Well, I’ve learned a lesson today. Don’t review teas based on memory.
I’m in my kitchen sipping on a cup of this lychee black and I’m unimpressed. This doesn’t seem the same tea I first reviewed. Bad batch, maybe? Recessionary loss in quality!? Agh!!
The fragrance of the dry leaf is still good. However… dusty, watery flavor with a slight lychee taste at the front and a weak flavor of whatever kind of black tea was used at the back. Maybe a longer brew would help it out but not enough to make it worth purchasing again.
I maintain that it would make an above average iced tea, though. I’m not picky about iced tea.
I still intend to send you some, takgoti! You’ll probably be able to blast it more thoroughly since I think you have more sophisticated taste bud than I do. Haha.

Hah! Hardly more sophisticated, but I’m always down for trying a new tea. I think that the rest of the stuff I ordered should be in this week, so I’ll probably have stuff out to you the week after.

I actually feel this way a lot. Even if I reviewed something whilst drinking, I come back to it and don’t feel the same way. So sad :(
