4 Red Fruits from Kusmi Tea
91

Thanks to Tamm for sharing this with me. Somehow this just seems like one of those days where no amount of tea will ever wake me up, but that doesn’t stop me from trying.

The dry leaf in the bag smells so good – like cherry berry yumminess. I am hopeful!

I’m a big fan of fruit flavored teas. The black tea base here tastes very smooth and chocolate-y to me. I am getting a lot of current and strawberry flavor here. I took it plain but then decided to add a little bit of soymilk to it, so now it’s almost like a dessert tea. I didn’t think it needed sugar at all. This is one of my favorite Kusmi blends so far but it doesn’t seem that much different to me than a regular black currant tea (which I also like)

I am reminded ever so slightly of a black forest cake. Perhaps Kusmi should add some chocolate to this?

Bio

My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.

Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta

95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around

94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase

89-80 Pretty good, above average

79-70 Acceptable

69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it

59-50 Ick

49 and below Nasty
