JacquelineM drank Tan Yang Te Ji by TeaSpring

Delicious. Everything I expected, and more. An extremely fine example of a Gong Fu black with all the roasty, chocolatey, tangy wonderment that implies.

Mmmmmmmmmmm!

Another tea which makes me say, “Is this REAL!?” How can this other plant produce sweet chocolate!?!?!?

Oh the little TYTJ!!! I’ve been going on and on and on about this one for so long now, I’m starting to feel all proud of it every time I see somebody having a good experience with it. :D ♥

Profile

Bio

I love to cook, bake, read, paint, knit, do needlework, and garden. I need my coffee, but I LOVE my tea. I work at an Art School, and I am currently taking classes in order to become certified to teach.

I enjoy writing tasting notes, but have decided not to numerically rate teas as of 9/14/10. For an explanation, see my looooong tasting note about Mountain Malt from the Simple Leaf.

My favorites:
Chinese black teas
A good “milk and sugar” English style black
Earl Grey (classic, and in all variations!)
Vanilla teas (classic, and in all variations!)
Jasmine, Rose, Violet and other froofy, flowery teas!
An Occasional Oolong
Flavored Rooibos
Herbal Tisanes
