My sample box came today, and this is the first sample I tried. There is a nice mild nutty scent. I also get some vegetal notes. The flavour is sweet with a bit of chestnut. It is a subtle flavour, but it goes well with my almond cookie.

Flavors: Chestnut, Green, Nutty, Vegetal

Computer, green tea, hot.

Captain’s tea log.

Part of a past tea sampler. This tea has a roasted/ nice nutty scent. The flavour is mostly toasted rice, with some other grain notes. It makes me think of the autumn or the woods.

Very glad I was able to try some green teas again.

End log.

Flavors: Grain, Nutty, Roasted Nuts, Toasted Rice, Toasty

Another of my new samples. It has a very nice scent of yams and stonefruits, with some honey notes. There is a lovely sweet yam and apricot flavour.

Overall, it is very good. Goes well with Pokemon too.

Playing farming simulation games makes me want tea. At the moment, it is Skytree Village. So far, I’m enjoying fishing. (Spring is a pretty season.)

Anyway, this smells really good. There is a scent of almonds and cranberries. The flavour is also cranberry and almond, with mild chocolate notes. Makes a good winter tea.

Flavors: Almond, Chocolate, Cranberry, Nuts

Not sure yet. You can in the Story of Seasons games though.

One of my newest samples. It looked interesting.

There is a very nice cream, and lavender scent. The flavour is creamy vanilla, which is really good with the lavender and bergamot. Very glad I finally tried some.

Tea for wizards who like earl grey, so I HAD to try it. The scent very nice and mostly bergamot. There is also a little chocolate, and berry. Blackberry, chocolate, and earl grey make for a very nice flavour. Pairs well with certain fantasy books.

Flavors: Bergamot, Berry, Blackberry, Chocolate, Cocoa, Cream

The Autumn Moon (aka Harvest Moon) is today. So I got some of this tea at the Adagio store in Chicago before my train. It smells fantastic. There is a scent of creamy citrus, with a little coconut. The flavour is cream and bergamot, with mellow coconut notes.

Very glad I was finally able to try this.

Flavors: Bergamot, Citrus, Coconut, Cream, Creamy

This smelled pretty good in the store, like a nice blend of spices. The scent when brewed is mildly cinnamon and a little chocolate. There is a spice flavour, but I don’t really get anything s’mores. Not bad, but a little disappointing.

Flavors: Chocolate, Cinnamon, Spices

I tried this iced the other day and was pleasantly surprised! I thought it tasted very s’more-like.

Oh, I’ll try iced then.
