Maddy Barone drank Watermelon Mint by The Republic of Tea

768 tasting notes

It’s getting a bit warmer now, so I cold brewed a big pitcher of this. I think I’ll nudge my previous rating of 70 to 75. It is refreshing. Since I can’t smell and have no idea what it tastes like, all can say is I find it refreshing, with no aftertaste or bitterness. I recently got a soda stream soda maker and added some sparkling water to it. Very nice. I don’t think I’ll run out and buy more of this, but the pre-measured pouches the tea comes in are sure handy. I’ll enjoy a few more quarts of this until it’s gone.

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
