392 Tasting Notes
No overly impressed with this tea. It wasn’t horrible or anything it just wasn’t great. I had it will a bit of milk and it distinctly reminded of when I experimented with putting French vanilla creamer in black tea. It kind of results in a weak tea, fake vanilla flavor. I will finish the sample I got but definitely won’t be buying more.
I really enjoy this tea. It is very relaxing and I think it goes excellently with sweet snacks (I just had it with some chocolate chip cookies). I also think this tea has very strong flavor, all the elements shone through nicely. The only thing I don’t like is the smell – I think it is the rose, it’s kind of a sickly smell. Luckily it doesn’t taste like the dry leaf smells so all is good.
The dry leaves smelled awesome. They smelled so carmely!! Very nice tea. It has a nice black tea flavor with just a hint of caramel. It was nice and sweet but not overpowering. I added milk to bring out the caramel flavor. It was quite good.
This tea was pretty decent. It was a pretty basic green tea. I enjoyed the flavor. Grassy and green-tea-y. There wasn’t much mandarin flavor.
I prepared this tea hot and then chilled it in the fridge for a few hours.
I will definitely enjoy the rest of this sample but I probably won’t purchase more of this tea.
I really enjoyed this tea. I must admit I haven’t really tried oolong before ( besides maybe pre-bottle iced kind) so I can’t rate this tea on it’s oolongness, but as a tea in general it was quite good.
The dry leaves smelled delicious kind of like an almond joy. The wet leaves didn’t have as strong of a coconut smell – it smells kind off spicy like fresh cut herbs or grass.The tea tasted kind of like green tea, vegetal. Then it tasted kind of smooth/oily but in a good way. I have heard people describe oolong as buttery so maybe that’s it. Finally it had just a hint of coconut. The coconut wasn’t strong but I liked that because it added to the flavor without taking away from the tea flavor.
