2201 tasting notes

I recently got a sample of this tea thanks to ToiToi! I brewed up a pot this morning and I definitely enjoyed it.

Caramel, honey and fruits makes it a bit like Tower of London, and it definitely reminds me a bit of that, but with slightly more fruit and less caramel/honey. Those are still very present, but the fruit is so super strong that it becomes the predominant note. I would say primarily red fruits… Berries, cherries, but with more sweetness and less tartness than usual in red fruits blends. It’s pretty candy-ish, which I can see how that would be off-putting to some people, but I enjoyed it nonetheless and will happily drink the rest of my sample up.

Bio

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.

In my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.

Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: Mind-blowingly good, just right for my palate, and teas that just take me to a happy place.
89-86: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they’re not quite as spectacular as the top category
85-80: Pretty tasty teas that I enjoy well enough, but definitely won’t rebuy when I run out.
79-70: Teas that I would probably drink again, but only if there were no preferrable options.
69-50: Teas that I don’t really enjoy all that much and wouldn’t drink another cup of.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.
Unrated: Usually I feel unqualified to rate these teas because they are types of teas that I tend to not like in general. Sometimes user error or tea brewed under poor conditions.
