drank lavender lace by St. James Tearoom
2300 tasting notes

I’m pretty sure this is the same blend I buy from Simpson & Vail, but it’s been a while since I’ve ordered it, so it was nice to have some at St. James. The flavor is a pleasant lavender with a lot of other supporting flavors and complexity. The undercurrent of woody cinnamon is perfect. There’s also a hint of mint. I had a pot of this warm, and it was truly lovely. My friend loved it too, so it may be time to order and split a bag from S&V.

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
