drank Caramel Nut by Teeccino
4125 tasting notes

I recently ordered a bunch of Teeccino samples. I’m not a big coffee drinker, though I do have a cold brew with oat milk every morning. But I had heard multiple people rave about Teeccino around these parts, so I had to give it a go. Unfortunately my grocery store only seems to carry the dandelion line, so naturally I had to go overboard on their website (heh heh) and order 10 different flavors to try.

I’ve had the Mocha and this Caramel Nut, and overall I really like them. I will say this particular one is a bit too “flavory” for me, but then again I tend to not love caramel-flavored things. Real actual caramel sauce, yes, but caramel flavoring not so much.

Regardless, still very tasty as a warm cuppa with oat milk. Roasty and toasty but not too much so (I’m a light roast gal), and the dried fruit sweetness doesn’t taste weird, like natural sweeteners often do. Looking forward to trying some more flavors!

Flavors: Almond, Artificial, Butter, Caramel, Coffee, Nutty, Pecan, Roasted, Roasted Nuts, Smooth, Sweet, Toasted

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 5 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Hi, I’m Cameron!

I’m a 30-something software engineer currently living in Austin, Texas with my husband and our two pugs, Gobo and Ume. I tend to cycle between my different hobbies, and they include piano, knitting, video games, board games, miniature painting, planners, bento, Korean skincare, and – of course – TEA! But really, what I’m best at is “collecting” hobby-related things… ;)

I prefer my tea lukewarm or at room temperature and without milk or sugar. I steep Western style, and fluctuate between using big mugs or small teapots depending on the season.

I am always up for a swap! Just let me know if you’d like to try something in my cupboard.

Tea Preferences:
I enjoy both flavored and unflavored teas in many forms. These days, I drink mostly flavored teas, and I tend to gravitate most toward black, green, oolong, and herbal varieties. I do have a special fondness for straight Japanese green teas, however.

I do not sweeten my teas, and pre-sweetened teas are usually too sweet for me. I also do not enjoy stevia.

I tend to reach for fruitier flavors rather than desserty ones these days, but I do have favorites from both categories. Willing to try anything once! There are a few ingredients/flavors that aren’t generally my jam, such as coconut, rose, lavender, and chocolate flavoring. But I also have teas that I love with some of those things, too! :)

Favorite Companies:
3 Leaf
Bird & Blend
Dammann Frères
Harney & Sons
Kyoto Obubu Tea Farms
Lupicia
Old Barrel Tea Co
Simpson & Vail
Taiwan Tea Crafts
TeaVivre

Tea Rating Scale:
90-100: Outstanding! Permanent cupboard resident
80-89: Great – a possible staple
70-79: Good, but I wouldn’t buy it
60-69: It’s decent
50-59: Meh… I may or may not have finished the cup
40-49: Ick. Couldn’t finish it.
00-39: Repulsive, I spat it out

I will sometimes refrain from rating a tea if I feel I’m too biased due to my personal dislikes, or if I suspect the sample has been compromised by age or scent contamination.
