9 Tasting Notes

Royal Wedding Commemmorative Blend from Twinings
30

Ew. Not a fan of the rose flavour, & the bergamot is strong and completely overwhelms the white tea.

Blueberry & Apple from Twinings
35

I should learn to stop getting samples of infusions. I know I don’t like them. Overwhelmingly sweet.

Green Tea with Orange and Lotus Flower from Twinings
70

Quite nice. Definitely delicate, if not overly so. Lightly citrus-y with an underlying flavour that I assume is the lotus (only ever having had crystallized lotus seeds, it’s hard to judge).

White Tea with a hint of Pomegranate from Twinings
45

Odd. Really just tastes like a standard white tea with maybe an abstract hint of fruit.

Jasmine Earl Grey from Twinings
72

Surprisingly lovely. Despite my trepidation (It’s jasmine /and/ earl grey? They suggest adding milk?), the balance of flavours was quite nice. Floral without being overbearingly so, nor being drowned out by the Earl Grey’s trademark bergamot.

Four Red Fruits from Twinings
79

Really quite good. Gives off a super strong smell just as it starts brewing. Very nice balance between the tea and fruits.

Organic White Tea Sweet Citrus from Good Earth Teas
65

The first bagged white tea I’ve had. It’s certainly nice, but the citrus overpowers the white tea a bit, and as such, tastes a little over-sweet.

Yellow Label from Lipton
50

It’s okay. Nice for when I want something all purpose?

That’s the nicest way I can say how bland it is. It’s tea. It’s very weak tea.

Genmaicha from Metropolitan Tea Company
75
