Smells of tropics, citrus, and a little bit of spice. I don’t quite get all the flavors in the taste. Flavors more subtle in taste. I wish some of the flavors would be more prominent. Maybe I’ll increase the amount of leaf I’m using. Play with the parameters a little. Thick mouth-feel. 2nd steep had more coconut coming out though I also steeped it longer. 1st steep was 2 min, 2nd steep was 3 min. I’ll probably try this again at 2.5 min. Spices were warming. I liked it.

Flavors: Citrus, Coconut, Spices, Tropical

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 2 tsp 14 OZ / 414 ML

Bio

I started my tea journey with Stash/Celestial Seasonings tea bags years ago. All loose leaf, unless I’m sick or traveling.

I like black, oolong, white, herbals, and raw/ripe pu’erh. I don’t drink green tea often.

I play video games, read, and do pottery. My current favorite tea mug is one I threw and glazed.

I generally review teas twice – initial and final steeps.

My cupboard is completely out of date. I have a spreadsheet (it’s current!!!) that’s over 300 teas. Pretty equal amounts of black, white, oolong, raw, & ripe with a little bit of green/herbal.

Ratings
85-100 are teas that I loved and want to keep in stock.
71-84 are teas that are good. I may or may not get them again. Source for daily drinkers/work teas.
60-70 are teas that I didn’t like. I’ll finish what I bought.
Anything less than 60…nope.
