drank Coconut Oolong by Zen Tea
306 tasting notes

I put this one in the big thermos to take with me to work today. I couldn’t find the little one I usually bring with me, my co-workers were amused at the size of today’s thermos.

I swear this one is impossible to oversteep- which makes it good for the larger thermos. It was literally brewing all day, and when I got my first cup about 4 hrs later, no bitter tannins to be had. I did however finally find that coconut bakery aroma that everyone else was talking about. The liquor at 4 hrs was a lovely clear maple type of color. It darkened a bit throughout the day, but still never gave off an oversteeped taste.

Preparation

I get easily excited and tend to get into the habit of collecting things I get really really excited about- books, fountain pens, fragrance, tea and any number of things. Mostly I’m just really excitable.

My favorites are oolongs! Also high for me are greens and ripe pu’erh. But I do like most teas and I’ll try most anything at least once. I just don’t like rooibos, smokey, or banana flavored things.

My name is Christina, but there’s also another Christina with a cat as a profile picture, so I go by Flyawaybirdie.

Feel free to drop me a message anytime. I love messages/letters/etc.

NOTE!: My cupboard is not up to date. Not even close. But it does have a bunch of teas I have pretty substantial quantities of, so I put them in there anyways because I’m unlikely to run out soon. Also, if I wrote a note on it and didn’t include a TTB name or a sipdown note, I’m likely to still have some even if it’s not in my cupboard, so feel free to ask if you want to swap!

Steepsterite since 2014. :D
