1789 Tasting Notes
Catching up on tasting notes from the last few days. This smells lovely! The jasmine is nice and strong, with just a bit of a sweet peach scent peeking through. I found the peach flavor to be barely noticeable, and much too mild. I’ll have to try it again with a bit of sweetener to hopefully bring out more of the peachiness. Still a nice jasmine flavor, though.
I don’t drink straight greens very often, but when I do I want them to taste like this one. Grassy and vegetal, with a rich nuttiness. Catching up on tasting notes from the past few days, so don’t have much to say about this one.

Just a sample simp down…but it still counts! Another tea I finished a few days ago. It was a perfectly nice lavender earl grey, but didn’t really stand out for me. The lavender was really dominant, which I like. But, the lavender used wasn’t my favorite.

I finished this off a few days ago, and don’t have much to add. But, it was tasty and I’m sad to see it go. Considered getting more, but I still have a couple different 52Teas banana blends on hand, and I absolutely do not need to add more to my cupboard.
This is probably my least favorite of the Chroma blends I’ve tried. The goji/elderberry fruitiness is just not working with the heavy spices. The cinnamon, ginger, black peppercorn, and clove are most distinct, with the fruit lingering in the aftertaste. I was hoping to taste the cypress oil, but alas.
Flavors: Berry, Black Pepper, Cinnamon, Ginger, Goji
My favorite Keemun for breakfast!
