49 Tasting Notes

Earl Grey Goût Russe from Dammann Freres
76

No doubt about it. Today requires a fabulous Earl Grey. And this is a fabulous Earl Grey.

Silver Tips White Tea from Teapigs
73

Another day, another lovely cup of tea. There’s no “I” in tea, but there’s a lot of tea in it!

Silver Tips White Tea from Teapigs
73

Needless to say, any tea by a company that calls themselves “TeaPig” can’t be less than absolutely fabulous. And Silver Tips White Tea lives up to the TeaPig standards!! I had a cup today! So lovely! Will have to have another cup tomorrow!

Ti Kwan Yin from Peet's Coffee & Tea
76

Tea tea tea! Ti Quan Yin! Tea tea tea! I should take some of this to work — I drink more tea there! Yay tea, Ti Quan Yin!

Earl Grey Goût Russe from Dammann Freres
76

Oops, steeped it a little overlong, but it’s still tasty. Nom.

Assam TGFOP, No. 30 from Harrods
67

I kind of want black tea. But I also kind of want to sleep tonight. Surely it’s early enough that I’ll be ok. Harrod’s Assam FTW!

RaJini Blend from Miro Tea
60

Oh no! My last cup of RaJini! I think I might have to make a trip to the tea store! Lovely lovely tea!

Madagascar Vanilla Red from Celestial Seasonings
63
Earl Grey Goût Russe from Dammann Freres
76

Should probably not be drinking a black tea, but an earl grey on this overcast marine morning is irresistible.

Genmaicha from Choice Organic Teas
64

Another chilly grey marine-aired PNW morning. Genmaicha FTW!

Madagascar Vanilla Red from Celestial Seasonings

Green Tea Tropical from Mighty Leaf Tea
87

Oh dear, on my last cup of this finally. I will have to get some more. It’s a lovely, productive cuppa…

Earl Grey Goût Russe from Dammann Freres
76

Oh, Earl Grey, how I love you. It’s a nice partially sunny day outside, but it’s foggy and cold and dreary in my head, but with you everything is cozy. And maybe in a bit I’ll wake up a little.

Dragonwell from Unknown
69

About to start in on my second cup of dragonwell for the day. So green and lovely, just like all the plants outside where I’d rather be than inside working…

RaJini Blend from Miro Tea
60

Friday — a rainy dreary Friday. That requires a lovely tea. With caffeine. OM NOM NOM.

Assam TGFOP, No. 30 from Harrods
67

It’s a dreary, rainy, cold, damp, sleepy day in Seattle and I need a cuppa. Mmmmm.

Chai Spice Black Tea from Stash Tea Company

Have had an iced chai craving lately. This isn’t iced, but it is chai. Hopefully I don’t regret this as I’m increasingly sensitive to caffeine… but chai is so tasty.

Genmaicha from Choice Organic Teas
64

Need nice warm comfort food tea and genmaicha fits the bill today!

Dragonwell from Unknown
69

Mmm. After a cherry cobbler this has a distantly smoky taste, not gunpowder smoky, just… distant & lazy. Nice, big round, forest-y (but not pine-y) green today.

Genmaicha from Choice Organic Teas

Alexandria from TWG Tea Company
59

Nice Moroccan mint-y sort of tea. Can’t really taste the vanilla, but the balance of green and mint is very pleasant.

French Earl Grey from TWG Tea Company
58
Dragonwell from Unknown
69

It looks like dragonwell, it tastes like a dragonwell, but until I can have a work friend translate the tin (hopefully it’s Chinese on it!), I won’t know for sure. We’re going to roll with dragonwell for the moment though. A friend brought it and some other lovely teas back for me from Singapore. It’s been a long time since I picked up dragonwell, I don’t know why, because I do really enjoy it. Mmmm. Dragonwell!
