8 tasting notes

Early afternoon, it’s a little warm but I just received a box of tea in the mail and HAD to make a selection from one of those!! I always like some caffeine and I have to go to work later, so I pulled this out.

The smell of the tea in the bag and freshly-brewed is, frankly, a little off-putting. I get some odd grassy notes, and the definite hit of coffee in the background. But overall, it smells like….baked potatoes? Even a little buttery.

I can’t quite identify any flavors in the tea itself, but it’s good. I did add sugar, like usual, but not too much. Anyway, the baked potato odor is definitely not present in the flavor.

Anyway, I think next time I’ll try a little higher tea to water ratio. Though this is definitely pleasant…maybe I’m just thrown off since I’ve been drinking the really strong strawberry rhubarb parfait so much lately.
