drank Cocotte by THEODOR
408 tasting notes

I don’t pick this tea very often and this is not justice because it is such an original and good tomato tea.
Yes tomato flower tea is an ingredient which pairs perfectly with Darjeeling…I should have had this idea…but Theodor had it before me… The insolent Parisian is a winner and his Cocotte is as well !
Beware the brewing parameters…Darjeeling is there for sure…2 minutes max and not too much leaves…and you’ll join the royal tomato magical garden.

Recently I was picking tomatos (fresh off the vine, and yes they really are so much better in everything) and so much enjoying the scent, it really was inspired of the insolent Parisian! still got some of this sample to try, thanks for reminding me of it, it is a perfect tea for now.

First, please forgive me for my English and all the grammatical mistakes you’ll find in my posts.
As English isn’t my mother tongue it sometimes makes things more difficult to express cleverly and accurately what I feel.

I was mainly in black flavoured teas, green as well if not bitter.
I’m now drinking much straight teas because my palate is now developed enough to appreciate them .

My favourite brands are : Taiwan tea Crafts, Teavivre, Mariage Frères,Theodor,Butiki Teas,Dammann Frères, Betjeman & Barton.
My ratings are as follow :

100 to 95 : my darlings; always in my cupboard (or very often ! )

94 to 90 : Excellent tea

89 to 80 : very good tea, a pleasure to drink it

79 to 70: not bad even quite nice, why not having it sometimes, but well,it’s not so urgent !

69 to 50 : Meh, deceptive or just not for me – but has some qualities

49 to 30 : I just don’t appreciate it

Under 30 : is this thing supposed to be tea ?!?!?
