Black tea and maple blended perfectly together. Made it through just one steep so I’m not gonna rate it yet. However… all the maple teas I’ve had so far haven’t ever really captured the essence of what I imagine a maple tea to be, or even to create a true maple flavour that balances with the tea. This tea? Balance, flavour, and depth! I’m impressed.

Is this another one from the tea fest? I am not familiar with this blender.

You had me at maple. I’m adding this to my wishlist. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Evol Ving Ness

They also have a nice lineup of other things. Thanks for bringing them to my attention. I see an order in my future.

@Evol – yes, Canadian! I should drink it while watching the Olympics :P
They might be at the next tea guild meeting. There was one blend I thought about asking her to bring.

Evol Ving Ness

ooooh, which blend was that?

Evol Ving Ness

And do they sell tea at the meetings or just sample?

Indigobloom

This one. I sampled it at the festival. Juicy peach notes! https://www.mistymountaintea.com/collections/white-tea/products/moon-rabbit

Indigobloom

They don’t really sell, I just knew that they would sell out of that one and so told her that I really wanted it… yet didn’t want to cost them a sale. So if they could bring it to the next meeting, I’d grab it then

Indigobloom

That said, I don’t think it would be trouble to add anything on!

Evol Ving Ness

Thank you. This is something I would really like to support.

Bio

Let’s see… I’m a tea and workout fanatic, I work in HR, and most of my friends consider me to be an egg. White on the outside, Asian on the inside :)
-from philosophy to food, I love it all
Otherwise, what you see is what you get! I can be very straightforward and yet shy.

Also, I’ve started taking tea sommelier classes and it is an absolute blast! Well, so far I’ve only finished the first out of eight courses, but I am really looking forward to the next one.

Anyhow, if your curious as to how I rate things, this is how I work…

0-25
Like eating dirt, or some other unsanitary indelicacy that mentioning in my profile here would likely get me banned.
I don’t think I’ve found cause to banish a tea to the wasteland yet though so who knows what it’d inspire ;P

25-50
You know that expression “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater”? I imagine drinking that water would be terrible enough to warrant this rating!
I’d never make my enemy drink this, but perhaps I’d throw it at them. Good thing I don’t have any enemies!

50-70
This is “tea”?? I tried finishing the cup… but my body rejected it. There may be others who enjoy this tea, but it’s beyond me!

70-80
I tried liking it, and I can almost get there! I certainly don’t hate it, but something is holding me back. Allergies? Men in white suits? who knows… certainly not me!

80-90
Lovely tea! Not my all time fave but close. I likely wouldn’t repurchase, but may decide to based on many factors: price, accessibility, whether it fills a “tea gap”, medicinal applications, and how often I crave it.
Every once in awhile I find the sweet spot that bumps these up to 90+. Those are the days I need to buy a lotto ticket!

90-95
Sweet Camellia! this is realllly good tea! Don’t talk to me until I’ve finished my cup…

95-100
Tea of the gods. I would do anything to get my hands on more of this liquid gold!
