28 Tasting Notes

Damn Fine Holiday Blend from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
Peppermint Yerba Mate from Samovar
91

As part of the 4 Hour Work week pack of Yerba Mate, I’m trying out the Mate with Peppermint.
First sip and this tea made me smile – there’s something about the smell of peppermint that makes me smile – it’s so refreshing. The peppermint really cuts the haystack-like taste Mate naturally has. With the many benefits of mate paired with the peppermint flavor it’s going to be very difficult to not drink this everyday.

New tea! This is much better than Rishi’s Yunnan by far. I like that it’s not too sweet and not too earthy. It’s smooth and I noticed a little bit or froth form in my tea basket (didn’t make it to cup tho). This would be a good tea for those who aren’t into the punchier black teas A&D offer, I think.

Keemun Mao Feng from Rishi Tea
86

It’s still a favorite, could hold it’s own against Jakee Muntz.

Thomas Sampson from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
82

New to my tea collection, received Series 2 as a Christmas gift.

Keemun Mao Feng Black Tea (Keemun Mao Feng Hong Cha) from Jing Tea
93

Drinking this at Common Roots. This is great! The kind of Black tea I enjoy. I’m gonna be ordering this often now.

Ryokucha from Samovar
88

Awesome for breakfast. I’m running low on my sampler tin, show how much I like it. Must order more soon.

Earl Grey from Rishi Tea

Not the best Earl Grey I’ve had, but it’s a black tea and it’s what I need right now. Drinking it at Common Roots.

Ancient Golden Yunnan from Rishi Tea
75

Drinking this at Common Roots. Good black tea for a dreary Monday.

Masala Chai from Samovar

Cooking this up now. Makes the house smell amazing! I’ll be sure to edit this after I’ve tried tasting it. I predict it’s going to taste just as wonderful, if not better, than it smells.

Classic Raw Kombucha from G.T. Kombucha

Ryokucha from Samovar

Yes, again. Yes, again. It’s becoming a new habit

I got the Kevin Rose starter set for a gift. Trying this tea for the first time it smells like popcorn or a box or Quakers puffed rice. I enjoy the taste of the Matcha powder, almost frothy…in a way

Awake- Filterbag from Tazo
25

Brought some of this to work cause it’s really the only bagged tea I have left. It still, to me, doesn’t taste great; makes my tung all scratchy. When I get my first check, I’m buying some better tea.

Mango Ceylon from The Republic of Tea

Not sure what brand this is. But I’m steeping and about to drink a pot of Mango Ceylon tea at the Tea Garden in Minneapolis

Pu-erh Ginger from Rishi Tea

Nepal from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
