135 Tasting Notes

2011 "Golden Key" AAA+ Wuyi Mountain Oolong Tea 125g from China Cha Dao
93
Raspberry Honey Tea from Steeped About Tea
90

Slightly sour slightly sweet! I love it so much! Adding more honey!

Thanks Daisychubb, now send me those cookies you made with this!

Florence from Harney & Sons
95
Cherries Jubilee Bai Mu Dan from 52teas
74

I love white tea. Really love it. It’s my favesies, but I’m not rich enough to really stock up on a lot. Getting this Bai Mu Dan in the mail was terribly exciting! I really like this tea, but I can’t really taste the vanilla but the subtle cherry is nice. I wish the flavor was stronger. Compared to other whites I could take it or leave it :/

Exotica from DAVIDsTEA
71

This is a very complex tea. On the top there’s a strong lemon flavor that I think is almost cleaner like and not entirely pleasant. Under that there’s a nutty spicy note that calms that astringent lemon flavor, and under that there’s a spicy creamy flavor that leaves a nice after taste.

It’s a very interesting tea and was fun to drink. I’m not sure I’d buy it, but if it was offered to me I’d surely have another cup! :)

Thanks DAISYCHUBB

Peach Blackberry Crumble from 52teas
97

Brewed with my new IngenuiTEA! Let me tell you this is a whole new animal! There is Peach Blackberry Crisp in the fridge right now. It’s just that time of year!

Organic Genmaicha with Matcha from Den's Tea
81

Sipdown! Bye bye bubby! You were a good friend. I’m lucky that you’re sold close by and for not-so-much-money!

Adagio - ingenuiTEA from Teaware
97

It is in the mail. I can’t explain how excited I am.

Belgian Chocolate Rooibos from Steeped About Tea
79

Oh criminy jeebus. Thanks DaisyChubb for this fantastico tea!

She suggested I try it with cream and chocolate chips, so I figured I would hit the store. But before I did I hit the cupboard and found some traditional Aztec hot chocolate and sprinkled that in with the tea! Let me tell you, it’s perfect! It’s so creamy, bold and spicy!

Blazing Strawberries from DAVIDsTEA
90

WOW! Strawberries! A strong summery flavor that actually blazes over the tongue! I’ve never had a bamboo tea before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I need to have a second helping to really seal the deal on this one, and I think I’ll try it iced since everyone is just RAGING about it.

Big thanks to DaisyChubb for the sample!

Piña Colada Black Tea (Iced Tea Series) from 52teas
94

Hot brewed iced tea. I think with the watermelon I made it too concentrated, because using half of a package for a pitcher made this perfect!

Plantain Coconut Raw Green Bush Tea from The Republic of Tea
74
Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls from Teavana
90

Ashley is a goddess. I’ve had one other jasmine green tea and I’ve never had pearls. They’re so fun and rattle around in my strainer! Sweetened with german rock sugar. Very floral. Lingers in my mouth and the smell is heavenly. I’d say it’s a must try.

Watermelon Black Tea (Iced Tea Series) from 52teas
69

Backlogged from the weekend. THIS one I brewed right. It tastes like watermelon without being overpowering.

Drank it outside in the bright bright sun with my family. Mom loves it too!

Black Currant Rooibos from 52teas
84

I don’t think I’ve ever had Black Currant flavored anything before. It’s light and fruity smidge of spicy. Lightly sweetened.

Thanks Ashley!

Strawberry Zabaglione from 52teas
95

I don’t know what a zaga-bologna is, but I want one.
Is it just strawberries and cream?

I want a peach zabbagooga IRL.

This tea is sweet and creamy! Strawberry isn’t overpowering. I’m so terrible, sitting on my couch in the AC drinking hot tea and browsing on my laptop. Spoiled rotten? Totally, but blame it on ASHLEY! She’s the one who gave me the sample!

Apple Green Tea from Vital Tea Leaf
71

Iced overnight, got a bit bitter but it’s nothing a splenda won’t fix.

Caramel Vanilla Chai from 52teas
42
Vanilla Apricot White from Tazo
68

Really yummy iced! Finally got a REAL package of this tea after the previous fiasco. When I brewed a cup hot it was too light for me to taste any of the vanilla or the apricot. Now that it’s been cold brewed I can taste the apricot, but still no vanilla. It’s enjoyable, but doesn’t do what it “says on the tin” :)

Caramel Vanilla Chai from 52teas
42

This tea is SPICY and smooth. You can really taste the pepper and the ginger. It’s a fantastic favorite. Cream and sugar of course.

It lingers on the back of my tongue and makes me happy. Not all chai teas are created equal! I’ve never actually made a chai the traditional way. If I had to choose one, it’s this!

I’ll let you know!

Peach Blackberry Crumble from 52teas
97
Perfectly Protein Vanilla Chai Tea from Bolthouse Farms
97
Sheri's Blend from 52teas
93

This is SO bomb. I love you rooibos. You never get bitter. At first, I wasn’t sure about your flava, but you pair nicely with everything! And guess what, you’ve never turned bitter on me!

This sample came with the iced teas I purchased. Strong and syrupy. Sweet and lightly spiced.

Coconut Cheesecake Honeybush from 52teas
92

Iced iced iced! With cream and sugar! At work, during what must be a ghost holiday, because the crazies are especially crazy tonight!

Thank you tea gods.
