This is a well balanced chai I got with a breakfast burrito in a coffee shop. Cinnamon, clove, cardamom are all there, with ginger lurking in the background. Not a bad cuppa, but nothing I need to revisit. Breakfast burrito was excellent and I’m ready to drive all day, well maybe I’ll drink some more tea along the way …

I brewed this a few days ago and stuck the second steep in the fridge. Its as lavender and creamy cold as it is hot, such a nice treat and I hope it never disappears from my cupboard.

This is just ok, peachy, juicy, and light, but not very interesting. I’m not a big fan of peach or prickly pear teas, so I’m not surprised. I’ll add it to the next TTB.

Well the fall OBTC subscription box is in the mail I best be getting around to writing tea notes for the summer box! This one is yummy pecan pie drowning in hibby tartness. The second steep is a bit toned down on the tart, and the blueberry and cinnamon come through a bit better. This is just ok, I Iike the pecan pie by itself much better

Sometimes their combinations are a little random – I wouldn’t have thought to mix these two!

Sipdown. This is yeasty and bready and malty and slightly sweet. I made the first steep hot and then put the second over ice, and it was just as delicious. Thanks Gmathis for sending this to me!

I brewed this hot and stuck it in the fridge. It’s fruity and buttery with a hint of mint. Is it the morninga I’m thinking is buttery? It’s refreshing and not a whole lot of rose. Thanks for adding it to the box.

Surprisingly easy to drink this creamy, boozy green tea. Some grassy notes underneath, but mostly vanilla cream. Thanks for adding it to the box!

I brewed this teabag twice and put it over ice. A nicely blueberry flavor, though it did seemed watered down. It was refreshing in the heat. Thanks for adding it to the box.

This is buttery, nutty and mapley sweet. A nice change from waffle or pancake tea trying to be syrupy sweet, this one tastes like the real deal. Nice cuppa for a bagged tea. Thanks for adding it to the box!

What a nice chocolate tea. I lost track of how many times it steeped, but it was at least five. Not a hint of astringency or bitterness. I might need more of this just to see how many times it steeps! Thanks for adding it to the box!

Bio

I started drinking more tea about 10 years ago when I found that even my half -caf coffee was making me jittery and then sleepy after the caffeine wore off. While I started out with mostly Teavana, but soon expanded my tea cupboard to include lapsang souchon, pu-erh, Assam, and other strong black teas. I do enjoy oolongs, green, and other teas, as well as a nice tisane for an evening cuppa.
I’m not fond of jasmine or bergamont teas, though I’ll try anything once.
I am an avid traveler, hiker, soccer player/watcher.
I love trying new tea in new places, if you see something in my cupboard you want to try, hit me up for a swap!
