536 tasting notes

Sipdown. This is one of the older teas in my cupboard. Bought it in 2015 on a trip to Colorado to see my brother, I don’t think I really knew what I was purchasing. It was pretty early on in my loose leaf tea journey.
Pretty green & vegetal tasting with a little bit of sweetness. It feels like there’s a lot of movement with this tea as I’m drinking it. Creamy towards end of the sip. I like the end, but the vegetal flavor kills it for me. Just not a fan of those.

Flavors: Creamy, Green, Sweet, Vegetal

Bio

I started my tea journey with Stash/Celestial Seasonings tea bags years ago. All loose leaf, unless I’m sick or traveling.

I like black, oolong, white, herbals, and raw/ripe pu’erh. I don’t drink green tea often.

I play video games, read, and do pottery. My current favorite tea mug is one I threw and glazed.

I generally review teas twice – initial and final steeps.

My cupboard is completely out of date. I have a spreadsheet (it’s current!!!) that’s over 300 teas. Pretty equal amounts of black, white, oolong, raw, & ripe with a little bit of green/herbal.

Ratings
85-100 are teas that I loved and want to keep in stock.
71-84 are teas that are good. I may or may not get them again. Source for daily drinkers/work teas.
60-70 are teas that I didn’t like. I’ll finish what I bought.
Anything less than 60…nope.
