drank Pina Colada by HYLEYS
1104 tasting notes

I have to stop buying black tea, thinking that because it’s “flavoured”, I’m miraculously going to love it. That being said, this isn’t bad. I think they achieved what they were going for, flavour-wise.
A black tea base which is a little bitter and astringent with a predominant coconut taste. You get the tropcal vibe but I don’t get anything pineapple-y per se, it’s just a hint of sweetness but it works. Nothing lactonic at all. I’m wondering if this might be nice with some almond milk and sugar? Perhaps. Still, it absolutely does remind one of a Pina Colada so it gets points for what it advertises. A solid 7/10!

Flavors: Astringent, Bitter, Coconut, Sweet, Tropical

Sounds like this might ice down nicely when the weather gets hot.

Bio

I’ve been a member of Steepster since 2014 and decided to finally update my ancient Bio now that it’s 2022. (Updating again in 2024!)

I’ve loved tea my entire life, since I was a kid. Starting with Orange Pekoe, then Irish Breakfast, Rosehip, Earl Grey, Green and White and now, I’ll drink or at least try, just about any tea.

One of my favourite things to do is meeting my friends at the coffee shop, sitting and sipping for hours while we chat and laugh and enjoy each other. We try to do this at least once a week or when our work schedules match up. Tea and coffee brings people together!

I live in Ontario, Canada and work at a Winners/Homesense combo store.
I have a 12 year old cat, Tucker, who is diabetic and asthmatic (and completely toothless) but still enjoys his life to the fullest and he truly is the sweetest boy.(Tucker sadly passed away in 2023, one month after he turned 14.)

I don’t always post every single time I drink tea, I’m kind of sporatic that way but I do enjoy reading what you all are drinking and your reviews.

Stay safe and healthy!
-Jason
