Really enjoying this cup! I’m definitely tasting the cinnamon more this time around, particularly as the cup cools. Really nice blueberry flavor.

drank Almond Tea by Culinary Teas
1789 tasting notes

Culinary Teas had a 25% off sale, so I purchased a few teas that I had been interested in. I love almond flavored things, and I already have an almond green tea that I love. But, I have been search for an almond black. This is not it. This is not very good at all.Truthfully, I can’t taste much flavoring at all. The black base is really muddled and cheap tasting.

I’m actually drinking lot 892….but close enough. It’s a nice unfrosted oolong. A bit of a floral/lilac flavor. A bit of a buttery vegetable thing going on as well. Fine, but not particularly memorable.

I drank this a couple days ago and cannot remember a single thing about it. Need to revisit.

I so desperately want to love this tea. The ingredients are chunky and beautiful (particularly the big slices of persimmon). It also smells amazing- like spiced autumn fruits. But, the flavor is really, really lacking. The charcoal roast on the oolong is so strong that I can’t taste any of the other flavors, even cinnamon (which smells quite strong in this blend). I wish a different base tea was used, as this tea has so much potential.

This is one of my favorite mint teas. While I generally reserve them for winter time, this just sounded so nice today. Such a nice balance of fresh mint, and dark cocoa.

I thought I had logged this before, particularly since I’m down to 1 remaining cup. Oh, well.

I really enjoy this one, and would consider purchasing it again. It’s a subtle orange blossom with a bit more of a pronounced lavender flavor. It’s a bit creamy and custardy, which words really nicely with the floral flavors.

Flavors: Creamy, Custard, Floral, Lavender, Orange Blossom

Not really a true sipdown, as I’m putting this in my swap/giveaway pile. I know I mentioned this in a previous tasting note- but it really smells like mustard. Tastes kind of like mustard, but mostly an herbal minty jasmine. I was enjoying it, until I started tasting intense stevia, that also started giving me a headache. So, no more Mr. Frosty for me.

This is a very strange tea and honestly I am glad I have finished it earlier!

My first tasting note in quite a few days. Between the insanely hot weather and super busy work schedule, I just haven’t really been drinking tea. I’m looking forward to the weather getting cooler and getting back into my 5-10 cups/day.
As for the tea- it’s absolutely delicious! Really loving the smoky base against the sweet caramelized flavor going on. Not really getting cinnamon or butter, but I’m not missing those flavors, as what is happening is delicious.

Flavors: Caramel, Smoke, Sweet

This is another of my all time favourite 52teas blends. I am SO happy to have it back.
