A sipdown! (M: 1, Y: 1)
Sipdown prompt January 1 – Happy New Year – Drink a tea you’d love to have all year! Happy New Year!

Oh dear. I finished this lovely, yet simple tea? I am sad, you know? First of all, I am not able to contact (they don’t read my WhatsApp messages) nor check company website. Secondly, it is lovely tea and it was great in price/quality ratio. I paid 5 GEL = 1.86 USD for 25 grams of this tea. Cheap! Thirdly, I just hope they are doing well and if once I get to Georgia, I want to visit their teahouse, which seems it is still working.

Anyway, to the tea. Well, it is a bit past its prime, but truth to be said; my storage wasn’t so good. I have opened the plastic bag it was in, thinking I will finish it quickly, but I let all the air and humidity affect the tea for long time. I wanted to move it into some airtight container, but never did (sad face).

But notes of sweet malts and sweet potatoes are still present; just with shorter mouthfeel.

This was a pretty good black tea that resembles some Chinese blacks I’ve had. Sweet malt and caramel aroma that carries over to the flavor of the tea. Full bodied, pleasantly malty with a hint of yam and a little cocoa as it cools. When cold brewed it’s more subdued and tastes of dried prunes.

Flavors: Cocoa, Malt, Yams

Preparation
2 g 10 OZ / 295 ML

Again, I am happy to read it’s fine, but… what is yam?

LuckyMe

Yams are sweet potatoes, usually orange on the inside.

I’ve now had at least six cups of this and each and every time I’ve attempted to make a note and somehow gotten sidetracked. It’s at the point I’m now just agitated about not having made a note haha! So, I made this this morning quickly before running Lexa to an appointment. I’m now sitting in the car park waiting for Lexa to come out and took this spare moment to make a note.

This tea is really smooth, with hints of creaminess and sweetness. Almost like it’s been prepared with light amounts of milk and sugar, but it hasn’t been. I’ve been really impressed with these Georgian teas and would order more for sure!

I’m sad that I didn’t take part in the group order! :(

Cameron, if you want to, I have some tea extra, so I can share with you. I am not sure which ones right now, but HMU and I will try my best doing a swap (but I think in February at earliest).

2022 harvest

I find the description of this tea to be spot on: “Silky, delicate aroma with notes of honey, waxed wood and spices.” And some of that hay Michelle mentioned. It’s clean, sweet and mellow, not at all intense. Steep the first cup for 4 minutes – longer than my usual 3 for black teas – and the second for howeverlong. The second cup can sometimes have a little bit of green bean taste but it’s not out of place for me. Very easy to drink! And a good work tea but I don’t feel much caffeine…

Lipton-drinking coworker said this was really good without his usual creamer and sugar additons :)

Flavors: Brown Sugar, Green Beans, Hay, Honey, Mineral, Sage, Smooth, Spices, Sweet, Tangy, Wood

I’m impressed with this unassuming tea that appears non-descript but brews up smooth and flavorful. There’s a roasty hay note to start and a honey finish on this first steep that disappeared quickly. The second steep was a bit weak, so I extended for another 5 minutes and that brought out the muted toasty notes and the honey finish. I’ll enjoy the rest of this small bag and will try to coax more flavor in an extra steep each time.

Flavors: Hay, Honey, Roasty, Toasty

For the price it seems amazingly complex :)
I am glad to hear it is good one!
