132 Tasting Notes

This is my ALL TIME favorite tea! I have tried other jasmine pearls but none ever compared the ones I get at Teavana. They are loud with the jasmine flavor which is ok by me (the more the better) and the green tea is very smooth, as if silk is gliding over my tongue. The other thing I love about this tea is that it blends well with other fruit teas…can it get any bettet than this?!

This is a very pleasent bagged tea for me and it is not like most “Earl Grey” teas. This tea is much more lighter in taste and has a nice floral note to accompany the bergamot and other citrusy notes. I add a bit of sugar to mine and it really makes the flavors pop! Also, you can steep this tea and forget about it and still come back to a great cup of tea. It is my go to at work tea!

Bio

I am a tea enthusiast who is always looking to try a new tea, but my all time favorite is jasmine pearls…or anything with jasmine in it really. I also am a sushi fanatic and simply can’t live without it. Outside of my fanatasy world of all things tea and sushi I am an executive assistant, mother of 2 and personal taxi/maid and chef service for my little family.

But back to the tea!

I love Jasmine Pearls, just about any White Tea and then we have Pu-erh coming in last as my top three.

However, I still enjoy a good Earl Grey tea, the more bergamot the better! I have a fond place in my heart for Matcha, especially iced Matcha Lattes. Flavored green teas are always fun, but I tend to stay away from the overly grassy tasting ones… they always remind me of a wheatgrass shot!

It takes a special black tea to really win me over, for me I find that they all taste too much alike or tend to be too bitter at times; I think I am more so bored with them.

Oolongs are fairly new to me and I am finding that these are really good and they will probably end up making it as one of my top contenders!

Pu-erh I have yet to try; I am very curious, but a bit scared to try it… something about being aged in a cave just frightens me a bit, but I would like to try one in the very near future :-) Update – I have tried a few pu-erhs and I can’t get enough of them! While they are definitely an acquired taste they are lovely! This has now taken over rooibos in my top 3 teas of choice!
