7 Tasting Notes
When I first had this tea i was very surprised. I usually like my teas pretty strong in taste, but I was in the mood for something with less of a kick and more of a subtle tone. I’m not sure if it’s just me, but even though i put less than i usually use, it still had that beautiful red color-and a fruity kick! I was not expecting it, so i couldn’t tell if I liked it. I had it again recently at a good friends house and I was satisfied. Not a favorite, but I needed to blog about it.
Preparation
Again this morning, the sparkles and glittering effects soothed the tired eyes of myself and my sister. The small amount of caffeine helped kickstart my day of testing ahead, and so far everything is going well. I had to reheat the tea pretty quickly though, which is probably a user error, but that was my only complaint.
This tea tastes exactly like birthday cake. I added two spoonfuls of sugar to it (just regular spoonfuls of standard sugar, nothing fancy) and with the great health benefits of Rooibos, it’s great to enjoy on a nice afternoon-or any time of day when you’re feeling like birthday cake!
This was the first tea I ever had. It was very cinnamon-y and nutty. I was nuts about it (ha-ha). I added some honey to it to give it a little extra kick and I really enjoyed it. I haven’t had it in a while because I have been exploring other teas, but it’s a tea I like to wind down my evening with while reading a book.
So this is my first Steepster post. Hello.
This is my second cup of this today. I had one in the morning before school and I didn’t get to finish it, so now I’m finishing what I started.
I’m very pleased with it, it’s relaxing and energizing at the same time. It’ll keep me up for the work I have to do tonight, but it definitely calmed me down from the rough day behind me.
So yes the tea. I actually really enjoy it, although at first I admit I didn’t think I would. This is my first black tea. It happens to be one of my favorites now. Definitely going to get a tin of this for the winter!
