2965 Tasting Notes

drank Lemon and Ginger by Twinings

The wheel of fate has stopped on this blend as one of my new take to work teas, where I suspect its going to do rather well.
I have already had two cups of it, which is two more cups than I’ve had of it in the last two months, and its doing a nice job soothing the baby cough that I currently have, and would like very much if it did not grow into a grown up cough.
Keep on working at it, tea!

And its a sipdown!
Its so kind of my friend to give me tea every Christmas, and this year was the most enjoyable batch of Joy I’ve yet encountered. I still find the blending of teas to be a little strange, but it came out much sweeter this time than in years past, and was easy to drink.
We are rapidly moving out of easy sipdown country. Its almost going to be all teas that I don’t want to sip down from here on out. Don’t want to because I don’t like them, and don’t want to because I love them.
Well, I told myself I was going to do this, and I am.
For now, an easy Sipdown! I suspect I’ll see you again next year, Joy.

drank Bohemian Spice by The Tea Spot

This is a very rich cup of tea. The spices, the orange, they fill up every sip.
The trouble is I’m still not sure about the balance of the flavors. Maybe? The orange and spice play well together some sips, but sometimes the spice bullies the orange into the background, where it fares less well.
Hmmmm. Many more cups of this to come, and to wonder over.

I enjoyed this, but didn’t find it memorable, and probably won’t get it again.

Today is a much better day, in terms of energy levels. I got a good nights sleep, and it makes a world of difference in the day, and my ability to pay attention to the teas I am drinking.
Point in fact, this one. Its never going to be a favorite, but its doing its job well. I still thing the combo of all three teas is not the worlds most ideal, but hey.

drank Santa's Secret by DAVIDsTEA

Back in December I rather think I panicked and bought too much of this.
Oh well. Its not really a huge problem, as I like it, and its good on the days when I want something sweet as my morning tea. It fits that bill rather nicely!

Someday I will have something slightly more articulate to say than- “ugh” and give more thought to the ranking of this blend other than, “it gets the job done”, but that day is not today.

drank Winter Solstice by Mighty Leaf Tea
2965 tasting notes

What is it? I’ve been sleeping like a log over the weekends, and then the work week happens, and I am utterly unable to get a good nights rest.
For example, I went to bed last night and just lay awake, unable to sleep, getting more annoyed the later it got.
Grr.
Tea is our only solution to these mornings.
I’m not as in love with this as once I was. Its still very nice, but it no longer completely rocks my world.

Tea of my morning. This particular cup had a lot of the vanilla and fig flavors, which were great!
Omnom.

I hadn’t heard of this tea before! Sounds like one I’ll eventually have to try.

Backlog from yesterday.
Its a sipdown!
I shall miss this, but I always bring it back in the autumn, so this separation is not forever.
Now, to focus on drinking down other teas.

Bio

I love tea! I confess that I was a hot chocolate lover for most of my life, but recently a switch has gone off in my brain, and suggested that I might just love tea. And I do!
I’m a bit of a novice, but an enthusiastic one, and am happily sipping new varieties all the time.
I love vanilla, fruity, and caramel flavors, and cant wait to try more.
