Bio
My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.
Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.
I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!
Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)
Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.
I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta
95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around
94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase
89-80 Pretty good, above average
79-70 Acceptable
69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it
59-50 Ick
49 and below Nasty

More than a 92….
I calls ’em like I sees ’em :-P
this looks like another Fab green.
Do you like this one better than the Mei Li Amy?? Charles???
’Cause I thought the Mei Li rocked, so why does this one get a higher score? How is it better? Or, maybe not better….special?
Scott, the Mei Li was good but I found it too smoky – I think that is just a matter of personal taste. This one is very sweet and floral.
I thought maybe if you lowered the temp 10*, but I’m not sure it would have made that much diff with the smokiness. Sweet & floral…..Now I CAN’T order from every tea company. I’ll have to prioritize my 2012 tea selections!
