drank Blue Lagoon by DAVIDsTEA
513 tasting notes

Sipdown! I actually went through 100 g of this faster than I thought I would, because I cold-brewed it a fair bit. I’ve liked this tea less and less over time though, and today’s cold-brew is refreshing but still manages to taste weird. There’s a sickly pineapple taste that insists on filling my mouth here and it seems a bit too sharp against the candied blueberry, which I admit I wish i could taste more of. Ah well, not a repurchase, but at least I made use of what I did have.

ETA: I was all excited to remove this from my cupboard when I realized I’d never added it! fail.

I would think so! “Yes! I can finally remove this!….wait, what!? awwww, man…” That sort of thing could really drag down a tea lover. haha

And this is completely random, but I just read on your bio that you’re engaged to be married to your best friend, and how that makes you feel like the richest woman on the planet….. awww, is that so fantastic! There’s nothing better than Best Friend Partners. I married my best friend, too, and he pretty much makes my life awesome. So, tea cheers to love! :)

Bio

Well, it’s been slightly over six months since I’ve joined steepster, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this community. Like many of you, I began my foray into the world of loose-leaf tea by discovering David’s Tea, and although I’ve ventured out and have discovered many other companies that I’m extremely fond of, there are still many of David’s teas that I hold close to my heart and I will always appreciate it as a starting point for my journey.

As for my preferences, I tend to prefer bold black tea, flavoured and unflavoured alike, and I almost always take my blacks with cream and sugar. This isn’t to say that I don’t enjoy a good, flavoured white though, and I’m slowly making my way through the incredibly confusing world of oolongs and greens. I am also not a fan of rooibos, although I am starting to suspect green rooibos may be ok, but you know how it is: when you’ve decided you detest a certain ingredient, you’ll notice it everywhere—perhaps even where it doesn’t exist!

Things other than tea: I’m engaged to be married to my best friend, and feel like the richest woman on the planet because of it. I am also a veracious reader, and I also happen to have an obsession with fragrances, and have amassed quite a collection, although it pales in comparison to some collections out there! As a result of this obsession, I also follow several fragrance blogs, and am always up for a chat about scent. I’m also almost completely blind, and this does indeed mean that I come complete with a guide dog, who unlike me, hales from the sunny California campus of Guide dogs for the Blind. I think I’ve rambled on long enough, but if there’s anything you’d like to know or if you just feel like chatting to someone, please don’t hesitate to send me a message.
