drank Electric Lemon by DAVIDsTEA
709 tasting notes

This cup of tea has one job and one job only: to kick my cold’s BUTT. I thought (two weeks ago) that I was getting sick, but my body saved it all up for after the wedding/first day at the new job. So, electric lemon, please make it go away, or at least numb my throat to the pain it’s currently feeling. I hope that you and detox, with a small supporting crew can make me well, double quick.

As for the taste, I’m not the best judge today, so I’ll leave it where I last rated it. I could have steeped this longer, but the beau is sharing and he is leery of an over-strong ginger taste. Oh well!

Bio

I’ve been drinking loose tea since 2010 and my tastes have changed a lot over those years. For the last few, I’ve been a fan of unflavoured Chinese blacks and shu puerh. I still drink other things, but that’s where I am.

I live in a rural area with my husband, cat, and soon to be firstborn. I love tea, reading, doctor who, knitting, crosswords, board games, the marvel universe, and lots of other things.

I’m not often rating teas numerically any more but I want to leave this to explain my past ratings:
I try to only log teas once or twice because I drink a lot of the same ones repeatedly. My rating is based on my perception of the tea at first tasting and is adjusted if anything notable occurs in subsequent cups. I may also factor in the price and customer service but try to note that when I can.

81 – 100: These are great teas, I love them, regularly stock them or savour them as unique treats.
71 – 80: These are solid. I drink them, I like them, I may or may not keep them on hand regularly. This is still good stuff.
61 – 70: Just okay. I can drink it, but it doesn’t stand out to me. Might be lower quality, not to my taste, or outside my comfort zone.
41 – 60: Not likely to keep drinking…hoping hubby will enjoy!
0 – 40: No thank you, please. Take it away and don’t make me finish the cup.
