193 Tasting Notes
Thanks to KeenTeaThyme for allowing me to try this blend! I am not a big lapsang fan but I was so intrigued by the name of this tea that I wanted to try it despite the lapsang issues I have. I love the marshmallow and wish there was more of it! It was very nice to try and for those who enjoy lapsang I would recommend this blend!
Wow this is amazing! I am getting an orange/apple cinnamon-y bake-y taste. This is a comforting cup. Very soothing, the orange, apple and cinnamon go very nicely together and you can still taste some buttery notes to the sencha. I think I want more of this…hopefully it won’t sell out till my next payday!!!!
I wonder if Frank would do a lay a way for me till next Wednesday LOL!!!
Preparation
Enjoyed a cup of this today at work… unfortunately I am not having any more tea for at least this evening. :( Tea is reeking havoc with staining my pearly whites but I am lucky enough to work in a dental office and am in process of whitening my teeth. At least I can keep on with my habit and still maintain WHITE teeth!!
I asked for a sample of this tea with my last order from Den’s. I was excited to try it. I am in love with the pineapple sencha and just ordered a pound of it.
The orange is nice but for some reason I was getting more of a muted orange taste not a real juicy orange taste like I was expecting. It is still nice but I think I will stick with my favorite-the pineapple sencha!
Took a quick break from work today and stopped at my mom’s and enjoyed a cup of this with a homemade cocoa muffin (made using healthy ingredients-mostly natural things like whole wheat flour, dark cocoa, and agave nectar, I am not sure of the rest of the ingredients). The tea and the cocoa muffin were amazing!!!!!
I have to admit, the more I hear about this tea, the more I’m tempted to buy some to try! :)
I normally dislike lapsang too – but I needed to make amends with it in order to make this work. It took some blending, but less (lapsang) is best. ;)
