15082 Tasting Notes
sipdown….not that i’m concerned about that until next weekend since tomorrow i pick up the travelling tea box and tuesday i’ll be getting my american tea room order. so no point in even trying to work on sipdowns until i get those teas in, my swaps out and the travelling teabox out. heh This one hasn’t been too bad, but likely not a reorder.
thank you omgsrsly! I rather enjoyed this one today. I’d see how your brother feels about this one since it’s more readily available than some of the other teas. I can’t remember much about it but there was nothing funny about it that made me NOT want to drink it this morning and i drank it all up! thanks so much for sharing!
today has been a no good very bad day. Door into the face on the bus, elbow smashed on my head on the subway, spilled crap on myself, tripped up stairs, bad news on the work front.
So i drank some tea, wished for more…has a pumpkin scone for breakfast and 3 flavours of gelato for lunch. so there.
Did you find this tea very vanillay? Also, I’m sorry the day was so bad—the good news is that it’s just about over, and hopefully you can rest and feel recharged tomorrow morning. Things have a way of feeling so much worse when you haven’t rested.
this one isn’t bad…but angrboda sent me a vanilla tea that i vastly prefer. But i keep trying them all just in case haha
oooh, pumpkin scone…sigh…I want one of those with a stout malty cup of something for breakfast!
I hope you have an easy going weekend!
I’ve been hoarding my sample from tastybrew but now that my order has arrived with my tea mule, i can finally start drinking this one again! I still love this quite a bit (possibly even more than cinnamon swirl…) so that makes me happy since i picked up 2oz of it heh
mmm yes please and thank you! Last cup of the evening because i got distracted trying to plan vacations. This not only smells delicious but it tastes so very good as well. It’s orange and creamy but it’s also chocolate. I’m not a rooibos hater either so this is darn tasty. Thanks to Cavocorax for this one. I’m a fan!
I’m hoping that i just over steeped this one. It’s got a weird bitter type taste to it that i am NOT a fan of. It smells heavenly! There are some serious grassy notes underlying the flavour as well, rather than blending nicely. I’ll give this one another shot later and pay more close attention to what i’m doing. Thanks to omgsrsly for sending this my way!
OOooooh! what’re you ordering from the American tea Room?
I haven’t found a cherry tea yet that I thought was any good…
i ordered brioche finally – poor tastybrew can stop having to send me samples to tie me over lol as well as 11 other sample sizes and a larger size of the caramel black…never tried it but figure if i don’t love it, lots of ppl like caramel blacks heh
Amy – most of them are pretty much cough syrup. the chocoalte offsets that in this one so it’s not like those types but it’s also not cherry enough
oh! didn’t know they had a caramel black. I should look into that.
I tried teaspot’s chocolate cherry bomb awhile back. It was good, but also not something I’d buy again.
Hmmm. I’ll have to try this one today now that you guys have reminded me of it! Also, it’ll get me closer to a sipdown!
yep..you have enough for 2ish sil sized mugs haha
