Sipdown no. 5 of 2021 (no. 625 total).
This was a tiny tin, with just enough for about 3 pots of 2 cups each.
Three years ago, I really liked this and remarked on the chocolate/orange flavor. Which is a flavor I really do find enjoyable.
Not so much now. I don’t know whether it’s an age thing or a taste thing. Or maybe it’s just that I have had better orange/chocolate combos? Not sure. Bumping it down.
As an aside, I love that I have all of these prior notes to look back at. It’s very educational about how my own tastes have developed over time.
I would love it if Steepster had an export function that would periodically back up my notes on my hard drive in case something awful happens. It would be horrible to lose 10+ years of notes.

That’s precisely why I write all my notes off the site on a Notetab file, then paste the data into Steepster. I have all my notes in the text file on my HDD, and I have that file backed up in multiple places.
At least we have our feed.rss which works quite well as kind of backup, though it would be good to write a little bit more there and format it somehow, but I am too lazy (and busy) to do that right now.
Yeah, way too late for that now. It would be sad to lose the notes but I have so many other projects I need to get done I cannot see when transferring note manually would ever get done…
Ya, I never had to transfer; I basically moved off an independant tea blog that had no readers to Steepster, and when I did that, I copied my blog posts (again, which I always wrote “offline” first) as my first set of Steepster posts, then just continued the file from there on. I have over 700 notes plus my Profile and some yearly stat keeping stuff all on that one file, ha!
