drank The Crowconut by BrutaliTeas
1445 tasting notes

Love the name, but didn’t always think the combined ingredients worked; something felt metallic or “ringy”, possibly the coconut or cacao. My favourite session had creamo in it, which is usually a “nope” for me (but it was so good here).

On another note – crows now know where I live and that I have peanuts. If I’m not awake at crow-approved hours, they bang on my bedroom roof until I make my way to the kitchen. If I’m already in the kitchen they make sorrowful eye contact with me through the kitchen window. Help.

Flavors: Coconut, Dark Chocolate, Malt, Nutty

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 30 sec

I am jealous you have crow friends. Maybe they need a puzzle to get their peanuts? They are super smart. I’d trade you boring old squirrels for a crow friend any day.

That crow activity is so fitting for you! haha :D

I love crows but their intelligence and tenacity is slightly intimidating when it’s directed in your direction (and don’t get me started on the silly squirrels)! XD

Bio

I started my Steepster loose leaf adventure back in 2012. I can’t say I’m completely new anymore, but I still view oolong as a magical, extraterrestrial creature that unfurls in water.

My favourites are teas like Milk Oolong, Silver Needle,and Japanese Sencha/Gyokuro, or fruity and floral flavoured ones. However, I generally enjoy ALL the teas, including a good old cup of Earl Grey or Breakfast blend.

Subjective Rating System:
I don’t give a lot of low ratings out, since a) I tend to grab tea I know will appeal to me, and b) I don’t have a lot of strong dislikes.

90-100: Favourites. The Desert Island Teas.
80-89: Loved teas. Possibly staple-worthy.
70-79: Good teas, but I’m less likely to repurchase. Minor quibbles.
60-69: Ok teas. Likely a few preference and/or quality issues.
50-59: Cup of meh. Will do in a pinch.
11-49: Varying levels of undrinkable tea.
1-10: Nightmare tea from the chaos realms. This tea is the embodiment of the primordial swamp, an unholy abomination. It’s very gross and I’m almost positive it doesn’t exist.
