1629 Tasting Notes
I can’t believe I am all out of this one! This was a really good summery herbal blend. I made this hot last night and had another batch in the fridge cold-brewing til this morning. Delicious! I love herbals because I don’t need to use sugar in them. This herbal has slices of coconut in it, which I love. Good tea overall. I gulped it down :)
I’m trying to save the rest of my pouch for the summertime, but your tealog is making me want some now ….mmmm
I wanted a warm beverage tonight. I went to my parents’ house and am planning on staying here for 1-2 weeks while I am on nightfloat. I brought a variety of teas and tisanes. However, I forgot to bring a filter :( I hope the Wegman’s closeby has something. I opted for this one since this is a bagged tea, and it is nighttime here. This tea is really mild, but does well with milk and some sugar. This tea reminds me of a black assam that has been steeped twice, and this would be the third time I’m steeping it. The brew was a honey brown color, and it was light. Okay tea overall. I am not overly impressed. After I am done with the 5 tea bags that I have left, I am not buying this again.
Preparation
I decided to try this one from my samples box! I received this from Lady 0f Spaydes. Thank you :)
This one smells like a strawberry milkshake on the dry leaf. It smells a little artificial. The chocolate makes this taste malty like a strawberry malt milkshake. Delicious! This is definitely a good dessert tea. The puer is very mild, but makes this tea a little more interesting. At the end of a sip, there is mild astringency. I imagine this would taste great with milk, but I don’t have any in my fridge. Good tea overall!
