Maddy Barone drank Spiced Blood Orange by Adagio Teas

810 tasting notes

Adagio Advent Calendar Day ? (I’ve lost track)

This one was from several night ago. Steepster has been giving me fits, being soooo slllooooww and then freezing before crashing.

This tea sounded so good. Spiced Blood Orange. What’s not to like? Well, the crazy punch of hibiscus, for one thing. Yowza. Maybe my pouch just ended up with a disproportionate amount of hibiscus, but that ws all I could really taste. I did not finish the cup, and this will certainly not be a re-order for me. It sadly ruined this tea for me.

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
