Dinosara drank Golden Earl by Verdant Tea

2201 tasting notes

I’ve just about finished my sample of this tea now! There are some dregs left in the pouch, and I think I’ll just throw them into some cold-brew.

This is an Earl I really, really enjoy, and it’s on my reorder list as soon as I get more of my tea stash under control. It’s also one of those teas that I often forget how good it is until I have some of it again. I mean, I know that I love it, but it always blows me away when I have it, just like the first time. It’s that lovely golden buds tea base. Yum.

Bio

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.

In my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.

Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: Mind-blowingly good, just right for my palate, and teas that just take me to a happy place.
89-86: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they’re not quite as spectacular as the top category
85-80: Pretty tasty teas that I enjoy well enough, but definitely won’t rebuy when I run out.
79-70: Teas that I would probably drink again, but only if there were no preferrable options.
69-50: Teas that I don’t really enjoy all that much and wouldn’t drink another cup of.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.
Unrated: Usually I feel unqualified to rate these teas because they are types of teas that I tend to not like in general. Sometimes user error or tea brewed under poor conditions.
