1500 Tasting Notes
Having a rare and lovely huge mug of this as I catch up on Being Human (the US version). So comforting this tea, especially as I try and wind down (really early!) for the night. Here’s to hoping I actually sleep a good five hours straight. ;)
2.5 tsp in 20 oz.
Preparation
A surprisingly creamy night tea, similar to Lemon Chiffon but with orange built in there. I remember loving this when I first found it, in an extremely generous tea exchange on RedditGifts a few years back. It’s actually better than I recollect!
1.5 tsp in 12 oz.
Flavors: Cream, Lemon Zest, Orange Zest
Preparation
Overleaf this and prepare to die. Holy moly JustJames, now I know what you were referring to. Kept a tiny bit from OMGsrsly’s bag, understeeped, and yet… it’s all chili. Still delicious, and like drinking liquid fire.
Preparation
Properly leafed, this really does taste like baked coconut. Lovely, yet there’s something that’s sitting off with me. I have to wonder what it is, because it’s enough for me to put it in the swap pile for someone else to love.
1.5 tsp in 12 oz.
Flavors: Coconut, Cream
Preparation
Tried it again today, this time double bagging it and steeping it less. Much better – it tastes like a chai, for starters – however now I’m missing any sense of coconut. It’s an okay blend, and I’m sure I’m cool with sipping it down, however I will refrain from purchasing more.
Preparation
Gosh I love this tea. I wish I could pick out all the lovely flavors in it. Tulsi, definitely. Maybe something sweet and fruity, yet hard to place. A hint of licorice perhaps? Dunno. I just love it. A really unusual blend of flavors that I’m sipping way too fast.
1.5 tsp in 12oz.
Preparation
Odd floral note in here that tastes really artificial. Where is it coming from? I otherwise really like this, a nice sweet chai blend, the apricot is quite lovely, however this fake perfumey whatever-it-is ruins it for me.
1.5 tsp in 12 oz.
Flavors: Apricot, Cinnamon, Flowers, Peppercorn
