Having this tea this morning, I wasn’t quite awake yet. I read the flavors – fresh flowers, bumblebee? It’s buttercream. Which I don’t get. The bumblebee gave me a chuckle. What does bumblebee taste like?
Mostly I get flowers out of this tea. It’s not sugary tasting.

Sipdown. Sample?
I really wish I would have tried this earlier. It’s sold out and I can’t order any.
So good. Honey and smooth, but I wish I could have more of it to drink.

Sipdown. Tea club
I did not like this tea all that much, which is unfortunate because I usually like white2tea’s black teas. I drank this western style for the entire 50g bag.
Faint peach flavor. Very easy to over steep, sometimes woody. Not a very robust tea and easy to make unpleasant. When it was a decent cup, it didn’t have a lot of flavor.

Sipdown. Pretty sure this was from the White2Tea club. I liked it, but I don’t have solid flavor notes from it, more feelings. Warm, comforting, slightly sweet.

Sipdown, western style. Kinda contrary to normal directions for these, but I don’t do too much gong fu style due to it taking more time/energy than I have sometimes.
Three steeps on this, at boiling for the 1st, then with cooler water for the other two. Flavors stayed the same throughout, just weaker on the later steeps.
Sweet, amber (maybe honey?? not sure what I meant here), sugar cane, chocolate, cocoa. A nice smooth black tea.

I drank all of this tea hot and probably should have cold brewed some of it. There were big pieces of raspberry in it, but they didn’t impart much flavor. I wanted it to be more than what it was giving me. Honeybush, light fruityness

Sipdown. I don’t remember anything striking about this tea. It was okay, but not a repurchase.

I really liked this and am sad that I have drank it all. Pretty sure this came in one of the club boxes. Solid black tea would order more if available.

Sipdown. I liked this. I don’t have any notes for you, but I would purchase it again.

I didn’t like the taste of this one. Dry leaf smells fruity. Taste is fruity, but has an unpleasant aftertaste. Astringent and drying.
Western style preparation (like everything lately, at work).
