6/90. Got this from TXS at some point, but I can’t find it on their site anymore so it must’ve been a long time ago. Assuming it was pretty cheap, but I can’t remember.
dry: roasty, bread, berries, almost sour. wet: roasty, medicinal. taste is medicinal and bitter chocolate, with some of the celery/mineral notes. some astringency at front of tongue. not a great experience overall. My pack was pretty crushed, so that didn’t really help.
Just a chronicle of a stranger’s tea journey. Keeping old notes up to see progression, but no longer really believe in all of them. Trying to learn!! Weekend warrior mostly now; work is tough.
As of 4/21/21, I will no longer assign numerical ratings to a tea unless it is terrible enough to warrant one. There are a fair amount of solid teas out there, and reading mildly subjective reviews from others > very subjective numerical rating that gets skewed by Steepster’s calculating system anyway.
