I ♥ NewYorkCiTEA drank Cotton Candy Black Tea by 52teas

545 tasting notes

Backlogging. 6 days ago. Wednesday afternoon.

The February Backlog: From the 1st to today.

It seems like all the black teas in the 52teas 12 days of xmas teas are not morning teas. So after my first cup of the day I reached for this. I thought I had already logged it the first time I drank it when I opened it, but I only did about half of them then.

It definitely tastes like cotton candy. Pink cotton candy. And black tea. And yes, I do think the pink and the blue cotton candy taste different. This teas is really good. The second steep was even better, I think. Rating a 75 (good range 70-80).

Preparation

205 °F / 96 °C 3 min, 15 sec

Profile

Bio

I’m 33 years old, studying pharmacy, and have a surly cat named Bin. I love tea, coffee, beer, wine, and most things food and beverage related. I also love music, movies, reading, writing, and learning new things.

I’ve drank tea all my life but about five to six years ago, my close friend Spautz got into tea and got me more into tea. I drink black teas and tisanes/herbals most. Since receiving a variable temperature kettle from my parents for Xmas this past year, I’ve been drinking more greens, oolongs, and whites. I’m very very new to puerh. That is, I’ve had only one.
