drank Ripe Mango Oolong by Lupicia
775 tasting notes

I opened my teas and pondered what to have on this lovely afternoon I get to sit inside and study deuterostomes. I opened the bag for this one, not expecting much, and the scent wafting out just seemed right.

I really need to be in the proper mood for an oolong, particularly a green oolong. The mango flavour never ceases to amaze me with Lupicia. They are just great with these delicate flavours. I love their pineapple oolong as well. But back to mango – the mango is coming through clearly with the green oolong flavour ever so slightly less, which is perfect for me.

A few of my favourite things: animals, the ocean, science (I’m currently doing my MSc in biology), travel, all things summer, and of course – tea!

I love chatting biology, so feel free to ask me about what I study or follow my instagram @biologistcourtney!

I love black teas and this is what I’m usually drinking. I pretty well always drink my tea without anything added.

I’m also fond of herbals, oolongs, and subtly flavoured greens. Whites are also enjoyable, and I’m always looking for a replacement for my all-time favourite Butiki’s White Rhino.

Pu’erhs, rooibos (specifically red, I’m more open to green), honeybush, and matés are not my favourite. I tend to avoid them altogether unless others find them so amazing they shouldn’t be missed.

Likes:
Creaminess, toffee, cacao (true dark chocolate flavour), coconut (true coconut flavour), and rhubarb. I’m open to flavoured teas but they can’t be cloying or fake/candy like.

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, bergamot, flowers (rose and jasmine), hibiscus is hit and miss.
