2201 tasting notes

Next oldest tea (#105), and this one it’s really hard to believe it’s as old as it is. Still full of flavor and totally delicious. Love the combo of marzipan-y almond and cranberry.

I’ve just noticed an interesting trend (after two teas, lol), in that all my oldest teas are my highest rated. I’ve gotten rid of (i.e., sipped down) all the ones I don’t care for that are older, it’s just my favorites that I can’t bring myself to sip down…

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.
