drank Ma Passion by Nina's Paris
871 tasting notes

I have been drinking this one lots through yesterday and today.

OK so I have to write a new tasting note as my other one is not going to make much sense anymore. Well really I think the other note is accurate but maybe just not the right wording.

So I contacted Laurent from Nina’s Paris and there were mistakes on Steepster and on my package of tea I had at home. The real ingredients are black tea, corn flowers, sunflowers and passionfruit flavour. It is now corrected on steepster.

Yesterday I thought there was a sweet citrus, grapefruit and orange flavour without the tartness. This citrus taste is still there but now I recognize it as passionfruit. I can still taste the flower petals. They dampen the fruity taste a bit. And also add a bit of pastry type flavour. I still find the black tea base to be mild.

So I am not changing much, rating is still the same, just using the right words this time…passionfruit instead of grapefruit :P

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
