i am a tea fanatic. i have tried so many teas from different tea shops in canada and the states in my life that it is truly hard to keep up. but i know a great tea when i have it that's for sure. david's tea is OK, honestly. it's not the BEST quality tea i've ever had but it's not bad either. it's just boring in flavor, perhaps what i've tried anyway. what impressed me is their selection of pu'erh teas which a large majority of tea houses do not care to carry. it befuddles me because pu'erh is such a life saver- from helping large meals get digested to curing hangovers, i'm surprised it's not more popular. anyway, the CREME DE MENTHE tea is absolutely divine here. the smell alone is intoxicating enough that you feel like you've already had a cup. it is slightly pricy for the amount you get though and i wish they had deals where you could get more then 100g at a time for a better price.
i tried iced luscious watermelon and was not impressed. tasted like an ordinary fruit tea without many hints of watermelon like promised. perhaps it needs a little tweaking for i was told it's only a summer tea. another favorite is glitter & gold - not only is it a delicious black tea, it actually DOES shimmer if you pay close enough attention, or sip your tea real slow like i do. it's magical. other then the two black teas that i fell in love with, everything else that i've had (many of the fruit blends) have really failed to tickle my senses. i don't know why or what it is but i just cannot get into it.
i will be coming back to this place over and over for my pu'erh fix and perhaps over time i will find a fruity tea that i will find divine and alter this review. but until then i'll stick to my cup of glittering gold.
