<span itemprop="name">The "new" read my lips is Awful</span>
<span itemprop="description">I have faithfully drank this tea daily for the last 4 years and the new product released this fall (after the surprise hiatus) is TERRIBLE. The formula tastes like stevia and chemicals. I will not be buying this product ever again. I am disappointed that David's tea has made this change when so many people loved this product. I understand wanting to grow the marketplace but this was a huge (and unpleasant) switch.</span>

<span itemprop="name">Change the formula back - the new version is awful</span>
<span itemprop="description">It's been my favourite tea since 2013, the amount I drank it throughout the years is unbelievable. Just tried the new version and it's absolutely horrible. It's like a different tea altogether, the only thing left the same is the name, and I think this new formula doesn't even deserve to carry that name. Change it back - you are losing permanent clients and missing out on revenue.</span>

<span itemprop="name">So disappointed</span>
<span itemprop="description">This was my absolute favorite tea for years. Excited to see it back on the shelves this winter, I bought several tins of it and was utterly disappointed when I made a cup of as soon as I got home. It tastes nothing like the original. It used to taste like chocolate mint but now all I can taste is stevia. It has a very bitter aftertaste and it's just gross!</span>

<span itemprop="name">Huge disappointment they’ve now added stevia</span>
<span itemprop="description">This has been my go to tea now for the past 8 years.. It was pulled from the shelf back in March 2019,and brought back October 2019.. It doesn’t even taste the same as it did. Doesn’t have a black tea taste barley has a mint taste .. but all you can taste now is stevia</span>

<span itemprop="name">Not a fan of the new version</span>
<span itemprop="description">This was my daily morning tea for YEARS, and I was so disappointed when it was unexpectedly unavailable in the spring. When it came back, I bought a large tin of it, but it’s not the same. There is a new formulation that is nowhere near as good as the original. I can’t say exactly what is different, but it has almost a floral quality, which is sickly and gross. Please, bring back the original.</span>

<span itemprop="name">New Formula is a DUD</span>
<span itemprop="description">I really wish I would have noticed that this was a different formula from the one a few years ago (I had a nice stock- and just recently needed a restock). It definitely does not have the same minty flavour the old formula did— which is sad because that was the thing I loved the most. And then for stevia to be added to it on top of that? Blech. Like previous comments: if I wanted stevia in my tea, I could add it myself. Bring back the old recipe.</span>

<span itemprop="name">Not as good as the original- but still my fave</span>
<span itemprop="description">This was my favourite tea before they took it off the shelves in the spring- and was so excited when it came back. However- it is not nearly as good as the original- the smell is more artificial and there is also a taste difference. I am happy to have it back- but definitely prefer the previous version. Please bring that one back!</span>
