drank Black Currant Bai Mu Dan by 52teas

I am drinking the best iced tea that I have ever had in my life!!! 4 tsp of this tea for 8 hours in 4 cups of water cold brewed in the refrigerator…and the best part? The tea resteeps beautifully! I added 4 more cups of water to the leaves and left them to cold brew for 12 hours. It’s a shade lighter in color and just a little less amazing white tea and currant flavor. I may have to buy out 52teas stock of this tea!

Glad I just ordered a bag of this, I’ve read such great reviews of this tea from you and a few others, I just had to get it (and Pina Colada Honeybush).

This really IS my new favorite. It’s just flabbergasting as an iced tea.

I’m glad I have some left so I can try it iced. I also think it gets better and better as it cools so it makes sense that its a good iced tea.

Bio

I love to cook, bake, read, paint, knit, do needlework, and garden. I need my coffee, but I LOVE my tea. I work at an Art School, and attend a large public university doing post-bac work (my BA is in English). I’m interested in the liminal spaces between art and craft, the academic and the practical, the individual and community, and the old and the new. I’m currently exploring these ideas through the disciplines of education, literature, history, and psychology.

I enjoy writing tasting notes, but have decided not to numerically rate teas as of 9/14/10. For an explanation, see my looooong tasting note about Mountain Malt from the Simple Leaf.

My favorites:
Chinese black teas
A good “milk and sugar” English style black
Earl Grey (classic, and in all variations!)
Vanilla teas (classic, and in all variations!)
Jasmine, Rose, Violet and other froofy, flowery teas!
An Occasional Oolong
Flavored Rooibos
Herbal Tisanes
