- No, I'm actually not really doing antyhing, eh...
Oh, sorry, I gotta go.
Hi, this video is sponsored by Keeps.
So much of what us guys do is wrapped up in our hair,
so when you start noticing the first signs of hair loss,
it can be worrying.
But thankfully you could help prevent it with Keeps!
Did you know two out of three guys will experience
some form of male pattern baldness by the time they're 35?
Best way to prevent hair loss is do something about it
while you still got hair left.
With Keeps, you can get treated from home.
You used to have to go to a doctor's office
to get your hair loss prescription.
Now thanks to Keeps,
you can visit a doctor online
and get hair loss medication delivered right to your home.
They make it easy
and deliver your medication every three months.
You can say goodbye to those pharmacy checkout lines
and those awkward doctor's visits.
Hey, what's up doc?
Nothing, 'cause I got Keeps!
Keeps offers generic versions of the only two
FDA-approved hair loss products out there.
So you may have tried them before,
but probably never for this price.
If you're noticing you're losing your hair,
do something about it.

- If there's not one called Cana-tea-an,
I'm gonna be very disappointed.
- Very good!
(laughs)
(acoustic music)
- We are here to taste test Canadian tea.
I'm very excited.
I'm all wrapped up for the Canadian winter
- Drinking Canadian tea.
- Loads of lovely tea.
We love our tea.
And so do the Canadians, apparently.
- Apparently, yeah.
- I wouldn't be a big tea drinker.
Yeah, I know.
- Really? No that's okay.
(gasps)
- I just have this thing where I don't see the point
in drinking leafy water.
- Yeah, yeah, no, I get you.
(acoustic music)
- This smells very nice.
- Yes, it does.
- It is a very strong-smelling tea.
- They look like a pack of cigarettes, as well.
- Canadian breakfast. - Canadian breakfast.
- Black tea with a Canadian maple twist.
- Oh, that sounds nice.
And it smells decent like.
- It actually smells exactly like maple syrup
in a really nice way.
- That's the smell I got, it's maple.
- Ah, and you don't like that.
- Yeah, I don't love it, but I mean,
if it's a maple twist,
it might be subtle enough that it's fine.
I don't mind that.
- Ah, it's shit.
- It tastes kind of dirty.
- It does, it does.
It has a, yeah.
- It's not overpowering maple.
It's just a nice little hint.
- It tastes like tea.
- Yeah. (laughs)
- This kick in the background.
- Fell on the ground and was rubbed in the dirt
kind of earthy feel.
Just kinda (grunts) in there, you know. (grunts)
- Oh, some French toast with bacon
and maple syrup and this. - Oh yeah.
- It's really a salty kick in the back of your tea.
- But you just feel cozy.
- Oh, I just spilled it all over myself.
Wow, that was scalding hot.
Ah!
(both laugh)
- I have third degree burns.
- Ooh, this is real nice, actually.
I would happily sip some of this.
- Geez, now I don't mind that at all.
- Really? - Mm.
- These are those teas that it's like,
time to be healthy.
Whereas normal tea you're like,
time to have a treat.
- It doesn't need milk.
You see, Irish tea kinda needs milk
or lemon or sugar or something 'cause it's so strong.
The tannins, they'll get you.
- Really?
- Yeah. - Oh
- I don't wanna keep saying the same thing,
but this just seems pointless.
It's pointless, like.
- I do get you.
I actually, I understand.
- I do kind of get the comfortness of it,
but that's all.
The taste is just not for me.
- It's really good,
so the next one's going to be disgusting.
(laughs)
Yeah.
- They're gonna get steadily worse,
or the next one's gonna be Canadian skunk tea.
(acoustic music)
Rocky Mountain blend.
- Okay, Canada.
All right, don't shove it down our throats
- Celebrating the majestic beauty of Western Canada
with a strong blend of malty Assam
and brisk Ceylon teas.
I have no faith I pronounced any of that correctly.
- This smells more, more like an actual tea.
This smells like more the tea I'd-
Like Barry's and Lyons.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It smells kinda like the first one, but-
- Yeah, it smells the same.
- More bitter.
- I think you're going to like this.
- Really?
- Mm.
- Do you like that one?
- Spicy brown water.
- It's nice.
It tastes like the first one, just without maple.
- Oh, that's good.
Oh, that's good.
- I like this one.
I do, I'll say I like this.
This is, but a splash of milk in this,
now, I feel like I would enjoy that.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Actually, this one,
if you didn't know that there was tea in it,
you wouldn't be hard pressed to believe
that it's just hot water.
- Oh, actually, yeah.
(laughs)
- Sorry. - Yeah.
- There's no flavour in it.
- No shade, Rocky Mountain.
- Definitely is better than the last one.
- It's better than the last one
'cause I could drink loads of this.
The last one had a limit.
- I don't know what makes it mountainous.
- Oh, do you not get that echo in your ear
of a screaming cascading mountain climber, no?
Every time I drink it,
I just get- (screams into tea)
(laughs)
- Rocky Mountains are made of ice,
which is just the solid form of water.
So actually, this is not a lie.
- I could drink buckets of this.
- Get the woman a bucket!
(both laugh)
And have a bucket of tea.
How you doing?
- That would be to me now
more of a hot water than the last one.
So how do you feel?
- Yeah, maybe that's why I like it more.
- Yeah, maybe.
- It just, it does just taste like hot water.
- Yeah.
- But I like hot water and hot water is good for you.
- This is okay.
I don't like this, but it's actually all right like.
- Yeah.
- This is making me feel bad about my previous comments.
- Give him one sugar in the next one, Seán,
and let's see does he have a change of heart.
(acoustic music)
- This has got French on us, but that's fine.
- Do you wanna take it away?
- Because it's from Canada.
(laughs)
Melange De Rideau.
- Why's it got no picture?
- Rude Hall blend.
Ri, Ru, Ri, Rideow, Rideo.
- Superb blend of Kenilworth, Darjeeling, Assam,
and Yunnan teas.
- I don't know how to pronounce these.
I'm very sorry.
I'm also dyslexic,
so it's not just that I'm an uncultured swine.
- The big difference, I feel like,
between Canadian tea and Irish tea has been so far
that if we're buying Irish tea bags,
you buy a big box of a hundred of them,
where this is so select
and it's just a polite 10.
- Ooh, that's a bit minty, is it?
- This is kind of like the last one
where it just tastes like hot water,
but like a different hot water.
It tastes like a softer water.
- To put my neck on the line,
I would say that this is more like Barry's
and the last one was more like Lyons,
therefore I prefer the last one.
(gargles)
- That's right, if you gargle it,
you can get the infusion of mint grass and lemon tree.
- It doesn't taste the same.
- Yeah, it's different to the other one.
This one tastes more textured to me.
It's more of a textured hot water.
It's powdery.
- This one has sugar so it's nicer.
(both laugh)
It's 800% nicer.
- Yeah, the one sugar makes a big difference, doesn't it?
- Yeah, you have to spit it back,
and then you get the black tea-ness coming through.
Tea's stupid, okay?
- This tea is just water.
- Powdery hot water, gorgeous.
- I feel like a born again tea virgin or something.
- You'll be addicted to it now.
- I say tea is stupid.
I am stupid and I am well aware of that.
I still have tea in my eye.
So good job to me.
Splashed it all up there.
(acoustic music)
- Government Street blend.
Sorry, Government Street blend.
- Right, so now we're getting into the fancy teas.
- I like my government where I can see it.
- Down with politics. - In a cup!
- I think you forgot the bag.
Did you make a mistake? No?
- No, he's done that in purpose.
Presumably some kind of green tea,
or do you wanna check the box?
- No.
(laughs)
- This is not Canadian.
That's a Brit name if ever I saw one.
Government Street blend.
- It's very 10 Downing Street.
- Jasmine and bergamot.
Just call it that.
Why are you calling it Government Street blend?
- No? - No.
- Okay. - I'm not a fan.
- Just hot water. - Water, yeah.
It does taste kind of hot water again.
- I actually really like that, have to say.
- Okay. - Surprised at myself.
- Maybe if I just spit in it for a while.
No, not to cool it down.
Just to improve the taste.
- It's fine.
You'd buy a box being like, oh, Government Street blend.
- This is the tea that Justin Trudeau drinks.
- This is the tea that'll help me make a difference.
- My problem with tea,
which we've tried to extrapolate throughout this video,
is that it's just very boring.
But when there's little bits of extras in it,
I'm like, okay, I can get behind that.
- It tastes like a frog's house.
(laughs)
I think I'm saying it tastes like a pond, but-
- Yeah, it's green tea.
It does taste like green tea
(acoustic music)
- Sugar maple. - Lovely.
(rolls tongue)
- We thought we were done with the maple with the first one.
You've pulled an old switcheroo on us there.
- This is the non-coffee drinker's equivalent
of a pumpkin spice latte.
- Oh, yeah, yeah. - Do you know?
- A rich blend of black tea sweetened
with the flavour of maple.
Now, I liked the touch of maple in the first one.
I hope this isn't too overpowering.
The smell is actually so strong.
Can you get that?
- You surprised us there.
Maple to start, maple at the end.
We didn't see it coming.
- Keeping things spicy.
- Yeah, still not a fan.
- Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.
- Yes.
- It's so sweet.
- It's weird.
That's a weird one.
It's weird tasting.
It has an aftertaste of what's meant to be maple,
but it's not quite.
- That's how I used to drink tea
when I first started drinking tea
and I didn't actually like tea.
I used to put in seven sugars to try
and disguise the taste of tea,
and that's what it was like,
drinking pure liquid sugar.
- Which is probably why I quite like that one.
- Although it just tastes like hot water and maple syrup.
- It tastes like hot water with maple syrup.
Yeah, it does.
- It tastes like nothing,
and then it has an aftertaste of a napkin.
- I kinda like it.
- For me, this is too sweet now that I like darker teas now.
- Yeah, you've gone full tea hipster now.
You know what I mean?
- It's really good, yeah.
And the smell is the warming bit.
- Someone spilled some of the tea
and then the napkin they used to clean that tea up with,
and then squeezed it back into the cup.
- Exactly.
- Which is what tea really is.
- No, it is nice.
It is nice, but it's so sugary.
- We're gonna need to use the toilet so much after this.
(laughs) - Yeah.
- Get the bathroom ready, like.
- It's grand like.
It's not like you go,
"Ugh, oh my goodness, where's the TRY bucket?"
- Yeah, this is pretty good for me.
I feel like this is like a starter drug.
You know what I mean?
- It's a gateway tea.
- Yeah, this is what tea dealers give you for free
for your first time,
and then once you're addicted,
they swap it out for the harder stuff.
- I thought the teas in general were all very nice.
- When you get to come in
and have a few cups of tea with some friends,
it's a good day at the office, really, isn't it?
- It wasn't very tan-tea-lizing,
but I managed to get tea it.
I tried to say the word through and tea and it doesn't work.
Glad I tried it out on camera, though.
It's good to know.
- And it's very exciting 'cause so many countries
have shite tea,
so now I know there's one country I can go to
that has good tea.
So now it's definitely on my list to visit.
- Hey guys, thank you so much for watching.
If you want to hit like and subscribe,
that would be great.
So bad. (both laugh)
I'm so sorry.
I've never done a good one.
You may not know this,
but it's a little bit of a competition here
to see who can get into the end cards.
- What? I didn't know that.
(laughs)
- Tom's losing.
(laughs)
