drank Orchid Oolong (Imperial Republic) by The Republic of Tea
911 tasting notes

I can’t believe how long I’ve had this… no wonder the leaves don’t look as pretty anymore. Probably a little softer than I’d prefer but I didn’t think to increase the leaf since I didn’t realize it was as old as it is.

Again, this is soft. Light and floral but not perfume/flowery. More like… a silk oolong lite. That same high sweetness, just not as intense. This isn’t something I need in my cupboard all the time, but once this little tin goes away, I’m sure I’ll eventually pick up more.

ETA: You know, for something ‘imperial’, the expanded leaves sure look liked they’ve been chewed on.

I’m trying to be a better tea logger and actually post semi-regularly again! I’ve let my tea tasting senses become too complacent – it’s time for some focused and attentive tea drinking!

Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.

1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
