Sipdown 117/395, we’re on a roll guys!
Another pot shared with the boyfriend, and the first one he’s chosen which wasn’t a black tea base. He wasn’t keen this time around, so maybe we should stick to black teas for a while. Ease him into it a bit more. In fairness to him, I didn’t give him much choice – I had a few teas I wanted to move out and basically made him pick one of a few instead of giving him free reign, and I could tell that none of them really took his fancy. To give him credit where credit is due, he did pick one and dutifully drank half of the pot, before delivering his verdict that it was alright but he probably wouldn’t choose it again. Never mind. I on the other hand thoroughly enjoyed it, and was pleasantly surprised at how well the flavours had stood the test of time. A very pleasant dessert replacement with accurate flavours, though not one I would choose if I were looking for a complex white. This could be to do with the age of the tea (I’ve had it a couple of years) but after reading a few other reviews on here I’m inclined to believe that the tea base was never a standout to begin with. Thanks for the sample, WhatSheSaid!
