Mr. Tea drank Decaf Momo by Lupicia

116 tasting notes

Overall, this is okay. If you need to avoid caffeine; this is a good tea.

Similar to the normal Momo but some of the flavors are a bit muted; not as tangy and no sharpness.

It tastes like I’m smelling japanese peach gum – yes you read that right, haha. Specifically, Marukawa peach gum (tattoo type). When I am drinking this tea, it has the faint taste of powdered peach flavor that you would smell on this particular gum. It’s nice and nostalgic for me but every time I take a sip, I feel like I want to eat the gum and all I’m allowed is to smell it.

It isn’t a bad tea, I just feel like I want more from it – due to my experience with the aforementioned gum.

I don’t have a sensitive palate but I do tend to shy away from harsh and bitter flavors. For instance, I can’t stand raw celery and olives – the smell/taste is way too intense. I find coffee to be too muddy/earthy, tea is light and crisp.

I find plain, black tea to be either too bitter or a bit too bland – unless I’m adding cream and sugar. I love flavored black teas; flavored rooibos is great as an evening drink; and light, grassy green teas are wonderful. Oolong and Pu-erh teas are good too but haven’t had as much exposure to them. White teas I’m still on the fence – one day I hope I’ll find one that I’ll like. I don’t like the spiced teas (e.g. chai)

My Grading Scale:
80-100 – Excellent Teas. These are the Teas I crave all the time, even when trying out new teas.

60-79 – Good Teas. I drink these occasionally.

50-59 – Passing Grade. These are worth a try again

Below 50 – Would not recommend, and probably will never try again
