Pom Tango from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
Good aroma, good flavor. This was brewed for 5 minutes and served hot without milk or sugar. It tastes more strongly of mango than pomegranate.
I liked it, but it didn't wow me. This would probably be great as an iced tea and I'll update if I try it that way.
Cool Cucumber from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend30 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
Oh my. I hate to be so negative, but this is just gross. It smells like cucumber before brewing. While steeping, it smells more like cucumber and mint, which is interesting because there's no mint in the ingredients list. I didn't smell/taste the melon in the description.
This was steeped for 5 minutes with boiling...
Bollywood Chai from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
Yum! This tea smells amazing, is very pretty, and tastes great!
It contains tiny fennel seed candies, which are fun and add sweetness. I'd eat the candies alone! The pink peppercorns can also clearly be smelled and tasted.
I steeped this for 5 min using boiling water. I didn't add sugar or milk, but may try th...
Glitter & Gold from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
I'm a sucker for pretty things, and this tea is really gorgeous. It contains gold sugar beads and little silver sugar crystals.
Before, during, and after steeping, the smell is awesome. It's spicy and sweet smelling. I infuse this for around 5 minutes.
The taste is very good, and the spiciness apparent in ...
Organic Blueberry Jam from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
I'm learning that most flavored teas smell great, but don't always have the best flavor. It's not to say that I don't enjoy them, but many taste at least a little artificial.
This is an ok tea, but it's not amazing. I steep it for about 5 minutes and it has a subtle blueberry flavor. I think I need to get over ...
Chocolate Rocket from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Yerba Maté – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 28th, 2014
If I'm drinking a flavored tea, I like to easily discern the advertised favors. I shouldn't need to go hunting for the chocolate in a tea called "Chocolate Rocket". And with this one, there's no search needed.
Woo! Chocolate! I even pick up some of the raspberry in the tea description.
The smell is amazing, t...
Toasted Walnut from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 28th, 2014
DAVIDs Toasted Walnut tea smells great, but the flavor is lacking. Before and during steeping, the sweet scent is quite pleasant. To me, it smells like baking cookies.
I steeped the recommended amount for around 3 minutes to start, and had a little test sip. The flavor was very weak. I let it brew for another ...
Sugar and Spice from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 31st, 2014
The dry leaves smell just like the carrot cake my mom would make for my birthday when I was a wee little one. The aroma is rich and sweet, blending carrots, spices, and vanilla for an added extra frosting like treat.
The taste is spicy and earthy, like an unsweetened carrot cake. The spices are subtle, no kick in th...
Coco Chai Rooibos from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 20th, 2014
This is a wonderful caffeine free alternate to overly sugary hot chocolate.
The red peppercorns, cardamom and ginger give this rooibos chai its character. To enhance the flavor, I take out a few of the whole cardamom and pepper seeds and crush them before adding back to the mixture. We add a bit of honey which makes...
Organic Saigon Chai from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 20th, 2014
the Saigon cinnamon and pink peppercorns give this chai its character. The whole cardamom and cloves are great and maintain their flavor over time. To enhance the flavor, I usually isolate a few of the whole cardamoms, pepper seeds and cloves and gently crush them before adding back to the mixture.
The tea is a bit...
David's Breakfast (David's Organic Breakfast) from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 23rd, 2014
This is my favourite tea from David's tea. It's very simple yet does the job. It's priced to be the kind of tea you can drink 5 times a day.

Cranberry Pear from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 12th, 2014
This is my first DavidsTea. I received in a tea swap called The 12 Days of Christmas. We had a tea for each day, this was Day#1. The tea itself was fragrant and pleasant to look at. Taste was nice, I only detected the taste of the black tea and pear as well as the artificial flavoring they add and wondered if this ...

Toasted Marshmallow from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 10th, 2014
The aroma is sweet and spicy, notes of marshmallow, cinnamon, toffee, and malt with a strong note of allspice. Smells a bit like spiced rum. The brewed tea still smells like spiced rum with less marshmallow sweetness. The liquid is much sweeter with strong spicy notes.
The taste sweet and malty with a velvety mouthf...
Cocomint Cream from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 10th, 2013
The aromas are mint, apple, and coconut, all three are very strong and fairly sweet. I do not find they blend well together. When brewed the aromas of those three are still very prominent with a slight hint of citrus.
The taste is odd, it is not bad but certainly not for me, I do not find that mint, coconut, and ap...
Bamboozled from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 9th, 2013
The aroma is heady, sweet, and slightly green. Once brewed the tea takes on a more citrus quality and brings out more the floral.
The taste is sublime. The subtle sweetness blends perfectly with the tropical pineapple and sweet peaches. Perfect for a summer day!
Guangzhou Milk Oolong (Quangzhou Milk Oolong) from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Oolong – Region: China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 25th, 2013
I should say I like this tea, but I do have a gripe about labeling. Milk oolongs aren't, in and of themselves, flavored teas. As I understand it, the name is applied to a particular oolong variety that has a milk-y flavor and aroma. However, some companies add flavor to their milk oolongs further to increase the milkyn...

Kenyan Tinderet from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Black Tea – Region: Nandi, Kenya73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 22nd, 2012
An excellent tea. Small pellets and a soft pre-brew aroma. The full recommended measurement and steep time produce a very bold, slightly bitter tea with a dry after taste but very refreshing. This tea is not over powering in flavour or aroma however is very full bodied.
