coldbrew – 1 tsp, cold water + ice, 10 minutes
In 10 minutes, it steeps deep amber and smells of vanilla and rooibos

Wow, this really does well coldbrewed. The sweet rooibos and flavourful vanilla & bourbon are perfectly balanced. The rooibos isn’t minerally like hot rooibos sometimes is, but it is a little bit fruity with highlights of nectar/honey. Just all around delicious.

Coldbrew!

I expected this to be similar to the flavour of the tea brewed hot, but I found it very woody, herby, and nothing like key lime or graham cracker/pie. Nothing sweet or creamy, either. I recommend sticking to brewing this hot.

Coldbrew sipdown!

I don’t enjoy the base used in this tea, but the white chocolate + milk chocolate + creamy alcohol flavours. It is sweet like icing sugar, but the base is a bit bitter despite its malty mouthfeel. It’s a nice dessserty tea, but the base + artificial chemical taste is definitely off putting. The base also gets bitter and soapy if oversteeped.

drank Random Steepings by Various Artists

A rolled Chinese green tea with sweet, mellow strawberry flavour. Tasty cold brew – not astringent or bitter. The leaves are really beautiful in how they are full leaves loosely rolled. They unfurl into full leaves when steeped. Not much to say about the tea because it just tastes like a nice green with strawberry flavour. Simple, but satisfying.

Flavors: Fruity, Smooth, Strawberry, Sweet

Iced

This does sound good. Light green tea, strawberry flavour. Maybe a touch of astringency.

Bio

I am a biochem major hoping for a career in research genetics and evolutionary biology. I love science fiction and spend too much of my time reading comic books. I’m a passionate keeper of spiders, cacti, and exotic plants. I eat a vegan, plant-based diet for moral and environmental reasons (I mention this only because it is relevant to which flavoured teas I drink).

I drink mostly flavoured and low caffeine teas/tisanes, but I will try anything twice. As far as pure teas go, I gravitate towards whites, yellows, and jade oolongs. I’m always open for trades and sample sales/exchanges. Message me any time :)

My cupboard is mostly up to date. For a more comprehensive list, see my stash spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-HjWKR3um-xEnj6HC9vMvKXOAyj_bpW5u_2ixEC20-k/edit?usp=sharing
