Sip down via cold brew.

I’ve been mixing this with the usual Orange Pekoe for cold brew. It helps.

If this wasn’t so bitter, I think this might be a favorite. So close and yet so far.

Sip down!

I let this one get too old. Its been sitting in my stash for almost 2 years now. Suprising the flavor that I had remembered was mostly still there.

I can’t remember if I tried doing this as a cold brew. I keep thinking I had and that I did not enjoy it. But, if I did, I made no notes and I might have this mixed up in my head with a diferent tea.

Overall it was enjoyable. But I find my enthusiasm for flavored teas tends to go through a pattern. I started off excited and loving it enough that I buy a significant (for me at least) amount. I go through about a third of what I bought and then just loose interest.

Note to self, stop buying flavored teas in quantity no matter how much I am currently loving it.

Honestly, this is from an order made a year and a half ago, but its been sitting since I’ve been using cold brew to sip down a bunch of other teas.

I’m not sure if its the age or if this was just not the tea in the package. It reminds me of pu’erh. Leather and mud and grossness, Definitely does not taste like orders I’ve had in the past.

Asked a few coworkers for their opinions and everyone agrees, so its not just me.

I’ve had to throw it out.

Good, but I do prefer Golden Snail more.

Fun, but its too much cinnamon and not enough tea for my tastes.
I did find I enjoy mixing it with other teas that could use a bit of cinnamon to them.

Sip down.
I went through this slow enough that I suspect it was just loosing something. Still a little sweetness but not much else.

Sip down!

I think there might be some interesting flavors here but they seem to conflict with the roast, at least for me. The overall affect just feels muddied.

Thought I would try doing a cold brew sip down.
Reminds me of perfumed soap.
