219 Tasting Notes
Sipdown #3.
Enjoying my last cup of this beautiful tea. It’s so light and floral. Unlike the movie I’m watching – Immortals. Sheesh. I’ve not watched a movie with this much gore in a long time. People literally smashing other people to bits. I guess the one thing that goes with this tea is the beauty that is Henry Cavill.
It’s not living as such that’s important, Theseus. It’s living rightly.
Joined in the Saturday Sample Sipdown suggested by Madeline Alyce on the discussion boards. This is sipdown #1.
The more teas I try, they more discerning I am about flavors I like. This one is a bit of a let down. It probably would be great as a tea latte with milk and sugar, but by itself, it falls flat.
My Den’s Tea green tea sampler arrived yesterday!! This is the first tea I’ve tried. I chose it to start because I love genmaicha.
It’s pretty good. Not as toasty as I was hoping and definitely more green tea flavor than the other 2 genmaichas I’ve tried. I’m going to brew another pot and see how it goes. I think I would prefer the regular genmaicha without the matcha. Overall, this is a good tea, but not my fav.
This is an amazing malty and rich black tea. I love how smooth it is. It’s also very convenient because it’s in a sachet. I took it to my small group gathering this evening and steeped it 3 times. All three were absolutely delicious. Gonna try for a 4th in the morning :) Thank you so much for sharing this LiberTEAS!
101, here we come :)
This tea is excellent and made up for the dud of a tea I had made before it. Speaking of which, anyone want 2 or so ounces of Buckingham Palace Garden Party?? It may be the first tea that I dump in a trashcan.
Back to this wonderful oolong. This is an emergency purse tea that I carry just in case I need a tea while I’m out. YUM!
Just finished reading Sense & Sensibility this weekend. In celebration, I am enjoying a good cuppa and watching the delightful film adaptation with Emma Thompson & Hugh Grant.
Glad you liked this one!
