I was looking for a nice black tea that I was able to drink in the evenings and the owners at Tea Time tea shop in North Vancouver BC recommended this one. This has become our favourite black tea to drink in the evening.

drank Red Velvet Cake by DAVIDsTEA

Had this yesterday when I was in the mood to try something really sweet. Dry the tea smells amazing! Brewed straight needed something so I added a bit of milk. Funny thing is I tasted more of a vanilla caramel flavour than chocolate cake. Probably not something I will add to my tea cupboard though.

Love this tea from David’s tea. I have tried a few different ones from David’s and am not fond of some of the ones with artificial flavoring. This one does not have any and it smells and tastes great. Today I am having it with a bit of almond milk but I like it straight as well. Bonus is that it is low in caffeine so I can drink it in the afternoon too!

I am pretty new to trying different types of loose leaf teas. Growing up we only ever had Chinese restaurant tea or bagged orange pekoe. Later on I tried genmai cha at the Japanese restaurants and added that permanently to my tea cupboard.

So far, I like oolongs and black. Most often I drink straight teas but I do like some flavoured ones as long as they don’t taste fakey or chemically. I would like to try more greens, whites and more Rooibos’ as well as anything that doesn’t have caffeine in it to add to my cupboard.

An attempt at a rating system:
90-100 worthy of being permanently stocked in my cupboard
80-89 great tea would love to have in my tea cupboard but probably in smaller quantities
70-79 very nice tea but I don’t necessarily have to have it
60-69 will drink it but not choose to stock it
50-59 prefer not to drink it unless it is all I have
<50 total miss for my tastes
