3 Tasting Notes

Masala Chai from Samovar
88

A delicious blend of black peppers, cardamon, and cinnamon is found in this Chai. I don’t often use cream/milk in my teas, so this tea is quite pleasant just by itself. I bought a larger quantity of it as it was on sale when I did, and I’m glad I did! Delicious. :)

Lychee Black from Samovar
81

The scent: I remember this smell from when I was a young lad and in a room filled of old ladies pinching my cheeks of cuteness. It is simply the smell of old-lady perfumes. I do not like the smell, but as I’ve noticed it doesn’t come out in the taste.

The taste: Nothing like the smell. It has a nice floral finish with a subtle reminder of earl gray. I don’t mind its flavor at all, and will surly try it again and again.

Lapsang Souchong from Samovar
25

So incredibly smokey in flavor it was overpowering in smell and lacked gratification to finish the first glass let alone a second helping. I found the smell to be of cheap liquid smoke and the aftertaste to be of a dark woody portabella mushroom. I’ve since trying this tea given it to someone else to try and rate.
