New Tasting Notes

I added a little bit of spearmint (also from Adagio), and now I’m currently orbiting the earth.

The scent is smoky, the taste smooth and mellow and difficult to properly put into words. I think I could drink a lot of this one.

This is as bitter as I like. It has just enough of a bite to it that it adds to the fun of the tea.

Surprisingly yummy. When brewed weak the blueberry is a very smooth, mild flavor. The hibiscus and orange peel haven’t overpowered the berry as they did in this brand’s other fruit teas.

The best Ceylon I have had yet. If I didn’t know better, I would have guessed it was a full leaf Assam. Very smooth.

a flavour explosion in your mouth, SO good as a mid afternoon break.

always good after dinner, or to calm the stomach.

50/50 blend with Apricot flavored black tea from Adagio.

Average black tea. It’s from the tea stash at work and I really need a cup to wake me up and comfort me. This tea did the job for the moment.

Experimenting with a stronger brew, and it’s much more effective. It feels wrong to drink an Assam in the evening, but a man’s gotta do… Maybe I’m hoping for an Ovaltine maltiness before bedtime

It’s taken me a while to get Darjeelings. And drinking tea without milk. It’s been an exploration and an education. I’ve had this Badamtam for a long time, and don’t drink it that often. But I’m really starting to enjoy it for a late afternoon brew. It’s light in colour, but not in taste. There’s a greenish astringency to it that gets to you. I think it’s a 2nd Flush, but can’t remember and it’s not on the website any more.

My standard chai. I add cracked black pepper (in a small infusing spoon) while steeping, then drink with milk and sweetener. Good morning start – Yum!

I really like this. It took a while to get into it. For the subtleties to come through. But it’s great for mid-morning or early afternoon. It’s well rounded but not overpowering. A good, solid cuppa!

Straight from the themas flavor.

I boil my water to the temperature necessary then dumped it into my teapot that already had my infuser in it..let it steep for 5. (a little bit longer than that) and Sprinkled some sugar. Plain and Simple.

My morning tea today…just because…
