drank Caramel Pumpkin Cheesecake by 52teas
15767 tasting notes

Oh yeah BABY! Frank reblended this so now I can drink the stash I have in my cuboard instead of hoarding it. I bought 2 bags (first time ever for me) of this so that I’ll have lots to have around for a while. There’s just something about this blend that I love more than ANYof the other cheesecale blends that he’s had. It’s MUCH better than the caramel Cheesecake he did. oh happy day!!

I just noticed several re-blends on the site. I am holding out until he puts up the new blend before buying. However fearing I may miss out entirly on those I want!

Autistic Goblin

I missed the blueberry struesal but caught the last marshmallow genmaicha.

Sil

I don’t know what you’re talking about Helena lol and yeah. I’d rather pay an extra buck and make sure i get the few that i wanted, than wait for the reblend to package it all up. heh

TeaBrat

I’m bummed that I missed the marshmallow genmaicha!

Sil

Amy – I think at this rate it’ll have to come back heh

drank Assam Gold by The Tea Merchant
15767 tasting notes

First cup of the morning! Once again thanks to the Tea Merchant for their generous sample! This is a nice cup for the morning. I was inspired by a comment made by kittena yesterday so I actually have a smoothie in a water bottle and two tea mugs full of tea lol. YAY for drinking it up in the morning! Especially nice since it’s a cool (but still nice) wet, rainy dark morning here in toronto.

This assam has a toasty warm flavourful taste this morning. A bit like a warm hug on a cold day, cuddled under the blankets listening to the rain patter on the windows.

Kittenna

What did I say?!

Sil

Uh something about multiple travel mugs for the lab that doesn’t have your office. Heh.

Kittenna

Ohhhh hahahahahaha :D

Steep steer was down! Oh how I missed you all lol

Sip down of this one today and while I enjoyed it, it’s not my favourite.

Operation Sipdown is in full effect! I’m trying to get through as many of the teas that I can before December hits, as I forsee christmas tea purchases in my future. I’ve managed to sort through my cupboard this weekend and now I have a pile of teas that are older or close to being finished that I can work on over the next few weeks :)

I still enjoy this tea as an every day sort of tea. It’s got a bit of flavoring without being overpowering so I won’t get tired of it.

I did a «clean up» myself this summer, or so I thought! For some strange reasons, I forgot that clean ups work only if you don’t order new stuff a zillion times after you did it! Now I’m back to square one, damn it!

Sil

Oh i’ve got three incoming orders plus the travelling tea box and a christmas swap! haha BUT at least i have a good idea of what I need to drink first…

drank Caramel 50/50 Matcha by Matcha Outlet
15767 tasting notes

I’ve been adding splashes of this to my other matchasmoothies, so this morning I opted for a purely caramel smoothie! I’d almost forgotten how wonderful the caramel tastes on it’s own. I really do enjoy the 50/50 base though i’d be curious as well to see how a white base or entirely black base would fair. I’ve ordered a re-stock of this as well since it appears that I’m starting to run low again on this one. :)

Cold brewed this last night and tried to drink it this morning. I’m not sure if I just brewed it too strong, but the cold brew bought out more of the flavours i didn’t like. I’m going to send the rest of this off to a good home I think since I don’t appear to enjoy it as much hot brewed, and cold is off my list entirely.

drank Grapefruit Dragon by Butiki Teas
15767 tasting notes

Still no score on this one since I’m waiting on that order to arrive from Stacy. I broke down this evening and had a bit more of the sample sht sent me with the other base. I’m still trying not to drink it so that I can do a taste comparision when my order gets here…sooon… sigh Still i do love this grapefruit tea. It’s one of the few flavours that my other half says I was stalking stacy about. Whether he’s right on that count is another story but i’m happy it’s hear and it’s MINE! :)

Butiki Teas

Hasn’t arrived yet? Geez. Hopefully, it will make it there soon.

Butiki Teas

Perhaps a little bit of stalking was involved. Hahahah.

Sil

I’m guessing it’ll show up this week. Usually takes 10 ish business days. I’m patient. I counted my teas today lol

drank Mango Lassi by Butiki Teas
15767 tasting notes

Finally got around to cold brewing this one and its delicious! I added a bit of honey to bring out the sweetness just a bit and it is fantastic! I think this will be wonderful when summer rolls around again as a cold brew. Really digging the way the mango pops as a cold brew with the little bit of sweetener.

Kittenna

This one has just never worked for me…

Bio

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
