tin!
