Surprise sipdown! I wasn’t expecting to be finished with this one so quickly, but that’s what happens when you keep making huge pots of tea. Obviously I like this one. It’s surprisingly light and mild for a roasted tea and has a complex flavor—at times it almost verges on salty/savory, like roasted seaweed chips. It goes with almost any meal and is the kind of workhorse tea I can always grab when I don’t know what I want. Mom loves this one too and I’ll probably be rebuying it before too long.

Flavors: Green, Hay, Roasted, Salty, Seaweed

Bio

Elizabeth, college student, anthropology major, bio and history minor. I love to travel and try new foods (and teas!). I also enjoy music, books, video games as often as I can get my hands on them.

I loved tea as a kid, didn’t drink it for about ten years, and then rediscovered it a couple of years ago. Tea sometimes helps me feel better when chronic illness is making things hard. It’s also fun to experiment with!

I’m still pretty new to the types and brands of tea out there, but I’m interested in trying some of everything. My favorites are earl greys, yunnans, medium-bodied oolongs, Japanese greens, fruit, vanilla, and floral flavors (especially jasmine and rose). My least favorites are teas that are overly smoked, bitter, or contain strong hibiscus or orange peel.
