sipsby advent, day 1

I didn’t plan to do this advent again originally but since I missed Plum Deluxe and this went on sale, I decided to go for it. It showed up late last night so I’m a day behind (but these are not assigned any numbers anyway; it’s random).

What stands out the most for this particular tea is how sweet it is. I can see the vision of baked goods, with hints of spice that come through more in the scent than the flavor. It makes me think of shortbread cookies with the sugar ramped up a notch (or two, even). I finished it, but I wouldn’t go back for more.

Flavors: Cookie, Sugar, Sweet

Preparation

Great at buying tea, okay at drinking tea, awful at timely reviews. Drawn to fruit, floral, spice, smoke, and flavored teas in general; prefer those that stand well without milk or sweetener. Black is fine, green is better, and red rooibos is trash.

My ratings are for me, so I don’t accidentally buy something that sounds amazing but I’ve already tried and disliked. I struggle a bit with wanting to be “fair” to a tea that other people would probably like, but then my system won’t work!

90-100 A: loved it; would make this a permanent member of my stash
80-89 B: tasty; would pick it up again
70-79 C: good; could grab with a good deal or to try in a different style
60-69 D: okay; would keep in a set but probably would not repurchase on its own
1-59 F: various shades of bad; would not purchase; closer to 1 means may not even drink again if offered.
