Matu drank Cha Yen Thai by Teavana

485 tasting notes

Not a fan of this one. The myriad flavors don’t seem to express themselves very well after a shorter brewing time, but a longer one makes this tea come out pretty tannic. Fruits and stuff totally gone after one steep, and not enough actual tea in it to make more than one steep worthwhile. I suppose its one redeeming quality is that it made a halfway-decent iced tea.

Flavors: Fruity, Tannic

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 2 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 20 OZ / 591 ML

Bio

A bit about myself: 22 years old, college grad (Double major in Anthropology and History). I plan to make a career of archaeology and hopefully travel (much of) the world in my days.

I enjoy many things aside from tea, including gaming, mixing cocktails, reading, watching anime, and painting miniatures.

My favorite type of tea is sheng puerh. Particularly younger stuff, if only because I haven’t gotten the chance to taste much of anything aged. I also really like oolong (Taiwanese, Wuyi, Dancong, etc.) and Japanese Green Teas. I do also enjoy most other kinds of tea, but they aren’t what I normally buy. I’m not a huge fan of shou puerh, black tea, or flavored blends, with few exceptions.

I really like interacting with the tea community, so if you ever want to talk or swap teas or anything, feel free to shoot me a message or something. Follow me and I’ll follow you back. Probably ;)
