Wow, back from Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in Golden Gate Park. It is really fun but walking around in the sun for 5 hours is kind of exhausting… I figured it would be nice to have some tea to revive me.

I haven’t had this in so long… the last time I did a tasting note on it was 2 years ago but I feel like I have had it more recently than that. It has kept well in the tin I was keeping it in. This is very floral and fresh, similar to a darjeeling but with a more intense flowery element. Very groovy tea to have after grooving to the music in the park!!

Who was your favorites at the fest?

I only went on Sunday this year. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Moonalice were both good.

Bio

My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.

Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta

95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around

94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase

89-80 Pretty good, above average

79-70 Acceptable

69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it

59-50 Ick

49 and below Nasty
