drank Butter Sencha by DAVIDsTEA
606 tasting notes

Tea #5 (I’m getting behind on my personal challenge here, but I’ll try and catch up. If I can’t, that’s fine. It’s Christmas and I’m trying to get too much done before it comes and I don’t know if I’ll make it. Oh well, I’ll do my best.)

Last time I reviewed this, was five years ago…. and I have a feeling that was the last time I drank this one. I never go to green teas, and I wish I did, because as long as you steep them right, they are really good.
I’m not getting much in the way of butter flavour in this one right now, but the green tea is still very good. A touch of astringency, which may have been my fault, I’m not too sure, but either way, it’s not too much. I did a 3min steep and I think I could have done less and had maybe an even better flavour to it. I’ll try that next time.
Either way, this tea is nice and I’ll enjoy it, but because of how little I go for this one, I’ll probably not restock.

That reminds me — I should drink up the 50 g bag of this that I’ve had since 2017. Good to hear it wasn’t too old for you to enjoy!

I’m a 30-something-year-old writer. I finished my first novel last year, which I’m editing this year amongst the world’s craziness and hoping to some day get it published. I’ve also written several short stories that I’m looking to get published someday

I work as a paginator (I do page layout for our local weekly newspaper) and absolutely love it! I’m also an amateur photographer.
I’m the proud mommy of two sweet little boys.
I’m married to an absolute amazing man who “puts up” with my tea obsession.

I became obsessed with tea a few years after high school.I started with Orange Pekoe double double (milk not cream), and peppermint. Since that time, I’ve really opened up to other kinds of tea and I’ve well… I’ve kind of just went nuts since then.

I’m a loose leaf fan, but if there are no other options, I will drink bagged.

I would have to say my favourite kinds of tea are (in no particular order): black, puerh cakes, herbal and matcha.

Green teas still aren’t a favourite for me, but I’m working on it.

I still can’t get myself to like mate teas, as much as I try, I just don’t like their flavour.

I drink tea every single day. I absolutely love it. I can’t image my life without it.

I don’t log every time I drink a tea as I don’t want to spam everyone with tons of duplicate loggings, but I will log when I have a new tea, which happens on a regular basis and when I do a SIPDOWN! :D
