drank Muscat by Lupicia
379 tasting notes

I love grapes. I ate at least 2 lbs of them this week alone and the week isn’t over lol. Yeah, yeah call me a piglet.

So, I bought every kind of grape (Muscat) Lupicia that was available, just to try before they go bye-bye. I’m watching the Tea spending discussion on the forum, I won’t dare write what I spent this month but I watch to make myself feel better for my many “momentary lapse(s) of reason” lol. (Pink Floyd)

This one came the other day (last Lupicia shipment… For real.) and all I have to say is if you don’t mind the artificial grape flavor, and you love candy grape, you’ll probably like this tea. Sometimes I don’t mind grape taffy but that’s candy. It’s like grape soda. The black tea base is nice though, carries it well. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about black tea to tell you more about it.

Right now, I prefer the Mountain Grape (Yamabudo) Oolong over this one because of that. I still have the Grape Green to try that’s waiting in my tea drawer. o.O

So very easy to spend thousands and still imagine that you need MOAR because there are still a handful of delicious ones to try. And then, there’s that what the hell was I thinking feeling when you look at the mountains of teas strategically place throughout your living space. But then, we know that story. Oh wait, is that just me?

Profile

Bio

Longtime casual tea drinker. In the past, mainly Matcha, Gyokuro, Sencha, Genmaicha… Etc. I like all teas: Green, oolong, black & pu’erh (prefer ripe over raw).

Chanoyu (for matcha prep) and Gongfu cha (for other types of tea) are the main ways I prepare my tea (Gaiwan, Yixing teapot, Kyusu). I drink all tea… Usually unflavored. This past year, I’ve tried many flavored now because of all of you lol. As long as there aren’t artificial sweeteners, it’s all good.

Favorite stores: TeaVivre, What-Cha, Mandala Tea, 52Teas, Whispering Pines, Bird & Blend, Yunnan sourcing, White2Tea, Lupicia.

The flavors I dislike: Artificial sweetener, lavender, violet, any strong floral-perfumey tea; cantaloupe, papaya, honeydew, rose, licorice, anise, jasmine, any mints, leather.

Favorite flavors: Citrus fruits (especially grapefruit & tangerines), granny smith apple, bananas, guava, mango, tamarind, watermelon, stonefruits, chocolate, caramel, vanilla, milk, cinnamon, creme, bread/pastry, nuts, toasted, roasted.

I generally don’t add anything to my teas unless they are flavored, then I may add a splash of milk.

As I explore, my ratings may shift. 90+ generally means I’ll keep it on my shelf.
