2657 Tasting Notes
This was delightful. I drank the whole bag much too quickly. It has a familiar 52teas spice blend, but one that I always enjoy. The base supports the flavor profile perfectly. It tastes desserty, like I could really see it being an oat crumble of some kind. I never tasted any cranberry. This was best cold sweetened with milk.
TTB! The rose was too strong for my preferences. It just has a weird sour tang to me, and combined with the raspberry, it all ends up too tart and floral. I left the cup in the fridge for 48 hours, and then the flavors became much more muted and enjoyably fruity. But I wouldn’t want it again.
Reddit TTB tea! I taste a lot of mint, but also lemongrass. This must also include some sweetener because it was super sweet. Even the resteep was sweet, and sometimes that becomes a bit cloying. Actually, the licorice-like sweetness is the strongest flavor of all.
I bought this in Flagstaff in November when we were visiting the Grand Canyon! I was super drawn to the name and the fact that it’s herbal, but there are no pine-like ingredients listed. Really, it’s a pretty light chai and mostly tastes like licorice. It’s not bad with milk, but I definitely wanted something more woodsy. In some cups, I can sort of convince myself that I taste something foresty, but certainly not pine.
The ingredients of this one were so simple, I probably shouldn’t have gotten it, I just love lemongrass in a tea! It turned out quite straightforward, as expected. I mostly taste lemon, and it’s a bit tart for me at times. So this one is sort of like having lemonade. I enjoy some cups more than others.
