MissLena12 drank Yunnan White Jasmine by Verdant Tea

My Verdant tea order finally came!!!! ECSTATIC!!! I wasn’t going to have a cup of caffeine tonight, but I couldn’t resist when my order showed up.

This tea is absolutely beautiful. It is so smooth, so light, so lovely. The jasmine is done just perfectly, not overly perfumed as in other varieties I have tried. Getting a sweet aftertaste in the back of my throat which I love!

Overall, I love this. So happy I got an oz of it! For my first verdant tea, I am SOLD! So excited to try the rest!

Bio

Hello all, I’m a university student finishing up my Electrical Engg degree this year (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it’s excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee!

I enjoy a variety of herbal, white, green, oolong and black teas. I am a bit sensitive to caffeine, but I find that in moderation I can still indulge in black teas and matcha. I’ve also dabbled with matcha and pu’erhs.

Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid all other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a wee bit, but oh well.

95+: Absolute favorite, will try to always have it in stock, and when I don’t I pine over it!
90-94: Awesome teas, will probably purchase again a few times
80-89: Very good tea, may restock at some point
70-79: happy to have tried and will gladly finish, but not restock
60-69: not horrible, but not the best, will finish if I have some though
50-59: not a favorite, probably will have a tough time finishing the bag
-50: yuck. I don’t want to have it ever again.

I am happy to say that my caffeine intolerance seems to be subsiding! This is allowing me to try a wider variety of teas :)
