Shadowfall

Scorpio (The Zodiac Series) from Adagio Teas

Shadowfall drank Scorpio (The Zodiac Series) by Adagio Teas

Not too bad, but not really great either. It smells wonderful in the tin, but to be honest, I wasn’t that impressed with the actual taste of it brewed. To me it smelled/tasted a bit bitter and I couldn’t really find any of noticeable tastes of chocolate, vanilla or mango. It might be that I just used too hot of a temperature and burned it, though with a black/rooibos combo, I didn’t think you really could. Still going to mess with the brewing temp a bit next time since it can’t hurt.
Most likely I think it’s my own taste since I’ve been drinking mainly oolongs and whites lately.
This is one I’ll keep around and revisit now and then, definitely when I’m on more of a black kick.

I wanted to cut soda out of my life, so I started drinking more tea. Now I’m quickly becoming addicted. But that doesn’t seem like so bad of a thing considering all there is out there to try.
I’m most fond of peachy, fruity, sweet teas. But I’m trying to branch out. Spicy stuff not so much since I can’t seem to get past the spice taste to anything underneath.
I started with blacks, but oolongs are quickly becoming my new favorite. Unfortunately, I haven’t really been able to find a green or white tea that I really enjoy. Eventually maybe.

Open for swaps. If you see something in my cupboard that you’re interested in, feel free to send me a message about it. Unfortunately alot of what I have in my cupboard are sample sizes and as such, I don’t really have a whole lot to swap after I sample. But it never hurts to ask. ^^
