8 Tasting Notes

White Tea with Pomegranate from Whittard of Chelsea
86

I love this stuff! Thick and sweet. It’s the first white tea I’ve actually enjoyed.

Original Blend from Red Rose

Just a general black tea, pretty much. Better than Lipton, but not by a whole lot.

Lipton Black Tea from Lipton
26

This is the black tea I grew up with, and I liked it until I tried Yorkshire. It’s still ok, but I have to be in a weird mood to drink it and it’s usually as a last resort. It tastes kind of…sour lately, and it’s pretty weak.

I have a box of it, and it’ll get used, slowly.

Earl Grey Tea Latte from Tazo
16

I had this at Starbucks. I didn’t know they’d left the teabag in, so it got pretty nasty, and wasn’t very good to begin with. I think maybe I’m just not used to my Earl Grey being a latte, though. I like Tazo’s regular Earl Grey, and have it at home.

Get Smart - No.16 (Wellness Collection) from The Republic of Tea
50

This stuff is pretty good! I’m usually not much of a rooibos fan—it tastes like cough syrup to me, but there wasn’t too much of that in this tea if I didn’t brew it for too long. As far as actually increasing concentration, I’m not sure I can attest to that! But it’s a nice fruity taste—cranberry and orange.

Lemon Zinger from Celestial Seasonings
92

I love this tea! It’s great in the morning. A little bit of sugar (or none at all) does the trick. The first bag of lemon zinger from a new box remains one of my most treasured tea experiences.

Vanilla Chai from Good Earth Teas
77

I really liked this tea—it’s sweeter and thicker than other vanilla chais I’ve tried. Let it steep for a long time (about 7 minutes) and add lots of sugar and soymilk. Delicious!

Yorkshire Tea from Taylors of Harrogate
100

Best black tea I’ve ever had! And the favorite of just about everyone I’ve ever made tea for. Super delicious with a couple spoons full of sugar and whole milk.
