4 Tasting Notes

Pu Erh Bold Leaf, Organic (No. 591) from SpecialTeas
73

Delicious tea… the first Pu Erh that I had ever tried, I first compared it to the taste of lake water when you fall while water-skiing, but that taste always brings back fond memories so not only is the tea delicious, it always makes me happy when I drink it.

Special Lung Ching (Dragon Well) from Ten Ren
66

My every day drinking tea. The owner of the Ten Ren shop on Eccles Ave. in San Francisco promised me that I would enjoy this tea and he was right. I find it has a cleaner taste than other types of Dragon Well tea that I have tried. Plus, the affordable price of this tea allows it to be a tea that you can enjoy throughout the day.

Green Tea from Argo Tea
67

For the affordable price, I was very impressed by this green tea. The matcha blended into it adds a bold flavor and brilliant color.

Organic Snow Peony 2010 from Red Blossom Tea Company
96

Fantastic white tea, definitely has a stronger almost green tea flavor, but is still a white with all of the added health benefits. The undertone is slightly floral and very slightly nutty. Oversteeping this tea will ruin it. I steep for 30 seconds on the first infusion, 45-1min on the second and then about 2 min on the third. I have continued using the leaves longer than this and just steeped for longer, but it does lose some flavor past three steeps.
