laurenpressley drank The People's Green Decaf by The Republic of Tea

828 tasting notes

Since the last note that I made on this tea, I’ve gone without it, and only recently ended up with some again. (I’m trying to have some good decafs on hand—for myself in the evening and for my son in general.) Again, this tea is better than I’d expect, and hits the spot when I need green tea but want minimal caffeine. I let the little one try a sip, expecting him to hate it since he normally has herbals and flavored teas, but he loved it. So it’s about to become a staple, I’d guess.

Bio

I’ve been into tea, at some level, since college with a first tin of loose tea brought back by my parents from Oxford. My love of tea increased with a visit to Boston and a chance cup at Tealuxe. Since then I’ve only gotten more interested in tea and have developed more of an appreciation for it.

100: a perfect cuppa. these are the teas I’ll keep in my cupboard and tend to be one per type of tea.

90-99: will definitely get more of this tea

80-89: likely to get more and perhaps it will become a favorite with time

70-79: very good, depending on my mood or the season

60-69: wouldn’t actively try to get this tea, but also wouldn’t avoid it in a tea shop or restaurant

50-59: run-of-the-mill tea for me

40-49: decent, would hit the spot in some moods, but probably wouldn’t purchase it for my cupboard

30-39: okay, will try again, maybe

20-29: meh. I’d try this tea again if no other were available

10-19: drinkable, but a forced cup

0-9: didn’t even finish the cup
