Dinosara drank The Jolly Earl by Verdant Tea (Special)

2201 tasting notes

This is incredibly unseasonal for a warm, spring-y day like today, but it is next so there you go. Actually some reserve yabao is next but I am unlikely to be gongfu-ing before the weekend so it is being (temporarily) skipped. Which should make this one #46.

Unseasonal, but delicious. I get kind of bored with Christmas-spices type teas but LB keeps this interesting. I kinda wish they would bring this one back at least at holiday times. Ah well, I have probably half an ounce of it anyway so it will probably take me forever to get through it.

Preparation

Boiling 3 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

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.
