drank Caramel Corn by DAVIDsTEA
116 tasting notes

So after trying this for the first time last night (hot) I decided to cold brew a serving in the fridge overnight.

Somewhat murky and pink (must not have had much beet root in last night’s steeping), I found the scent to be more subtle than when brewed hot, still caramel corn but just not as in your face about it. There’s also quite a few more fruity notes too.

All of that carried over to the flavor… I found it to be less dark then the hot tea that I tried last night but for a cold brew that works just fine for me. The caramel is subtle and mixes with the fruit in a rather interesting way. I also wasn’t expecting to find it as refreshing as I did which was also a pleasant surprise.

(PS. One note that I didn’t make last night that holds true to both the hot and cold brews that I’ve done with this one… It’s very sweet, like dessert tea sweet. Which when your in the mood for it is great but I’ll need to keep it in mind for the future.)

Ever since I discovered the wide world that is loose-leaf teas, I haven’t been able to go back. It doesn’t seem to matter what type it is or if it’s “straight” or “flavored” tea is my thing. It’s actually quite funny as I’m surrounded by coffee lovers who just can’t quite grasp why, to me, tea is better than coffee. :D (which considering it’s less-than a 5 minute walk to each of 2 separate Tim Horton’s, a Starbucks AND a Second Cup… that’s saying something!)

On the whole I tend to prefer my tea strong and “au natural” with no sweeteners, milk or other additions, but like most everyone there’s always exceptions to the rule… just not many of them.

Aside from tea I love reading (especially if there is a fireplace or campfire involved), camping/hiking, horseback riding and Healing Touch (similar to Reiki). Oh and computers and board games (euro style, is there anything else? ;)) and… and… chuckles OK so I have a large variety of interests.
