I ♥ NewYorkCiTEA drank Pomegranate Black Tea by Bigelow

545 tasting notes

I spent yesterday at my parent’s studying in their empty quiet house while they were at work. And I drank a lot of bagged teas. So here comes the bagged teas recap.

This one was a solidly nice bagged fruity black. I can taste the black tea, it’s not bitter or overwhelming or underwhelming. And I can taste tart fruit that is reminiscent of pomegranate. At least, it doesn’t taste like generic tart berry, that is to say.

I made all of these in a big pottery mug, which most of my parent’s are, and enjoyed sipping them as I studied.

I’m rating this one a 58 (nice bagged tea range is 50-60).

Preparation

Bio

I’m 33 years old, studying pharmacy, and have a surly cat named Bin. I love tea, coffee, beer, wine, and most things food and beverage related. I also love music, movies, reading, writing, and learning new things.

I’ve drank tea all my life but about five to six years ago, my close friend Spautz got into tea and got me more into tea. I drink black teas and tisanes/herbals most. Since receiving a variable temperature kettle from my parents for Xmas this past year, I’ve been drinking more greens, oolongs, and whites. I’m very very new to puerh. That is, I’ve had only one.
