726 Tasting Notes
Once you go looseleaf, you never go back.
Bleh.
This tea was kinda gross? There’s a thing about bagged tea that I absolutely hate. It’s just so… no.
I mean, like I *think it’d be good? But I’m just so used to the taste of loose leaf that this one was just… I didn’t really care for it. Luckily it was free haah
First off, this smells AMAZING.
I bought the sample cube not too long ago and this was in it! So happy with the selection that they have in the sample cube.
It smells amazing in the sachet, and you can really smell the guava when brewing.
I’m drinking it right now and OH MY GOSH IT’S SO GOOD. I’m not the biggest fan of fruity tea, but oh this ones so so SO good! I like the little hints of strawberry, and all the flavours are just balanced so perfectly. Definitely going to buy this on my next shopping spree!
Preparation
What am I doing with my life right now.
So I moved to Florida because of an internship and I only managed to bring like half my teas with me and I’ve already drank them all so now I’m blending them together and tonight is LESTRADE WITH CARAMEL AND IRISH BREAKFAST. It’s okay. But I just want the rest of my tea now. And I know I can’t buy more because I’ll have to bring them back home when my internship ends.
THE STRUGGLE THAT IS MY LIFE.
I wanted to experiment so I decided to brew this just just milk. I usually brew it with water and then add like 982374 gallons of milk because this chai on its own is just.. ehh okay. So milk on the stovetop with a scoop of chai is pretty good! Had to add a little bit of sugar but this is still a pretty good chai :)
Ohhhh this is good. It tastes a bit like Earl Grey without the bergamot? I think? Or maybe a blend of Earl Grey and English Breakfast. Either way, it’s gooood.
I accidentally steeped this longer than it should have and it turned out to be very bitter, Nothing but a bit of plain old water to fix that! I’m drinking this plain right now. It’s good on its own. Doesn’t need milk or sugar; just a nice simple tea :)
**drinking it a bit more and it has a very slight nutty taste.
lol. I love your reviews. They’re the best. I can totally hear you talking when I read this. hehe. MISS YOU.
