Dinosara drank Coconut Milky Oolong by The Tea Spot

Sipdown and backlog, 238. I am traveling again, this time off to California, and was so busy getting ready yesterday that I completely forgot to log the sipdown of this tea.

This tea was less than impressive. I wanted to love this tea, as I love milk oolongs and I love coconut oolongs, but my taste in milk oolongs is picky so I guess it’s not too surprising that this one would have ended up not one of my favorites. It’s tasty enough to drink, but it’s not nearly as creamy and coconutty as I would have hoped. Oh well, good to sip it down.

Have a good trip!

Profile

Bio

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.

I’m a grad student and in my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.

I have an Adagio Teas UtiliTEA kettle and a Tea Forté Kati cup for brewing. I also have a Chinese Ru Kiln tea set for gongfu brewing.

Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: These teas are mind-blowingly good to me.
89-80: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they’re not quite as spectacular as the top category
79-70: Tasty teas that I enjoy, but definitely won’t rebuy when I run out.
69-65: Teas that I would probably drink again, but wouldn’t seek out. They don’t quite do it for me in one aspect or another; often just not quite my style
64-60: Teas that I don’t really enjoy all that much and wouldn’t drink another cup of.
59-50: Bleh. I usually choose not to finish the cup because life’s too short to drink tea I dislike.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.
