drank Cascadia by The Tao of Tea
1975 tasting notes

A sipdown! (M: 5 Y: 92)

Cascadia. An area I would like to visit one day. But when? With whom? Let’s see if this tea broughts me there at least virtually.

OK, I don’t know what to expect… for some reason I am thinking about Douglas firs and another association is Douglas Fir tea by Juniper Ridge. But this tea contains juniper at least. And barley. That sounds good to me and suitable to Cascadia region.

If I remember right, I travelled through this region only virtually, no matter if I was train driver, truck driver or just looking at the maps and Street View. As I wrote, I hope to see it once with my own eyes and not on screen only.

Well, this tea, as it contains only two ingredients, tastes after those ingredients. Crushing juniper berries brought a piny twist to the, well roasted, barley. It was like drinking grain fields with pines on the horizon. The aroma is just like grain field. Harvest is coming in just a few days. Maybe the harvester just didn’t come yet today.

Now I want to visit Cascadia even more.

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
