299 Tasting Notes
So, I don’t generally like ginger, in food or in tea, and I love peaches (love love love) but am usually disappointed by them in teas… yet I still really needed to try this tea! It’s good, too. I’m not going to rate it just yet, but it’s definitely not boring! Not SUPER peachy, but not super.. gingery.. either. It really would make an amazing iced tea. I think K especially would loooove it.
ALSO, Zen Tea spoiled me with samples?! I am super excited to see their Earl Grey Cream in there because I can’t find my last bit from cavocorax and I NEED to try that again to see if the curry(?!)esque taste was just me being sick or WHAT. XD! Anyway, I have a satisfyingly large pouch of jasmine dragon pearl green tea (necessary for survival!) and I don’t have to scare the postman peeping out the door constantly anymore.
Preparation
2 steeps of this yesterday, for some reason the 2nd didn’t turn out as good as it usually does. I love this tea, but I hate messing around with temperatures.
Preparation
Just made a Zen Tea order :D this tea, OF COURSE (because I only had a small pack last time) and a few caffeine free things (because I only have 2 that I LOVE right now, & something must be done about that!) >:D
Nice! I just bought a few rooibos/honeybush things from Della Terra Teas because of the same thing! Those Dragon Pearls sound interesting. I think I’ll order from Zen Tea sometime too. I need more coconut oolong!
oh yeah, because i knew i was getting more jasmine pearls ANY DAY and because i can take or leave the oolong, but you love it. :D
Hit with a nostalgia blast because dry, this smells just like the little touristy knick-knack shop my mom had when I was little. Potpurri O__O but I don’t really taste raspberry OR chocolate, even though I know they’re in there, I saw them. My brain insists I am tasting flowery things to go with that potpurri smell, I guess. Nummy, though!
Preparation
Needed something tasty this morning, child has been a CHALLENGE lately. This hit the spot perfectly… and NOW I’m ready for something badass.
Oh, also: have never really tasted raspberry in this? More like a coconut-fruity candy flavour that is nevertheless YUMMERS.
Preparation
Probably should have done this one in the finer of my two infusers AND also turned the volume up on my phone so I’d hear the steep alarm? YOWZA, that’s a strong tea! Nothing coffeeish about it, imo, but it could PROBABLY strip paint. :D?
