Auggy drank Lapsang Souchong by Samovar

This actually seems a little sweeter than I remember. I’m not sure if that is from my decreased sense of smell or if I was remembering it wrong. Still quite bold and super-smoky though. That certainly hasn’t changed.

Maybe you’re experiencing the same sort of ‘omg-sugar???’ thing that I had the other day. It was seriously weird, but it was rather nice.

I did think of your recent log when I tasted the sweetness! It was unexpected but I liked it. I think GM has a sweeter LS and I did like that a lot.

I’ve decided that I rather like how inconsistent I’m finding it to be lately. It’s like familiar and well-known and yet not boring at the same time. It’s nice-inconsistent rather than annoying-inconsistent. Keeps it interesting. :)

Haha – I can see that! Especially since lapsang souchong has a distinctive enough taste that even if the details change, it’s still the same basic tea experience.

I’ve decided to brave the slowness that is Steepster because I miss seeing all the good teas folks on here discover! Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.

1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
