drank Full Moon Party by Mariage Frères
2201 tasting notes

I thought that I would forever be a Mariage Frères doubter, but this tea proved me wrong. SUPER almondy today (like drinking marzipan), sweet and smooth with a nice amount of spices. Sadly this is one of those limited edition MF teas that only comes in an expensive tin, but I will enjoy what I have of it. Who knows, one day I may find another MF tea that I love.
Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Oh my goodness. A fancy french tea called “Full Moon Party”. I might have to see about tracking some down at, umm, some point.

this is a very lovely blend and unfortunately I finished my tin. I know you are a rose lover and wonder how you found the rose in this blend ? I found it light but present and it gave a special romantic touch to this tea to me.

I don’t really taste the rose in this one but I love it anyway. I guess I can smell it a touch but it’s very subtle. So glad happened to find a tin of this in a shop in Pittsburgh!

Bio

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.

In my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.

Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: Mind-blowingly good, just right for my palate, and teas that just take me to a happy place.
89-86: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they’re not quite as spectacular as the top category
85-80: Pretty tasty teas that I enjoy well enough, but definitely won’t rebuy when I run out.
79-70: Teas that I would probably drink again, but only if there were no preferrable options.
69-50: Teas that I don’t really enjoy all that much and wouldn’t drink another cup of.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.
Unrated: Usually I feel unqualified to rate these teas because they are types of teas that I tend to not like in general. Sometimes user error or tea brewed under poor conditions.
