jump62359 drank Bruce Banner by Adagio Custom Blends, Cara McGee

726 tasting notes

Let’s go ahead and celebrate because I just took two online quizzes and I got a 100% on both :) Let’s hope I do that well on the last two quizzes!
And then after that, I’ve gotta finish that group project I forgot was due tomorrow…

But Bruce Banner tea though! I would have never thought of buying it until shmiracles offered to do a fandom swap! She got Loki, I got Bruce and swapped half for half :)
Bruce is a chamomile/green pekoe/earl grey green blend. The earl grey comes out really heavily the second you open the pack, but the amount of chamomile in it. It was a bit overwhelming.
Steeping, it smells like a faint earl grey, but the colour… it’s definitely not the most pleasing? I’d say what it looks like but.. naw. No one needs to know.
The overall taste is really good though! Nice and mellow like the Bruce Banner we all know, but the robust flavour of the Earl Grey with the Hulk and manliness and wow this just encompasses Bruce’s character okay. A very nice blend and the flavours compliment each other nicely :)

The other quizzes didn’t go so well, but a pretty good passing score nonetheless :)

Tea rating guide:
100-95: Best thing to ever touch my mouth and I want more. Restocking is a must
94-80: Love this tea. Restock if I can
79-70: Decent tea. Neither love nor hate.
69-60: I won’t be upset when it runs out. I’ll drink it but won’t restock.
59-30: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea and I’ll finish the cup.
29-10: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea. It may or may not have gone down the sink…
9-below: Let’s not even hide it. This definitely went down the drain.

I love tea.
I drink it.
I log it.
I have a good time.
Lather, rinse, repeat.

I first discovered my love for tea with jasmine teas because that’s all my mother would buy, so for the longest time, I thought that all teas were jasmine! And then in 4th grade, I watched the tea episode of Good Eats and that’s when the education started! I’d like to blame Alton Brown for starting this obsession because now I only like loose leaf tea.
It wasn’t until my second year of college that I actually expanded my tea taste buds. Special shout out to Cara McGee, Tea Queen for her Adagio Fandom blends. Because of Cara, I actually started drinking blacks, herbals and whites and pretty much everything else in between. I still have a special love for my jasmine though :)
I (try to) drink tea daily. Usually just straight up, no sugar or milk. This little obsession started young and just… kept going, I guess.

also I apologize in advance for lazy tasting notes and horrible grammar in everything I write. I was an avid fandom blogger on tumblr and tumblr talk can get in the way of everything kthxbai
