Black Forest Berry from Primatea
52

When I first smelled this tea, I thought it smelled very medicinal. It might be a combination of the floral notes and all of the fruit notes. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it.

After steeping, I still thought it smelled kind of medicinal.

I thought the berry flavor was going to be overpowering, and maybe it does take away from the taste of the tea slightly. When I take a sip, I definitely taste fruit and floral notes.

As I am writing this, I keep adjusting the rating slider. I am not sure how I feel about it. I like it, but I feel like I have had much better fruity black teas.

Tea: I am relatively new to tea, and joined Steepster to learn more about it. I am very open to suggestions, and enjoy reading everyone’s tasting notes. I think this community is awesome.

Me: I am a software developer working for a small company and absolutely love my job. Despite being a “computer guy”, I love the outdoors, and enjoy backpacking and camping. I also really enjoy philosophy, photography, reading, and music.

Ratings:
69 and lower: I probably would not buy this tea again. I might enjoy it, but I have had other teas that are much better.
70-79: I find this tea good, but have had better teas. I would gladly have another cup, but it probably wouldn’t be my first option.
80-89: This is a cup of tea that I really enjoy, and would buy again.
90-100: This is a cup of tea that I not only enjoy, but find something unique about it. This is something I would definitely order again.
