drank Black Sesame Bao by Almost Tea
1724 tasting notes

This was the one black tea in this month’s Almost subscription. It does have a very light black sesame taste, but I have to search for it a little. I let this cup cool, then reheated it and I’m getting a flat alkaline taste. It was better when it was freshly made, but it still wasn’t amazing. In the finish I can imagine a little of the bao bread flavor. I think this is a really interesting idea for a tea, but the execution needs more work. The flavors need to be more rich and present.

My name is Dustin and I like tea.

I’m an added flavor kind of tea fan, but have had a growing appreciation for plain. I want my tea to remind me of cookies and cakes with coconut and almond slices with a hint of chocolate drizzled on top. I want dancing ponies and flying monkeys shooting off fireworks! And no hibiscus. Hibiscus is the devil.
