15978 Tasting Notes
I asked for a cup of this yesterday while at adagio…not sure what possessed me besides being a sucker for most things “vanilla.” I think it helped that it’s a dark oolong and not a green one….it just smelled so lovely.
And you know what? I liked it. Me! An adagio non herbal tea that I liked…. So much so that I nearly bought some and even this morning, I’m contemplating it….though I’m for sure running out of room in my suitcase to get things back as a carry on…
final verdict on this one now that it’s a sipdown? Lovely taste but with an astringency to it that makes it good for me , as a morning tea. I’ll need to have a few more of my other teas before deciding on a final breakfast sort of tea but this one is pretty good :)
I’ve had more to drink but this is all i have time to track at…hopping on a plane in a few hours. Final count before leaving: 95 let’s see what the damage is when i get home haha
I’ve had this a few time over the past couple of days but haven’t had time to log things. Since it’s my last cup, i figured i should at least get something in here :) On the whole, i’ve rather enjoyed this one – preferring it to the marangi estate assam that i also picked up from norbu. Mostly, i’m just left wanting to try a whole lot more teas from norbu :) thanks again NoFarS for introducing me to them!
Do you have any of the Pudina Chai or the Jungpana Imperial Gold? If not and you want to try them, PM me and I’d be happy to share some. I have TONS of the Jungpana… :)
Norbu has some good stuff!
Nicole….. I will try to remember to do that, I don’t think I’ve tried either but want to check and iPad is not fear for doing that..
:) You are very welcome! I love being an enabler :)
sample sipdown! still doing well with 1 sipdown a day this week. I enjoyed my few cups of this, but i’m good with just that. good, but not good enough to pick up again :)
Final Count: 96
Wow, 96?! That’s fantastic! I’m jealous, ha ha.
it’s been a looooong journe down from 300+
WOW!! Great Job!!! Taking inspiration….
I’m at 131 and I’ve only been on here for two months. Oops? >>
just remember dex… it’s a marathon…i was up and down and up and down…
cameron – not oops…typical hahahaha i totally did the same thing… then it was omg! 100+ teas! then… whaaat! 200+ ! then holy mother crap gd it…345+ too much! and so i started my walk back down the hill lol
Well I don’t have any orders planned at the moment, and most of my stuff is samples, so I should be able to get the number down fairly quickly. :)
How long has it taking you to get to 96? Me, I think it would take a really long time…like about a year or so.
