Bio
I’m an avid tea drinker, it’s what I drink all day and why I’m here. I don’t sweeten my teas except for the occasional iced tea or cold-brewed tea. I typically brew my teas with a brew basket in a 12 oz cup. If I brew another way I will always note it.
Dislikes: black teas, milk flavored oolongs, hibiscus, red rooibos, licorice, dessert teas, mate, guayusa.
Loves: straight teas, especially Chinese green teas, sencha, jasmine, dan congs, mint, coconut.
My ratings are based mostly on the smiley faces. If a tea is of good quality but not to my taste preference I try not to rate it because I think that is unfair.
I drink a lot of the same teas and will not record every time I drink them. I log them the first time I try them and then again if I did something different and/or got different results.
I also try to keep my cupboard updated to what I actually have for those that wish to swap, although some of them are merely samples.

Why? Splain to me!
Because it tastes like rice cakes lol! I barely even taste the sencha, which is why it’s not the best, but it does have a good toasted rice flavor, even if it is all I taste. One I’ve had tasted like dirt…that would be the worst I’ve ever had.
eeeeoooooowww ick!
The genmaicha I have also tastes like rice cakes. I adore plain rice cakes and therefore love it! Definitely not much green tea flavour though.
