drank Strawberries and Champagne White Tea by Compass Teas
1759 tasting notes

Wow Azzrian, this is good!! thanks for the sample! When it was hot, I really did enjoy this. Not so much as it cooled though. It lost some of that strawberry flavour, and the dryness associated with champagne.
With a touch of agave though, the berry really popped again. I need to try it again, experiment with the parameters a little.
Anyhow, I have news y’all! I got my HR exam results today. I doubt anyone will recall, but I was studying for it a few months back. However, it was not easy. MUCH harder than I expected. So I assumed that I didn’t pass. I knew that I hadn’t passed. Except I knew wrong. I PASSED!! How did this happen?!?! am I dreaming? is it real? seriously???? Cool! wow. I am on cloud 9. Heck, cloud 900!
All day long I’ve been bouncing between dreamy and hyper. (and not bc of the tea this time haha)
Anyhow, just thought I’d share my little cup of happiness.
Now I just need to gain some real “hr” experience and then I am certified. mwahs!

Bio

Let’s see… I’m a tea and workout fanatic, I work in HR, and most of my friends consider me to be an egg. White on the outside, Asian on the inside :)
-from philosophy to food, I love it all
Otherwise, what you see is what you get! I can be very straightforward and yet shy.

Also, I’ve started taking tea sommelier classes and it is an absolute blast! Well, so far I’ve only finished the first out of eight courses, but I am really looking forward to the next one.

Anyhow, if your curious as to how I rate things, this is how I work…

0-25
Like eating dirt, or some other unsanitary indelicacy that mentioning in my profile here would likely get me banned.
I don’t think I’ve found cause to banish a tea to the wasteland yet though so who knows what it’d inspire ;P

25-50
You know that expression “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater”? I imagine drinking that water would be terrible enough to warrant this rating!
I’d never make my enemy drink this, but perhaps I’d throw it at them. Good thing I don’t have any enemies!

50-70
This is “tea”?? I tried finishing the cup… but my body rejected it. There may be others who enjoy this tea, but it’s beyond me!

70-80
I tried liking it, and I can almost get there! I certainly don’t hate it, but something is holding me back. Allergies? Men in white suits? who knows… certainly not me!

80-90
Lovely tea! Not my all time fave but close. I likely wouldn’t repurchase, but may decide to based on many factors: price, accessibility, whether it fills a “tea gap”, medicinal applications, and how often I crave it.
Every once in awhile I find the sweet spot that bumps these up to 90+. Those are the days I need to buy a lotto ticket!

90-95
Sweet Camellia! this is realllly good tea! Don’t talk to me until I’ve finished my cup…

95-100
Tea of the gods. I would do anything to get my hands on more of this liquid gold!
