345 Tasting Notes

Yum, Mocha! Smells like hot chocolate. I don’t like most teas that taste like chocolate but this one does not offend me. I’m really enjoying this giant mug of this, even as it cools it does not get bitter, stays smooth. I have this itch to add milk to it but it’s yummy just the way it is. I kind of shy away from teas with puerh but I’m trying to be more open minded and I’m so glad I got a chance to try this and see myself getting more in the future.
I really like this one. So does my husband, who is not really a tea drinker.
:) Good to know, the thought crossed my mind to let the husband try but I didn’t. I could see him enjoying it with milk and sugar, I may have to put a stick of cinnamon in it for him and call it chai :)

I made this on the stove top with whole milk and dark brown sugar to share with my chai loving husband.
In the beginning I get lightly spiced cookie (Myhusband thought shortbread?) yeah, a spiced shortbread cookie. As it cools the spices came out to play a little more. I think I may have been depriving myself of cookies because that is what I got from another one of persimmon tree chais . So it got me thinking, it has been months since I last had a cookie, I will have to fix that soon.
I’m so ready for FALL! I’m jealous of the people I see on here with cool weather already.

What I remember is the smell of the lemongrass, breadiness from the yunnan and bergamot in the background oh and that it is not available at the moment to order.
My computer died yesterday, I had a few notes on a few teas lost forever but other than that I will not be missing much.

I never would have thought to try fig matcha but I figured why not. It has a candy fruity smell and taste. It reminds me of what I remember juicy fruit gum tasting like. I don’t know if this is what candy fig would taste like, never had it.
