Darjeeling FTGFOP1 Phuguri from TeaGschwendner
78

Sometimes Darjeeling astringency is like paint thinner in your mouth. Other times it is like little twinkling stars. This tea is in the later category.

Himalayan Majestic from Teavana

Troika from Kusmi Tea
68

Really delicious, like all of the Kusmi teas that I have tried. These folks know how to flavor tea.

Hairy Crab Oolong from Dream About Tea
79

Deliciously peachy flavored oolong (there is no peach flavor added, the tea just naturally taste of peaches). Better than I remember!

Keemun Golden Buds from Rishi Tea

Interesting Keemun. The package label says “fresh pine” which is definitely there, but I am not used to it in a black tea! Need to spend more time with this.

Fire Ginseng from Rishi Tea
