What's the most outlandish, strange, or unique tea flavor that you've come across? I've tried something called Creme Caramel: the tea tastes like custard! Anyone have any interesting tea experiences to share?

I've tried all sorts, fruit teas, herbal teas, and all sort in between. Some of the more unusual i've tried would be the loose-leef rose (yes, the flower rose) tea i got from Amsterdam (comes from China orgigionally) and blackberry & nettle (who'd have thought nettle would be drinkable?). Well they are unsual to me anyway!

Hey, I've tried rose leaf too! That's right, it's a strange tea. But if you love roses, it does taste good.

I've tried a bunch of them. There's chocolate caramel tea, black tea with berries, white tea with mandarin orange, white tea with blueberries, green tea with berries, black spice tea, and a bunch of others.

When I was visiting a friend in the UK she took me to a famous department store called Herrod's. There I bought two of the most delicious teas. One was called "Sticky Toffee Pudding", and the other "Irish Creme". While both were black teas they actually did taste like sticky toffee pudding and Irish creme. They were fantastic. I used to have them as a dessert in fact. Another tea that I reallike like...and it's more for everyday drinking, is a green tea called gemni-cha. It's green tea with toasted brown rice in it. This makes the tea taste like rice too. It's a smokey, nutty taste. I really love it. I think it might be my favorite tea in fact!

I have some tea called Earl Grey de la Creme, and it's so sweet and creamy all by itself. I don't know how they do it.
