911 Tasting Notes

(6g/12oz/3min/175) The ginger isn’t too strong at all – it just adds a hint of flavor that almost covers up the soybean/cooked veggie-like flavor I tend to associate with white teas. Overall a nice mild tea that is enjoyable but I don’t think likable enough that I’ll get more. But if I liked white tea more, I can see how I would like this one more.

Couldn’t pick out the flavors but they did blend nicely and have a good profile – not flat or bland.

drank Mint Chocolate by Adagio Teas

Sad to find that this is no longer on the Adagio site. :( It’s really good! Just the perfect amount of mint to make it not too overpowering but still have a touch of mint flavor.

Really yummy. Very fruity and the flavors blended well so that there was no real distinctive standout flavor, just a good tropical-ish flavor that made me think of slushy drinks with paper umbrellas.

Brewed for 3mins, though might have been better with 2. Initial taste is the mint with that herbal aftertaste I always get with mint tea that has no sugar. But the white monkey flavor definitely ends it. And as it cools the white monkey seems stronger. Nice.

Very nicely peachy. The tea flavor is nice and mild and more of an end taste. S’nice.

I admit, I’m not a big herbal fan. The strong red color scared me enough to put in a little sugar. But it still tastes like Theraflu to me. I think herbals and I just don’t get along.

Pretty much a mellower masala chai. Very rich though. Might be a little too rich for me this morning. But good. Brewed it “normally” today and can’t help but wonder how it would be if I made it like I normally do chai. Might be too sweet.

drank The Scientist by Adagio Teas

I suspect I used way too much leaf but the green in it threw me off. But it turned out really surprisingly nice when sugar and milk are added. Is a great EG variation. Reminds me of perhaps Czar Nicholas I think. Or something similar. The green in with the black still throws me off though, but good flavor. Might actually have to get a full size of this one.

I’m pleasantly surprised by this one. Usually bottled teas are just a little… meh. Adagio’s black tea and this one buck the trend. Yum!

I’m trying to be a better tea logger and actually post semi-regularly again! I’ve let my tea tasting senses become too complacent – it’s time for some focused and attentive tea drinking!

Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.

1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
