Sipdown Challenge: National Compliment Day/Drink A Favorite Tea
I didn’t quite have enough of this one left for a large mug so I did mix a little bit of another milk oolong I have from The Coffee & Tea Exchange in with this one. (Does anyone know who they source their teas from by the way?) The other one is definitely more of a vegetal quality to it but hopefully, it won’t affect this cup too much. Milk Oolongs in general are a favorite of mine.
This one is somewhat creamy with strong floral notes specifically of orchid, it’s also slightly vegetal, and mineral-y. Wouldn’t recommend drinking this on an empty stomach but that goes for oolongs in general. I think I prefer this one as a latte even though I rarely make them. (drinking this one plain today)

Flavors: Creamy, Floral, Mineral, Orchid, Vegetal

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 3 min, 0 sec 3 tsp
Mastress Alita

Oh, Milk Oolong is one of my favorites, too! (Though I’ve already depleted my stash of it, heh.)

I’ve never heard of The Coffee & Tea Exchange! However, looking at their teas at least some of them look like English Tea Store.

I drink tea for many reasons: For pleasure, health benefits, mindfulness, to help with anxiety, hydration because I have always struggled with drinking plain water.
My rating system is kind of a mess and I keep telling myself I’ll fix it sometime.

0-23 Rating Means I couldn’t finish the cup
50- Undecided on a rating or don’t remember enough about it to rate the tea.
