Made some of this today, as I’m coming down with a bit of a cold. Figured since this oolong is smooth and has wonderful honey hints already in it, adding honey wouldn’t make it taste strange and I could try to sooth my sore throat. It’s doing wonders right now. And of course, as I’ve stated before, it tastes wonderful. I only added a little honey, as I don’t like my tea super sweet, but this oolong can handle it. Yum.
Started brewing loose leaf tea about seven years ago. Excited to share my experiences and learn more from everyone on here!
I’ve found I Prefer:
Oolong Teas
White Teas
Green Teas
Black Teas
Flavored White Teas
Flavored Black Teas (depending on the base tea)
Flavored Oolong Teas
Pu-erh’s
Certain Herbals/Tisanes
I’ve found I Dislike:
Bitterness/Astringent Teas
Strong Floral Teas
Fruit Tisanes (at least hot)
Matcha and Rooibos teas tend to be hit or miss with me. I guess it depends on the tea and my mood.
That being said, I’ll give anything a shot!
When I’m not brewing/sipping tea, I’m usually reading, listening to music, working, or in the summer, kayaking/camping/hiking! I also enjoy a good movie now and then. I’ve got quite the collection going. It almost rivals my tea collection! ;)
I’ve only just returned after quite some time away – Steepster stopped working for me in 2013 and I FINALLY remembered this password and was able to get back on here in 2017. But I’ve been drinking tea all along the way!
Happy steeping!
