259 Tasting Notes

A confusing tea. Containing a blend of several black teas and several green teas (including matcha), I’ve never managed to brew a successful cup. If you heat the water enough to do justice to the black teas, the green teas turn bitter and taste scorched. If you keep the water cool enough for properly handling the green teas, you get weak black tea flavor. And then there’s the question of whether or not to add milk to the tea (which would soften the black tea but destroy the green tea). Why am I drinking this? Because it’s all I have with me here at the moment lol.

I’m glad to find a semi-local place to get this!

I use this to make sun tea with. Nice with a bit of mint or lemon. Sugar if you like (I don’t).

Just a drop of milk to soften the edges.

Having this with breakfast. A little brisk to wake the senses.

Burning midnight oil tonight, so something with a bit more strength to it is desired.

Heaven in a cup. That is all that needs to be said.
