Today’s random tea was another Design a Tea creation: pineapple orange oolong.

It was also my first oolong.

I was surprised at the quality of the leaf mixture. There were pieces of pineapple and orange in there. I just expected flavored tea since this was one of the single serve sample things. My husband said that the steeped leaf looked like potpourri.

Anyway, it was nice, not Earth-shattering. I got two nice steeps out of it….or was it three….anyway, the last one (which was either the third or the fourth) was pretty weak. Up until that point they were nice.

And, it got rid of something in my tea basket.

Bio

Mom of two practically grown girls, extremely happily married to a man who is amused by my obsession with tea, and company owner who works from home. Life is good.

Likes/dislikes: I love black teas, especially strong/malty ones. I am ok with flavored teas if the base is strong. I like some whites. I really don’t like any tea that tastes “green” – if I wanted to drink something that tastes like green beans, I would cook some green beans. I am not big on green teas or genmaichas. I am learning to like puerhs.

If we are trading, I have a STRONG aversion to coconut, banana and licorice. I love citrus, vanilla and spice. Not a fan of florals.
