A tasty, creamy, sweet ripe. It has a typical savory-sweetness like cream of wheat, but there are substantial cream ale and vanilla bourbon cask notes that set this apart from other ripes. Very creamy and sweet – it has improved with a little age.

Unfortunately, this is no longer available on either YS site. However, I think this shows that you don’t have to break the bank to get really tasty stuff. Thanks to Scott for sourcing good product and offering it at incredible prices.

100 – I haven’t found the perfect tea yet!

92-95 – So good that I will purchase this tea again, guaranteed. Excellent flavor and value.

88-91 – A tea that I would consider purchasing again at some point. Great flavor and value.

85-87 – Tea that was worth the purchase and that I enjoyed drinking, although I probably won’t be purchasing it again any time soon. Flavor may have slight drawbacks, or the price might be a little expensive.

80-84 – A tea that has some good points, but falls a bit short on its price:quality ratio. Flavor is a bit mediocre.

No rating – I did not like this tea and would not drink it, given other options.
