514 Tasting Notes

Ok, here goes on this one. .. .

Its good, really good! But I cant place the flavors at all. It doesn’t really taste like Ginger Ale to me, but it does have notes of ginger in it. .But since its a white tea, I’m enjoying it regardless. . .

Almost reminds me of a gin and tonic without the carbonation. .

Yum!

The gin and tonic taste almost sounds like more what I need at this moment than a ginger ale. I’m glad the tea is really good as I got two pouches! Too bad it doesn’t really taste like a ginger ale. I wonder if sweetner would help?

Just rec’d this as a sample in my order and I’m just not sure about it. I really can’t decide whether I like it or not. . .From the other reviews on this one, I think I agree that the spices kind of throw you a bit. . its still good and I’m really glad I was able to try it. . .

But I think its time to try the next one. . . .Ginger Ale!

Kristen

ooo I am anxious to read the reviews on the ginger ale! I didn’t get it yet as I spent my allotment on the pound of choc pb cup blend but might have to cave after I read some of the reviews!

Maybe its just my taste buds being off today, who knows, but I didn’t feel the love with this one like everybody else did. So, I’m going to hold off a few days and try again then rate it. . It does smell soo very good. Here’s to trying again next week!

I’m not sure if you like to add milk to your tea, but I enjoyed this one with milk for a banana creme pie flavor.

Nichole/CuppaGeek

I’m not a huge fan of adding milk to my tea but I’ll def try it, Good idea!

teawing

I would personally find it difficult to enjoy anything with the word “fart” in the title…but thats just me!

Oh yumma-yumma-yumma! Delish, but going away into the tea cupboard until we have 70 degree days. Feels a bit odd drinking this with huge snowdrifts outside!

I’m not tasting any raspberry in this at all. Just a great combo of watermelon and green tea. (Who would have thought that would be so good)

Thanks Meghann for this one.

Another delish blend by Frank!

Meghann M

This is my favorite of Frank’s green tea blends. No raspberry apparent for me either. It makes one killer iced tea. I’d bet it would be good as a MarTeani too!

YUMMMY!!! I can’t wait to drink this while reading a Jane Austen novel. The blackberries and vanilla are taking center stage on this one. Hmmmm. Soooo good!!!

Another fab Valentine’s Day Present. So yummy!

Uniquity

It sounds SO GOOD!

Nichole/CuppaGeek

Oh its delish!!! I screwed up and over steeped it twice yesterday. . Big Time. I’m now sad I wasted to servings of this. I’ll def be buying again. I think this will be added to my morning routine. . . .

TeaEqualsBliss

I’ll have to look into this one…how did you find it?

Nichole/CuppaGeek

I’m a huge Jane Austen fan (funny- I go from one extreme to the other, Horror Genre to Jane Austen). . . and my best friend picked it up for me for V-Day.

Uniquity

I’m still in awe. There is only one more tea that I am supposed to buy for the next while, as the beau and I have imposed a ban. Ordering is so dangerous! But…I want this. Maybe someone will want to give me a VDay gift, lol.

Nichole/CuppaGeek

Oh i’ve tried to ban myself several times. . . . .then I’m like I have to have this!!!

ambientqueenie

Ooo, thanks for the love! I am the blender (blendee?) who made this blend (thanks to Adagio), and I’m so glad it turned out right. It makes my day to hear that other Jane Austenites are fans of the “family!”

I mean, uh. There is no formal Jane Austenite organization. Nope. No way.

Nichole/CuppaGeek

I’m re-ordering more today! I went thru the whole bag in less than a week!! :)

Nichole/CuppaGeek

Oh and I’ve bought at least 4 of your blends btw! :) So yummers!

ambientqueenie

Hooray! I shall inform my taste buds that they have helped other taste buds, and then dangle a taste bud medal in front of them. :)

Love the movies (i’m a huge horror nut) and now I have the perfect horror tea to watch with my movies!

JacquelineM

I was always a huge horror scardey cat until I saw the Nightmare on Elm Street movies from the 1980s – Freddy is so campy and hysterically funny!

TeaEqualsBliss

OMG! You bought MY blend! :) Cool!!!!! I haven’t even bought this one! LOL

Nichole/CuppaGeek

It was a Valentine’s Gift. And its awesome! I still have your addy, I’ll send you some! And I didn’t even know it was your blend until I looked it up on Adagio. Crazy!!

TeaEqualsBliss

teehee! That’s CRAZY! :) Thanks!!!! I need to reorder some stuff – I have like $60 to use! LOL

Bio

Oh where to begin. Its been a crazy couple years. My life has completely been turned upside down but I’m very happy where I landed. I’m finally in a great place-Living with an amazing guy and his hilarious yet full of attitude twin teenage boys, and my two adorable kiddos in Central Illinois and there is no other place I’d want to be.

Now on to the tea: I love all kinds. I’m not a huge fan of red rooibos but I love green rooibos. Beyond that, I’ll try everything once or twice to make sure I didn’t bumble up the steepings. If you are interested in something from me, just holler at me. I’m always up for trying new tea blends or sharing with others!
