I’m back to my current obsession: the FF darjeeling. Could not resist one more cup of tea for the afternoon. Today this strikes me as being kind of nutty and rich with light muscatel notes, I cannot believe the natural sweetness in the finish of this tea, it’s incredible and I am sooo happy. I bumped the rating up a couple of points.
see my previous note for more info. if you’re interested. :)

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, 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

Goomtee had an excellent second flush last year and I hope they can match it this time. Still, I’ve stockpiled a lot of FFs so they should last me a while.
I don’t know if I will sample any second flush teas, I am swimming in FF’S!!!!
