Finally back from holiday which means that I’m reunited with my tea collection. On the way back though, I stocked up on Takibi so I can enjoy it year-round. Takibi is a flavored oolong from Lupicia. Takibi is a very seasonal tea and they usually only have it in stock in the winter time. It has a very subtle fruit flavor which is very refreshing.

I shared this with my club today because it’s currently my “freshest” tea (i.e. it was my most recent purchase). Everyone seemed to really like it =)

This is what I’ve been drinking from lunch to now. I had two homemade teabags of Takibi leftover from finals week (two weeks ago) so I needed to steep a bit longer but the taste is still good. This is definitely one of my favorite flavored teas.

Wanted something semi-strong and fruity.

A very subtle tea with a sweet flavor. It says that it is flavored with tropical fruits, but I have no idea which fruits those may be. It’s vaguely fruity, but more of an aftertaste. I’m not sure if I’d buy this again over other teas. It’s still pleasant, though.

to sum up my second tasting note: when cold, this tea is much fruitier.

I didn’t have time to finish drinking my cup of this hot yesterday night, so I stuck it in the fridge. Now I think this is way better as an iced tea. The fruity flavors stand out a lot more when it’s not hot, though there is still an odd sort of taste I haven’t figured out. It might be the type of oolong used? Unsure.
