88 Tasting Notes
Really does taste strongly of caramel, vanilla and popcorn. Fun, sweet, and unusual. Makes a great latte too. The only thing I make sure to do with this is pick out the big chunks of cinnamon and throw them out, but that’s personal preference. I find that the cinnamon overpowers the other flavors if I leave it in.
Yes! After being let down by all of the other Christmas/holiday teas released so far, I’m so happy to say that I love this one, lol. I’ve always wanted to drink eggnog, because I love the smell of it, but I can’t stomach the idea of drinking raw eggs. This tea solves my eggnog issue. It smells just like eggnog and has such a rich, creamy, sweet, spicy flavor. I adore it and will be hoarding it for sure. This is going to be my go-to dessert tea over the holidays. I love how strong and complex it is.
I accidentally bought 200g of this, thinking it was Santa’s Secret (which is also a black tea, vanilla, peppermint, sprinkles concoction). It looks amazing with the candy canes, white chocolate chips and snowflake sprinkles. It just… doesn’t taste good to me. No matter how much I use, it just tastes like I melted a candy cane into some hot water. Weak peppermint. And it kind of makes for a thick, oily-ish brew. I wanted white chocolate, vanilla-ish tones, creaminess, and actual black tea, and I get none of those things. All of the Christmas/holiday offerings from David’sTea have been absolute duds for me so far this year. Depressing. I don’t know what I’m going to do with 200g of this stuff :/
I drink David’sTea instead of eating actual cake, and I feel pretty happy between Lemon Pound Cake, Red Velvet Cake, Birthday Cake and Carrot Cupcake (all amazing). Lemon Pound Cake tastes just like lemon infused cake topped with lemon-vanilla glaze, with a hint of gorgeous, vegetal oolong in the background. Yummy.
