Chocolate Puerh from Numi Organic Tea
85

My last bag. I’m having it for dessert tonight and I’m trying to make it stretch to my entire little teapot rather than just a cup. Hopefully it won’t be too thin. Nothing wrong with the aroma though, so I’m feeling confident.

Mmmmm. Nom.

I made it in a pot once, it was a little weaker, but still delicious, and I know the feeling about stretching those bags out…

Yeah, it’s definitely weaker, even though it’s a small pot. It only holds two cups and I even left the bag in. It’s really bringing out the rooibos this way which I’m not entirely happy about, but I can deal with it.

Oh no, there’s rooibos in this? I don’t really like rooibos. But I’m dying to try this and have a 2-pack in my Amazon cart right now.

Stephanie, I don’t like rooibos either at all, but I find this really yummy. Unless you try to stretch the bag to more than one cup at the time like I did here, it’s only adding a note to the flavour without being very apparent. It was really apparent here because I was trying to use it for more water than was really good for it. Feel safe, go forth, buy tea. ;)

Two tealogs and reference to this one had me going to put it on the infinite SL, but it’s already there.

Bio

Angrboda felt her bio needed to be re-written, but she failed to consider what she wanted it to say instead.

Um…

Okay. Ang prefers black teas and the darker sorts of oolongs. She has to be in the mood for green and white and she enjoys, but knows little to nothing about, pu-erh.

Her preferences with black teas are the Chinese ones, particularly from Fujian, but also Keemun and just about anything smoky. She occasionally enjoys Yunnans but they’re not favourites.

She is sceptical about Indian blacks as she generally finds them too astringent and too easy to get wrong. She doesn’t really care for Darjeelings at all.

She likes flavoured teas as well, particularly fruit flavoured ones, but also has an obsession with finding the Perfect Vanilla Flavoured Black.

However, she thinks Earl Grey is generally kind of boring. Cinnamon and ginger are also not really a hit, and she’s not very fond of chais. Evil hibiscus is evil. Even in small amounts, and yes, Ang can usually detect hibiscus, mostly by way of the metallic flavour of blood it has.

Ang is not super impressed with rooibos or honeybush. She doesn’t care for either, really, but when they are flavoured, there have been known to be surprising exceptions to this rule.

Ang has a number of teas that she regards her Standard Panel and will always try to have on hand.
-Lapsang Souchong, any brand really, but preferably AC Perchs.
-Blackberry flavoured black or similar, any brand.
-Late Summer Blend, AC Perchs
-Raspberry Oolong, AC Perchs OR Red Fruits Oolong, Le Palais des Thes
-Caramel, Kusmi OR Toffee, Le Palais des Thes
-Something orange flavoured, black or pu-erh, any brand.
-Tan Yang Te Ji, Teaspring OR Bai Lin Gongfu, Teavivre
-A good Keemun, any brand.
-The Perfect Vanilla Black if and when she ever finds it…

Angrboda is almost always open to swapping. Just ask her.
