761 tasting notes

Shae sent me some of this because it is on my wish list and something that she ordered…only she didn’t realize my wish list includes things I want to reorder at some point, and this is one of them. Only I have not had any in simply AGES, so it was refreshing to be able to try some again at long last, and yep, it’s still a pretty fantastic tea, albeit a little more artificial tasting than I remember it being…either it has been rebounded/reformulated or my taste buds have changed to some of their teas. I do still really like this one, and I should keep like 25-50g on hand, as it is a nice evening tea since it is caffeine free, and especially comforting at this time of year when we are being blasted with gusty winds and rain…

Many thanks again to Shae for sharing this with me and reminding me how much I like it.

I generally like a lot of tea. I do find I have a preference for flavored over unflavoured, but I do love a good straight tea as well.

Likes are too hard, since there are a lot. Dislikes are easier, so here they are…

Hibiscus. Blech. I can tolerate a little, depending on the brew, like Berry Good from Davids and Ruby Pie from Butiki…but in general, it’s too tart and too strong for me.

Licorice. Anything that remotely resembles licorice is out too, so that includes fennel and anise. Yuck, yuck, yuck.

Florals. I’m cool with petals in the tea to make them look pretty (except rose), and I’m cool with teas like oolongs having a floral note, but strong florals can give me migraines. Rose and jasmine are the biggest offenders. This is one where it can vary on the blend, as I can handle Teavivre’s Peach Jasmine Dragon Pearl tea because there is very little jasmine actually detectable in it.

Rooibos is hit or miss. I can do some, but not others. I handle green better than red, and honeybush better than rooibos.

My ratings don’t have a particular scale or method, and may on occasion contradict themselves, but I’m honestly not fussed about that. Sometimes I don’t even rate at all.

Um, I have an extensive wishlist. It is both a list of things I want to get again, and things I want to try. If you are sending me something, and you want to know which is which, I’ll tell you via PM.

Yes, I do trades…usually on request though. See something you want to try in my cupboard? Just shoot me a message and I’ll see what I can do!

Uh, guess that’s it.
