1453 Tasting Notes

R29 Ceylon from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea

Cochin Masala Chai from Culinary Teas
95

This is a new favorite for me! I love the Ceylon black tea base here. I didn’t have any milk but added some sugar to this strong chai blend. I love this! The flavors are natural.

Raspberry Green from Adagio Teas
73

backlog:

I had this yesterday afternoon. I brewed this lightly and it was a light yellow/green color. The dragonwell leaves are prominent in this tea. The raspberry didn’t really taste like raspberries. It was more like rhubarb, which I love. This is a refreshing cuppa tea with creamy rhubarb/berry notes. Lovely afternoon tea.

Backlog:

Sipdown! I am happy to be done with this tea. For some reason, the sample tasted a lot better than this actual tin of Kashmiri Chai. It would have been better without that super overpowering cinnamon oil!

Wow… this is another sipdown. A great tea during its long course in my cupboard! Creamy vanilla with some hint of nuts. Delicious!

Summer Passion from Adagio Teas
89

Sipdown! After all this time, I don’t think I have ever tried cold brewing this until this week. WOW! It is nice, sweet, and fruity! The flavors really stand out when cold-brewed. Great tea and its also refreshing! I bought this time and time again, but this time I think I won’t be purchasing this again. I have too many teas _ and I prefer cold brewed fruit herbal blends.

This is PERFECT.

It is 60 degrees out. It is finally warm out, and tonight is my last night of night shift (perhaps EVER!!!). I am so excited to go to work and get this night done. My husband came back from visiting his family yesterday, so I was and still am so happy that he is back. I missed him so much. So, a lot of good things going on so far.

I brewed this up, and my husband left a package for me on the table. It was the Traveling Tea Box B!!! So excited! I took pictures right away, so I should have them posted up very soon.

Anyhow, this tea is perfect for today. I love coconut and I love oolong. This stuff is real. The bottom of my mug was a little bitter, but the beginning was delicious. I will try to brew this cold next time.

I have 2 bags of this tea left. I am also trying to drink this tea up. I am not a fan of this tea.

Kashmiri Chai from Golden Moon Tea
54

At this point I am just drinking this to finish it up. I am not a fqn of cinnamon oil. It is too strong and just overpowers the rest of this chai blend.

Needed a strong black tea before my night shift! This was perfect mixed with sugar and milk.

R29 Ceylon from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
94

I love Assam and Ceylon teas so naturally this one was a winner for me! I love the packaging. The small painter’s tin is original. When I opened the tin, it was a no-brainer that this one was a nice smelling Ceylon. It smelled malty and warm with fruitiness to it.

The brew was a nice dark amber. This is a bold tea that can be tampered with to make it more or less bold. Upon my first sip, it wasn’t very bitter, but I wanted some milk with my tea. I’ve been drinking cups of milk these days! I can taste the bread-y, malt flavors with fruit undertones. It makes me happy to sip this cup! The milk didn’t really bring out any flavors but it did make it less bitter. Good tea overall! Now I am off to do my night shift!

Pina Colada Honeybush from 52teas

Wah I just made this iced overnight via the cold-brew method.

I just gulped down 2 cups of this. This tastes absolutely amazing cold, and there is no guilt with it too, besides the fact that I am out of this excellent blend! The weather is warming up, and this is perfect. I imagine myself sitting under an umbrella by the beach sipping on pina coladas. This is so refreshing and tastes like pineapple and coconut. The flavors come out very well when this is cold.

Please Frank! I hope you can make more of this for the summer!

I can’t believe I am all out of this one! This was a really good summery herbal blend. I made this hot last night and had another batch in the fridge cold-brewing til this morning. Delicious! I love herbals because I don’t need to use sugar in them. This herbal has slices of coconut in it, which I love. Good tea overall. I gulped it down :)
