drank Bon Bon by ESP Emporium

Candy in liquid form.
It’s very similar to American Tea Room’s Choco*Late except it’s more robust and I think I enjoy it slightly more – however, the downside is that it has caffeine and ATR’s doesn’t.

drank Ginseng Berry by ESP Emporium

I ordered this because a. I love green tea blends and b. I’ve had ginseng oolong tea and totally love it.
This tea doesn’t live up to my expectations but I still like it – maybe it’s because it doesn’t have the licorice added like the other ginseng blends I’ve had. It’s a very mellow and calming tea, and the green tea is kind of off in the background.

drank Peachberry Jasmine Sutra by Teavana

Im finally at school with all my teas! This tea is from LauraR’s massive tea purge that I got in the mail today =)
I saw this as it was steeping going red and I’m thinking, god damn it what’s in here that’s doing this. Answer: hibiscus. And of course that’s all I taste when I sipped it. The aftertaste was VERY pleasant though and I could actually taste some peach and jasmine, but I don’t know why the hell they put hibiscus in it.. sigh. There goes a potentially super awesome tea.

This is a perfect cup of chai.
Everything balances out so nicely. The spices are perfect, and the lemongrass goes really well with the genmaicha.

Profile

Bio

My favorite teas are Taiwan high mountain, Anxi, Wuyi, and dancong oolongs. I also need my deep steamed sencha every now and then. I’m not totally into flavoreds but I’m always up for interesting flavors (like ATR’s Nirvana and Toasted Fig). My favorite natural flavors are roasted and floral.

I have a BA in Biochemistry from Smith College with a minor in Japanese. I have a Masters of Bioscience from Keck Graduate Institute in Claremont, CA.

I love J-R&B and J-Urban and used to do a radio show on WOZQ Northampton, MA. I also play WoW (Aireene on Proudmoore).
