another tea from today. Still think this is more creamy than caramel and the taste just isn’t strong enough. Not sure what to rate this but it’s not a bad tea heh

noms. another sample from dexter that i had earlier today. Unlike the other, this one is super tasty and delicious. I steeped it a couple times and while the first steep was my fav (as usual) the second one was also quite enjoyable. Malty, honey, chocolate goodness. thanks dex!

Another surprise tea from dexter. I had this one earlier in the day and sadly, i’ll have to play with it some more. It wasn’t a BAD tea..just sort of middle of the road average. Hoping that tweaking the temp/timing will result in some more interesting flavour.

My only tea today so i made it a good one. Woke up early after a late night and walked 10 km to get to the don valley meeting point to then spend another 3 hours walking and raking leaves in the valley to prep the trails for winter. It was exhausting but TOTALLY worth it. Made myself a travel mug full of this one to enjoy through the day. delicious chocolatey goodness. So glad i still have a bunch of this.

this was so nice to have in my cupboard for a fleeting moment. I adore this tea and the reality of it was totally up to par with my memories of it. Noms.

Will you take more? I’m not drinking it much so it will continue to age in my cupboard. With that said, I did have a cold brew of it at work with me this week that was nice.

Sil

i will take more but only if we meet up sooner rather than later haha

VariaTEA

Okay. Works for me. Though I think we should wait until my most recent tea orders arrive so you can steal some of those teas as well (if there are any that interest you)

Sil

sure heh

drank Watermelon Houjicha by 52teas

Sadly i can’t remember who shared this with me, but i THINK it was kitenna this is a really pleasant watermelon flavour, though the nutty/toasted notes from the hojicha are overwhelming the watermelon a bit. I enjoyed it though :)

dexter sent this one my way which is nice ‘cause i’ve never heard of this company. this is a lighter yunnan. There’s nothing here to knock my socks off but it’s still a pleasant, middle of the road tea for me. No caramel notes for me, but i’ve got more to play with to see if i can find the best way to brew it :) regardless i good cup of tea! thanks dex!

Good morning!

Sil

i miss you!

Terri HarpLady

I miss you too! I miss having time to write tea reviews! I’m practicing my @$$ off for back to back orchestra gigs! This week it’s the Nutcracker. Also, there is the Post-Election-Pre-Apocolypse to contend with ;)

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
