Gorreana

Revisiting this one today.

Here’s my full-length review of it: http://sororiteasisters.com/2011/06/22/broken-leaf-from-gorreana-tea/

A very pleasant tea.

Having a cup of this with my ginger honey crystals. My taste buds are coming back, because I can taste the tea beyond the strong flavor of ginger. Nice.

Back when my taste buds were working properly, I wrote this review: http://sororiteasisters.com/2011/06/22/broken-leaf-from-gorreana-tea/

Enjoying this one today – it is so pleasant. I just got finished writing my review for it, it should publish in a few days on the SororiTea Sisters blog. This is a great every day kind of tea, this is what every day tea should taste like (rather than that stuff in the yellow, red and white box).

This is very nice. It is smooth and mild in flavor, with a delicious sweetness. Slightly malty. I like!

backlogging from last week…

had 3 cups earlier today…backlogging…satisfying. See previous notes :)

Not as strong today…apparently I had another stash of this tho! LOL Oops!

Started my day with 2 cups of this…see previous notes…a bit on the lighter side this morning, tho :)

having a cup before sending the rest in a mini swap…LOVE this! See previous notes…

Started my day with this today…see previous notes :)

Bakey – Bready – YUM! Had two cups of this so far today! See previous reviews :)

This is tasty! I’m really enjoying the Gorreana offerings lately!

This is semi-malty yet smooth…a nice medium strength black! Good for mid mornings or afternoons! Sweeter ending :)

Yup! Yup! Yup! More tea please! MORE!!!!! Helps me write…helps me write…jitters…perhaps I should start in with the matcha! LOL

One last cuppa before sending the rest to WONKS :)

Brisk! Fresh & Clean! Crisp! Airy! JUICY for a black! I like it VERY MUCH!!!!

Grew up drinking Gorreana teas. My favorite and easy for me to get because my parents live on the island it is grown.

I grew up drinking this tea. My parents are from the island this is grown and I have seen the plantation many times. When little I would drink a big bowl of this with milk in it. So good. I compare all others to this tea.

My parents live on St Michaels in the Azores Islands where this tea is grown. Whenever I visit I go see this plantation. Love the green tea it is awesome quality.

The rest via swaps! Be on the look-out!!

I’m going to have a full length review at 6am EST tomorrow at Sororitea Sisters. This is one I am spending some time with today and really surprised me.

Heads-up:
perfumy
slightly chewy for a green…interesting.
slightly vegetal, slightly herbal

YUM!

Also having one last cup of this before passing the rest along in a swap…

2 cups to start my day! See previous notes :)

Backlogging two cups from earlier today…see other notes ;)

Backlogging from last week…see previous notes :)

There is a light orange hint to it or it could just be messing with my mind! Regardless I do like this one! :)

It’s semi-bold, semi-mouth-watering, and airy. Slightly bitter but in a good way…or maybe astringent would be a better word, but, regardless it’s tasty and different than I expected!
