919 King's Tea from Ten Ren

Dragonwell from Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
88
Large Leaf Yellow - Organic from Nothing But Tea
86

This is really good, but the name and image are deceiving. The leaves are not large.. in fact, there is a really large amount of fanning and broken leaves in it.

Honu Mate from Chi of Tea
81

I seemed to like this more than the others who tasted it.
There wasn’t a strong flavor, but it did not taste watery. I could find myself really downing this one if need be – sometimes teas don’t taste so well in big gulps =P
There wasn’t a huge rooibos flavor either, which was good.

Bai Lin Gong Fu from JK Tea Shop

This was an amazing golden monkey. Too bad I can’t figure out if it’s on their website or not =( =( (it was a free sample!)

Xue Lan Xiang (Snow Orchid) Dan Cong Oolong 2009 from Seven Cups
91
Nuit à Versailles from Dammann Freres
82

Tastes like a typical flavored green tea. It was very pleasant, but not anything totally different from what I’ve had before. I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy this from France =P

Mango Green Tea from Bar Harbor Tea Company
86

I only have a teeny bit more left =( I’ll have to order more.. This tastes a lot better than other flavored green teas I’ve had. More memorable.

Profile

Bio

My favorite teas are high mountain, 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
Currently attending KGI (Keck Graduate Institute) for a Master of Bioscience

I love J-R&B and J-Urban and used to do a radio show on WOZQ Northampton, MA
I play both WoW (Airine on Executus) and LoL (Airine)

Location

Upland, CA / Rockville, MD
