Indigobloom drank Jungle Ju Ju by DAVIDsTEA

1759 tasting notes

Well, I made tea with my kettle again today! it was better this time. Plastic is still present in the taste but no more than in bottled water. I hope I don’t get cancer from drinking it! ha.
Now on to the actual tea: [with a few swirls of “light” agave]
Well, I didn’t get to drink any til it was mostly cold so I can’t really give a full review. What I did have was pretty tasty, and perked me right up. A bit thick, fruity and sweet but that’s what I get for eyeballing the parameters!
So I’ll leave the rating as is for now. This one gets extra points for all that extra caffeine. Mmmm.
Oh and I just found out… one of my jobs is taking me on 5 days per week!! still through a temp agency, but it brings me closer to my goal! :)
the only bad part is that I have no access to Steepster lol

Monsters! I’ll missing seeing you here as often, but I guess gainful employment is as good an excuse Steepster absence as any :) Good luck you!

Profile

Bio

Let’s see… I’m a tea and workout fanatic, I work in HR, and most of my friends consider me to be an egg. White on the outside, Asian on the inside :)
-from philosophy to food, I love it all
Otherwise, what you see is what you get! I can be very straightforward and yet shy.

Also, I’ve started taking tea sommelier classes and it is an absolute blast! Well, so far I’ve only finished the first out of eight courses, but I am really looking forward to the next one.

Anyhow, if your curious as to how I rate things, this is how I work…

0-25
Like eating dirt, or some other unsanitary indelicacy that mentioning in my profile here would likely get me banned.
I don’t think I’ve found cause to banish a tea to the wasteland yet though so who knows what it’d inspire ;P

25-50
You know that expression “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater”? I imagine drinking that water would be terrible enough to warrant this rating!
I’d never make my enemy drink this, but perhaps I’d throw it at them. Good thing I don’t have any enemies!

50-70
This is “tea”?? I tried finishing the cup… but my body rejected it. There may be others who enjoy this tea, but it’s beyond me!

70-80
I tried liking it, and I can almost get there! I certainly don’t hate it, but something is holding me back. Allergies? Men in white suits? who knows… certainly not me!

80-90
Lovely tea! Not my all time fave but close. I likely wouldn’t repurchase, but may decide to based on many factors: price, accessibility, whether it fills a “tea gap”, medicinal applications, and how often I crave it.
Every once in awhile I find the sweet spot that bumps these up to 90+. Those are the days I need to buy a lotto ticket!

90-95
Sweet Camellia! this is realllly good tea! Don’t talk to me until I’ve finished my cup…

95-100
Tea of the gods. I would do anything to get my hands on more of this liquid gold!
