1453 Tasting Notes

Decaf Earl Grey from Adagio Teas
95
African Pride Tea from Afri Tea and Coffee Blenders (1963) Ltd

Assam Tarajulie FBOP from Culinary Teas
75

I’m drinking this in the afternoon. It’s really gloomy, cold, and wet outside, and this is the perfect cup for this weather! Woke up my senses! It has a nice malty flavor, and it tastes great with a dash of milk and sugar. The color was a deep red. This exactly how I want my Assam to be.

Rhubarb Green from Adagio Teas
75

Made this one iced. So creamy! Something about the rhubarb! I’ve never even tried rhubarb so I can’t compare it. I need to search for some rhubarb pie!

Mate Lemon from Numi Organic Tea
75

In addition to Numi’s Moroccan Mint, this has become one of my favorite Numi teas that I’ve tried! The smell is delicious. Citrusy but not acidic. The Mate and green tea was balanced well with the lemon. This tea blend put me in high spirits. Also, I infused the sample twice. I would definitely purchase this tea.

Lichee from Red and Green Company
55
West Cape Chai from Rishi Tea
90
Peppermint Rooibos from Rishi Tea
100
Rooibos Zanzibar Spice from The Zen Shop
91
Pi Lo Chun from Adagio Teas
54

Steeped for 2.5 minutes and drank it this afternoon. A nice, smooth, mild green tea.

African Pride Tea from Afri Tea and Coffee Blenders (1963) Ltd
95
White Nectar Osmanthus Spring from Numi Organic Tea
75

This one was pretty tasty. I kept the teabag in there the whole time, and it never got bitter. The taste was nice and slightly sweet and medium (not so light and not so strong). It is floral but not overly so.

Green Needle from Adagio Teas
75

I mixed this with the lemon grass. I like this green tea, but I don’t reach for it often enough to buy it again. Great for blends though.

Lemon Grass from Adagio Teas
84

Feel a little cold coming on so I’m drinking this to relieve my sinuses…

Apricot Green from Adagio Teas
75

I made this by cold brewing it! Tastes delicious iced, especially on a warm day. The scent is light, but I can still smell the apricot.

Lichee from Red and Green Company
55

I’m not sure if the one I had was old, but the lichee didn’t show through. I may have gotten a slight taste of it, but the black tea tastes wonderful and overpowers the lichee. I don’t really smell lichee when the leaves were dry either. I first tried this alone then added milk and sugar. It tastes good either way :)

Decaf Earl Grey from Adagio Teas
95
Keemun Golden Buds from Rishi Tea
75
Keemun Golden Buds from Rishi Tea
75

This is a very different black tea than what I’m used to drinking. Something about the taste makes it stand out. Maybe it tastes like nutty (maybe like chestnut). Maybe it is the “fresh pine” note it is supposed to have. I don’t reach for this very often, so I don’t think I’ll be repurchasing this.

Red Mellow Bush Rooibos from Numi Organic Tea
25

Blended this iced with Rishi Blueberry Rooibos, Adagio Pi Lo Chun, Mighty Leaf Organic Spring Jasmine, Numi Rooibos. I definitely added this to use up the last bag I had since it doesn’t taste good alone IMO.

Organic Spring Jasmine from Mighty Leaf Tea
75

Blended this iced with Rishi Blueberry Rooibos, Adagio Pi Lo Chun, Mighty Leaf Organic Spring Jasmine, Numi Rooibos. I love Jasmine + lemon grass combo and thought it would be good to add just a little bit into the iced mixture.

Pi Lo Chun from Adagio Teas
54

Blended this iced with Rishi Blueberry Rooibos, Adagio Pi Lo Chun, Mighty Leaf Organic Spring Jasmine, Numi Rooibos. I don’t know if I’m a fan of this tea alone, so I used it in the blend to just use it up somehow.

Blueberry Rooibos from Rishi Tea
95

Blended this iced with Rishi Blueberry Rooibos, Adagio Pi Lo Chun, Mighty Leaf Organic Spring Jasmine, Numi Rooibos. I tend to drink this alone, but it tastes great iced, especially on a really warm day like today.

Lemon Grass from Adagio Teas
84

Blended this iced with Rishi Blueberry Rooibos, Adagio Pi Lo Chun, Mighty Leaf Organic Spring Jasmine, Numi Rooibos. I love the fruity taste to the blend. I use lemon grass to blend with other teas… sometimes I drink it alone. I feel like it clears up my throat and has a nice lemon zing to it.
