6106 Tasting Notes

T is for… The Night is Dark and Full of Terrors!
Still find this tea a bit too potent. Maybe it’s the ginger? The rooibos in the base doesn’t help, either.
Also, revisiting these GoT teas makes me want to rewatch the series. I’ve been absolutely blasting through tv series and movies lately, owing to large amounts of dishes and laundry; I bet I’d get through it pretty quickly! Haha.

T is for… The Mad Hatter’s Tea!
Finally onto the remaining T teas that I actually drank yesterday (my alphabet challenge got a bit messed up due to vacation, and most of my notes have been pretty backlogged).
This tea has grown on me – it’s a pleasant citrussy earl grey with an emphasis on lemon. Not my favourite EG, but satisfying.

T is for… The Earl’s Garden!
Yes, I know, I shouldn’t be using “The” for “T”… but I am. Hahaha.
Anyhow, had a nice (but very oversteeped) cup of this. It’s very fruity, a bit floral, and with only a bit of an EG punch. It’s really quite nice, and reminds me of French teas, not that I’ve had that many.

S is for… Strawberry Pancakes!
I think I enjoyed this a bit more than my previous cup, but still wasn’t enough strawberry, and the base was a little astringent. Also missed the mapley pancake essence from e.g. Pancake Breakfast!

S is for… Steepster’s Ho-dduk Ho-dduk Goose!
Hadn’t the faintest recollection of how this was supposed to taste, but unfortunately, it fell pretty flat for me. Basically a cinnamon black with not too much going on. I’ll try again and hopefully pay more attention, but will assume the other flavours people have experienced are lacking due to age.
