Just okay. The lemongrass was a bit too strong. I didn’t really taste any strawberry, just hibiscus. May be due to age, but it smelled fine and truthfully isn’t that old.

This wasn’t even in my Steepster cupboard for some reason. This was okay- not my favorite 52Teas genmaicha blend, but still a nice light creamy orange flavored on the genmaicha.

Finished off a 25g bag of the 2019 harvest. This particular year is more tobacco than dark chocolate, though it’s still absolutely delicious.

Another work sipdown. I really enjoyed this at first, but there ended up being too much sugar for my liking. Way, way too sweet for most of the bag.

Finished off a 1oz pouch. Sad day. I have 1 (maybeeee 2) bags left. Really hoping it gets restocked sometime soon because I just love it. It’s such a deep, aromatic jasmine. Combined with the black base? Dreamy.

Really sipping through my work stash of teas. This was fine. Milk oolong and jasmine, balanced pretty evenly. The milk flavor wasn’t my favorite- a bit too intense.

This just wasn’t as good as I remembered. Way too salty, even after I picked some of the salt out. The apple flavor is also quite strong and kind of odd. Maybe it’s because of it’s age, but it was just meh.

Really nice rice oolong. The rice flavor is well-balanced and not overwhelming. The base is green and fresh.

Flavors: Creamy, Green, Rice

Finished off this bag. Really enjoyed it and will likely repurchase at some point.
