1724 tasting notes

Sipdown sipdown, sipdown sipdown! That’s sung in the key of Jungle Boogie, btw.

I finally bit the bullet (not sure where that phrase came from), went through my entire cupboard and made a spreadsheet of all my teas! Took a couple hours, but it was kinda fun going through everything. This tea was hidden on the shelf below my cupboard with a little more than a serving left, so I steeped in concentrated and dumped it into a cup full of creamer. I have noticed some creamers giving my teas a slight banana taste, so it seemed like this latte choice would be a good one, but the banana is hard to taste. Does banana + banana cancel each other out? The rooibos flavor is muted nicely, so at least there is that. I can’t tell if the creaminess is banana or soy creamer. It’s an okay evening cup anyways.

Yay spreadsheet!

I feel SO organized! I have 188 teas in my cupboard which was lower than I thought. I almost feel like I could buy more tea! I didn’t count my samples or “get rid of” bag. Some day I’ll start a traveling tea box out of that bag.

My name is Dustin and I like tea.

I’m an added flavor kind of tea fan, but have had a growing appreciation for plain. I want my tea to remind me of cookies and cakes with coconut and almond slices with a hint of chocolate drizzled on top. I want dancing ponies and flying monkeys shooting off fireworks! And no hibiscus. Hibiscus is the devil.
