drank Lychee by Harney & Sons
9 tasting notes

Sipdown because I iced a big jug to leave in the fridge for later weeee. I’m also trying to get rid of a lot of my teas so I can splurge on the new ones I like all at once ;)

When I first got this tea, I actually thought it was going to be a white tea or something herbal-y but surprise surprise it was actually a black fruit blend! Which is pretty cool and I must say that it’s definitely done very well.

Now I will admit I’ve never tried an actual lychee fruit mainly because I’ve never had the opportunity, and I have no idea how you would eat one of those spiky things anyways! But I have tried multiple lychee juices which were pretty good, and that’s kind of what indicated to me that i would enjoy this tea better if it was iced because I didn’t quite like the after taste of it when brewed hot. But it was very smooth and very floral almost – it’s like I was tasting roses!

Anyways, midterms were yesterday so I’m finally done [insert big sigh of relief here] and the weather is finally getting nice out so i’m sitting in my backyard watching Game of Thrones, making GIFs and drinking tea so I’d say life is pretty great right now ;)

I need to stop making my logs so long
I need to find some time to sit down and add all my teas into my cupboard. Totally digging Steepster so far!

You have no idea how much/many (?) lychee(s?/ lychee fruits) I ate when I visited the Philippines.
Grammar ugh. My brain is fried okay. I’ve been doing freakin finance problems for a week straight so I’m allowed to be a mess

awoogah

I’ve heard lychees (?) are delicious so I’m kind of jealous haha. BUT HOW DID THE FINANCE MIDTERM GO THOUGH ?!

SO EASY OKAY.
Like 49/50 questions took me a good 40 minutes and everything was pretty straight forward. That last question though. I’ve never seen a problem like that and it took me like 30 minutes to narrow it down from 4 possible answers to 3 and I was getting so annoyed aaand yeah I made an educated guess :)
Hoping for an A, but expecting nothing less than a B :)

Why hello there, the name’s Flora!

I watch a lot of TV, read a lot of books, and cry about my feelings for all of the above. I live way up North in the land of maple syrup and igloos- but don’t worry, we still get internet access up here ;)

I have no idea what I’m doing.

Anything with caffeine is normally my cup of tea, though I love trying out new blends and surprising myself with my changing tastes!

When I was younger, I started off drinking sips of my mum’s Orange Pekoe when she would look the other way. Then it progressed to a very milky full cup of this same tea on special occasions as it was all we ever had in the house. Soon that one cup became multiple cups, and before you knew it I was discovering loose leaf and excitedly watching the teas expand and uncurl within the little kitchen strainer ball. Today? Well, it’s not a full day without a cuppa (or two or three!)
