drank Lime Jello Salad Green Tea by 52teas
15061 tasting notes

Cold brew of this today for my 52 tea of the day – still trying to manage to get a cup in every day when I can. I need milk from the store so that I can have the last of my caramel pumpkin cheesecake tomorrow. …or Monday. I have another sil cup or so left of this one and its been good to me so no complaints here. I prefer Della Terra’s lime chiffon, but this one is still super tasty :) just not always available. Heh

Is Lime Chiffon really that good? Because I LOVE this one. The rooibos in LC has been scaring me off.

Sil

i can send you a sample. I prefer orange and cream but i do like lime and lemon chiffon – the lime being a wee bit tastier imo.

Fjellrev

Don’t worry about it! I could always get a sample pack next time I order.

drank Chocolate Flake Tea by Teapigs

Sipdown! (211) I brought home a few of my teabags from work since i hadn’t been drinking them. This was one of the teas. Now that i’ve had a vast number of other teas, this one doesn’t taste nearly as good as it did previously. Ah well…the search continues for my chocolate tea once my MF tea is gone.

SIPDOWN! I’m sad to see this one go as it’s a really nice tea from Red Blossom. Brewed the last of it cold brew, which is where i finally landed with this tea as being my favourite! I’l for sure be checking out more of redbloosom’s teas as i’ve enjoyed the few that i’ve tried quite a bunch.

drank Lychee by Lupicia
15061 tasting notes

Sipdown! Not a fan of this one. I prefer the limited edition blend lupicia pulled together that tastes like lychee. that one is delicious and juicy. this one? it’s just not a good time. I’m not a fan of the base and the flavouring seems off.

drank The Emperor's Pu-Erh by Della Terra Teas

This one smells interesting. I wasn’t sure how big a fan of it i’d be. i think i need to have this again before i decide on a final rating. there’s almost too much going on here. at least though, the tea comes through well enough.

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 0 sec

drank Key Lime Pie by Della Terra Teas
15061 tasting notes

I dropped the temperature on this one and it’s better. I think i’ll try this next as a cold brew. It’s got a creamy lime taste to it, but there’s still a bitterness to it that i don’t like.

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 3 min, 0 sec

drank Mango by The Boston Tea Company
15061 tasting notes

teabag sipdown! (214) another one from the lovely CHAroma! This is actually a pretty darn tasty teabag :) I wish i had another bag to try this as a cold brew since hot it’s got a particularly decent mango flavour without having to be a herbal/fruit blend.

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 3 min, 0 sec

Success! Glad you enjoyed it!

drank Earl Grey by The Boston Tea Company
15061 tasting notes

teabag sidpdown! no. just no. so while there are few people out there who think that i’m gradually going to cover over to the dark side and find love and happiness in an early grey – this is a tea to remind me of why i hate earl greys lol Thanks for the taste CHAroma! While i dislike this a lot (floral much?!?) i still am happy to cross another one off my list :)

CHAroma

Oops, LOL! Sorry I gave you one that you hate.

Sil

Haha no way! It’s good to know where my limits are with EG’s. even if I’d hated every single tea you sent, which I didn’t, it still would be a success to me. I love sharing tea and finding out what I like and don’t like :)

drank Darjeeling #1 by thepuriTea
15061 tasting notes

Another Darjeeling for the day, though it’s not really helping with my sipdowns :) This is another tasty cup, brought to me by my lovely tea sister Terriharplady! One of the many joint purchases we’ve made together :)

This is closer to a black tea that i expect from darjeelings. It’s got a little boldness, a side of sweetness and a dash of delicious! :)

Terri HarpLady

I need to drink up some of my Darjeelings too. Maybe I’ll have a cup now, LOL.

This darjeeling is a sweet, fresh tasting darjeeling. It tastes less like a “black” than it does a green/white tea, which i normally wouldn’t enjoy but with this tea, i do. The aroma of this one is sweet. Even the taste of this one is a sweeter kinda of taste.

Bio

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
