Don’t know how “rum” it tasted but was nice and mild. Enjoyable.

Found this in the back of my pantry – only 7g so I put the whole thing in 9oz to brew for 1min. Tastes like a mild black but with nice soft citrus notes. I think I remember it being smokier – not sure if age or the way I brewed it made the difference there but I like it.

Used more leaf to see if I could make this tea rise above mediocre. The flavor now has more depth. I still don’t taste pineapple notes, but there is a sweet, almost citrus-y flavor to it that layers on top of the normal green oolong flavor. Could still be improved but is nicely drinkable.

Ceylon just is not a favorite. This isn’t as good quality-wise as some that I’ve had but it’s okay. I probably like it more than the nicer one I had before since that one tasted of raspberries and I don’t like raspberries. This one is just kind of a general, not overly exciting Ceylon.

In the mood for a Darjeeling and this one really hits the spot. Tastes fresh, a bit buttery.

drank Himalayan Oolong by SpecialTeas

Very much like a Darjeeling. The more I have this, the more I like it but I doubt it will be something I must always have on hand.

drank Caramele by Lupicia

Flavored teas usually leave a funny aftertaste for me, but this one is nice. Like I just ate a caramel cream pie.

My last of this one. Used a little more leaf to finish it off and really can taste the buttery flavor. I’m sad to see the last of this tea.

drank Buddha Hand by TeaCuppa

A decent oolong but I haven’t found it to be overly impressive. Light and slightly sweet but indistinct. Might help if I used more leaf – I used 4g/6oz

I’m trying to be a better tea logger and actually post semi-regularly again! I’ve let my tea tasting senses become too complacent – it’s time for some focused and attentive tea drinking!

Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.

1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
