1739 Tasting Notes

Chelsea's Chocolate Banana Rooibos from 52teas
66
Malted ChocoMaté from 52teas
83

I thought I’d be clever and try to make “chocolate covered bacon” tea by brewing about 1 1/3 Tbsp f this with 2/3 tbsp Maple bacon. All I got was a muddled mess of flavors, which did not improve with chilling.

I’ll leave the tea blending to the experts (Frank)!

Lady Grey from Twinings
77

Drinking it black this fine Monday morning, with a cinnamon roll on the side…

Get Some Zzz's - No. 5 (Wellness Collection) from The Republic of Tea
60
Watermelon Mint from Rooibee Red Tea
70
White Chocolate Almond Mate from Blue Raven Tea
69
Tea Pear from Ito En

As with their “Tea Apple,” I found this one to be juicy, natural tasting. However, the tea is definitely secondary to the pear flavor. Very refreshing, and worth buying a bottle to try, but not something I would specifically seek out in the future.

Green Tea from Luzianne
55
Malted Genmaicha from 52teas
48
Green Tea Strawberry Vanilla from Argo Tea

Water was too hot, I ruined what would have been a good cup of tea. sigh will try again when I can give it better attention.

Cran-Raspberry Black from Zoomdweebie's Tea Bar
68

I wanted a breakfast tea with a hint of sweetness, and this did the trick! A short steeping and some sugar (no milk) kept it light.

Sweet Coconut Thai Chai from Celestial Seasonings
36

I am going to use up the rest of this (about 10-12 bags) to try to make Thai Iced Tea for a potluck tonight, using this recipe as a guide: http://www.arborteas.com/teablog/tea-preparation/how-to-make-thai-tea-aka-thai-iced-tea-a-thai-tea-recipe-from-arbor-teas/

Will report on the results. Wish me luck!

Monk's Blend from Metropolitan Tea Company

last serving of this, with milk and sugar because I’m feeling contrary this morning (yesterday I liked it best iced with sugar only).

Monk's Blend from Metropolitan Tea Company

Fell asleep late, overslept, and am still having trouble feeling alert late this rainy morning. It is time for caffeine. (Actually I should have had some hours ago!)

Since I just tried Paris with sugar and no milk last week, and found it surprisingly pleasant, I decided to do the same with Monk’s Blend.

Tea Apple from Ito En

HisGirlOona is right: this tastes surprisingly like biting into a juicy red apple! They somehow bottled that “crisp” taste that bottled apple juice never seems to capture.

I can’t say much for the tea itself because I was too wowed by the apple. Not an everyday drink for me, but I’m glad I tried it. It was refreshing and would certainly fulfill an apple craving if you don’t have an apple handy!

Paris from Harney & Sons
78
Blue Eyes from McNulty's
Raspberry Herbal Iced from Harney & Sons
Green Tea from Luzianne
55
Lime & Mint Black Tea from New Leaf Brands
Last Mango in Paris from Steeped Tea

I would have guessed mango, rooibos, hibiscus and mint as the ingredients, so I was pretty close. This is a juicy and enjoyable tisane, and would surely be great iced!

White Tea - Blueberry Pear from wawa
Lipton Black Tea from Lipton
26
Green Tea with Ginseng & Honey from Arizona
