My morning cup. This is an ok Ceylon, but it was too light for my first cup of the day. This is more of an afternoon tea.
The tea has a very slight floral taste as well as a note of hay. It was a bit dry on the back of the throat. I was reminded of late summer when everything has been baked by the sun for weeks on end. Dry and crisp but also a little hazy around the edges.
This tea was from the teabox, and while I liked it it’s not a tea I see myself buying. It was nice to try though.
Tea obsessed since 2010.
My Rating System:
100-95 = Teas I actively seek out and keep in my pantry. If you are a guest in my home chances are I will offer you one or all of these teas. Also, if/when these teas are discontinued I openly mourn their loss.
94-85 = Teas I truly like, often have in my pantry, and sometimes restock. These are my variety-is-the-spice-of-life teas.
84-75 = They’re good teas and I enjoy drinking them on occasion.
74-65 = These teas are ok, but not really my thing.
64-55 = meh.
54-45 = I will if I have no other option.
44 and below = Coffee, please.
