 | "The description of this tea makes it sound like dessert in a cup, but I wasn't as bowled over as I'd hoped to be."

First of all, the name of this tea is what got my attention. It sounds like dessert in a cup. Sadly, it doesn’t live up to that expectation. When I first inhaled the aroma, which I always do, it reminded me of coconut or chocolate. The taste of it is sweet without sugar or honey, but artificial. The package lists burnt sugar and caramel as ingredients, and I guess a general sweet taste could be construed as those flavors. I have been on a quest for a delicious amaretto tea and this one is akin to a generic tea I drank during this search. Overall, I was disappointed despite it being drinkable – it just didn’t wow me. One thing that I can say is that there is virtually no bitterness and the tea base is very smooth. Being new to the world of oolong, I think that may be par for the course. Perhaps I’ll try a plain tea of theirs.
