Lupicia Suggestions...

I might be going by their shop in a couple weeks. Already have, and like the Muscat Oolong. Now I want to get something new, and need suggestions. Preferably rooibos, oolong, or black tea. And it needs to be about $6 or less. Thanks much.

Melong oolong; cookie; caramel whatever orzo (but only if you like deep rich flavours that are like coffee); golden honey dew; pineapple oolong if you like coconut…some of their herbals are really nice too if you like those sorts of flavours.

Melon oolong is great. I resteeped it for 2 days. Pineapple oolong was too subtle to notice.

Oolong comes in melon flavour? Never had a melon tea before.

Here are my 3 favs

Chocolate Strawberry Pu’er!!!!!!!! It’s not a strong pu’er so its pretty friendly.

Momoko is really good too – peach green.

Champagne Rose – for a sweet fruity black.

I really liked the Strawberry Chocolate Pu-er and the Momo black tea. It’s so hard to choose, everything sounds so good.

Caramel & Rum rooibos!
I also like jardin sauvage and piccolo for rooibos, melon oolong, momo oolong super grade, and cookie (black). Have fun! I work near there. There’s also a DavidsTea in that mall. :)

My favorite is Golden Honey Dew. There are 3 teas you can only get in Bay Area stores and Golden Honey Dew is one of them. Check out those 3 since they aren’t available online.

Get the Kiwi black tea!! It’s amazing. I also loved the momo oolong super grade, but it’s pricey :-/

Their Earl Grey Grand Classic is fantastic. Although it takes some getting used to at first, the added complexity is really appealing.

Another vote for Melon Oolong, and I also quite like the Chocolate Strawberry Puerh.

I was leaning towards the puer. I like melons, but I’m not sure about them as a flavour.
