6686 Tasting Notes
This smells wonderful! True Blue! The coloring is a typical black tea. After steeping you can still smell the blueberries and black tea blend. The taste is wondrous! How BERRY Wonderful! I bought as a sample but would certainly consider buying a large quantity next time! YUM!
tasting the mint and chamomile mix today more than the rest of the ingredients. Pretty Good Cup.
Needed something Minty Fresh this morning but didn’t want straight Peppermint and was looking for a GREEN Tea. This did the job. YAY
LOVE the way this one smells!!! The color is a dark black Tea Color. It’s a nice Black Tea taste with Apricot highlights but not over the top fruity. I like it!
Very full flavor today! Still extreme aroma. Still enjoy the blend!
Drastically Oversteeped but still a great cup. If you oversteep by mistake – still drink it – it’s quite nice!!!!
Equal parts Infusion Tea Plum Oolong (Resteep – weak) and Teavana Earl Grey. ICED
NICE!
Backlogging
Backlogging from last night. Oversteeped – still enjoyed!
I think this one is officially on my list of favorite Adagio Teas and since Adagio has so many good ones it takes a lot to be on my list of TOP Adagios! :) First steep of the day! LOVE it! Still trying to get the portion figured out. You don’t need much at all because it expands like no other Loose Leaf I have seen before. I have seen tightly bunched or rolled Loose Leaf ones before but this is beyond art! What an awesome product, indeed!
Average. That’s about it. An Average cuppa. Tasty but not strong. But it’s not bad either – therefore I give it a thumbs up but not by much. It doesn’t really stand out in anyway.
I love the smell of the Cinnamon prior to steeping and I think it would be ok if the taste wasn’t a sweet cinnamon…almost like a Cinnamon Red Hot Candy. If it were just Cinnamon and not sweet I might give it a neutral. I’m afraid I am not able to handle this one like I first thought. I hate to give it a thumbs down but I’m not sure what else to do. Sorry.
Refreshing. Natural Sweetness. Delightful, indeed. I got this as a free sample/gift with my order last time and LOVED it!!!! Wonderful!
Oh I how I LOVE Minty things! This was no exception. Very Simply Put…MINT. LOVE IT. I must say it wasn’t as hardcore as the Rishi one I have tried in the past but I do love this cuppa
This smells and tastes CHOCOLATE without being ‘too much’. What a delightful cuppa. Nice blend. Nice treat. I agree with the previous comment…oversteeping it doesn’t damage it…incase you choose to or do it by mistake. ENJOY!
The color is dark. The scent is plentiful prior to steeping. The Vanilla aroma is still present after the steep but not as intense. The taste is more Ceylon than Vanilla which in my book is good. If you are looking for an overpowering vanilla flavor this is not it but I think it blends well for a good flavored black tea.
Finally got some of this! What an interesting and creative cup! The aroma is beautiful! Very Lovely! Even after steeping it’s a nice floral/juicy smell! It’s VERY Dark black tea for color. It’s a drier citrus taste but doesn’t have an aftertaste which some Earl Grey’s do…I like that. I really like this cuppa!
I was going to drink this yesterday…but forgot. I saw that rkalajian commented about it and remembered to finally try it for myself. Just got it last week! It sounded refreshing via the description. I agree with rkalajian’s comment about the pre-steep loose leaf smell – Good God – not pleasant at all – stings the nostrils! While steeping I noticed the aroma morph into something different…almost like that of a hair salon or something. The coloring is true to a white tea. The longer you steep the more floral or blossomy it smells like. I’m steeping it now…trying to be patient for the full 7 minutes. After steeping the scent of the liquid in the cup has very little scent. You can taste both the White Tea as well as the Cucumber. It’s alright. Thank God the smell toned itself out! It’s refreshing as you sip but leaves a semi-sweet aftertaste. Glad I bought it to try. It’s not my fave but I will still give it a thumbs up because it’s drinkable and creative.
I usually type these reviews as I am steeping and tasting unless marked backlogging. I am steeping right now this cup of English Breakfast. I am somewhat amazed that there are 6 tastes but only 1 comment with feedback. Anyhow…on to my 2 cents worth…While steeping I find this to smell a little different from other English Breakfast Teas I have tried before. It’s more of a Woody smell than I expected. The color is a tad lighter in color than some black teas…but still noticeably black tea. After steeping it’s a pale black tea smell. The taste is a bit more mellow than I was anticipating. It’s ok. I will probably oversteep next time. It has a slight smoky flavor but more sweet towards the end of the sip.
Winding Down for the evening. Crafting. Reflecting. Enjoying a nice creative cuppa!
Equal parts Infusion Tea Plum Oolong (Resteep – weak) and Teavana Earl Grey. You can taste the Earl Grey with hints of oolong and plum. It blends nicely. ICED is NICE. YAY!
Onto the 3-steep now. Starting to smell like vegetables. Still a great cup! Kind of tasting a hint of frozen peas type of aftertaste. Interesting but good.
Went for the suggested Resteep just to see what happened. Awesome! Certainly a Resteep worthy Loose Leaf! Excellent! Still an earthy/mossy aroma. Floral type taste. But also like a pure water type of refreshing!
A first smell after the first steep it’s very earthy smelling. I think I oversteeped. The leaves expand quite a bit more than I first thought they would. Coloring is more of a white looking tea. Based on the first steep smell I was a little afraid of the taste BUT the first sip was totally unexpected!!!! It’s a soothing yet thirst quenching blend that is a bit sweet but flowery to taste. What a DELIGHT! I like it A LOT and A LOT MORE than I thought I would! Very, Very nice!
