Popular Tasting Notes

This 3rd steep, 4 min, has released a pleasant vegetal sweetness which now rivals the nutty flavor — Blue Spring, indeed! I do like it. Still, I pine. It seems the lovely floral notes of the Ali Shan (to which I now compare all light oolong) have spoiled me. I yearn for Summer & honeysuckle.

Spot on as usual!

I got a 2 oz. sample from puerhshop.com. Just into the first steeping and it’s a little straw-like and bland, but I’m seeing some potential for future steepings. More later.

Not a love at first sip but it gradually gets better down the cup.

Forgot to log yesterday. Had 2 cups! LOVE IT! Almost out of it…need to reorder a bigger size!

First experience with this one. I like. And I love the canister.

Drinking this tea and listening to BOB DYLAN! Lovely break in the morning!

Another tea bag from France. Green tea with mint fragrance is basically what the name means. Hard to taste the green tea at all, the mint is so strong. The mint seems to be spearmint going off of what my own taste buds tell me. I really enjoy this one for the mint but wish I could taste more of the green. I will be sad when my box runs out as I don’t know where to get this in the states.

Hadn’t had this in awhile. This smells like vanilla tobacco in the tin and I LOVE it. The flavor isn’t quite as strong or noteworthy, but it’s very smooth and manages to combine that earthy oolong taste with sweet, creamy vanilla very well.

warm, nt hot. no sugar. not very aromatic, but nice soothing taste. this may be the perfect tea if one is under the weather

a free sample with a larger order!

Another Cup! Good for a Resteep

Delightful! I’m having this with lunch which happens to be Dr. McDougall’s Vegan White Bean & Pasta Soup – Light Sodium…another good pair

from a colleague… it’s a nice cup with a bit of a bite.

Two more cups after dinner — this time from the new batch. Yep, my tea order arrived yesterday and all is well.

Not really my style. I think it may have been the “malty” part that didn’t agree with me. It tasted okay (not particularly strong), but the smell bugged me.

Very nice light fruit flavor. Added a little honey

I still have to make up my mind about this. It reminds me of cookies from the Greek bakery in my neighborhood. Hmm ….

accidentally oversteeped a ton, but still good
