hawkband1 drank Thailand Sticky Rice 'Khao Hom' Oolong Tea by What-Cha

537 tasting notes

172F, 5gish, 150 ml gaiwan
It really tastes like sweet sticky rice. Tastes stays throughout multiple steeps. Definitely an interesting tea, but not really for me. Glad to have tried it.

Flavors: Sweet, Thick, Toasted Rice

I pretty much thought the same thing. Great once, but after, you realize that it tastes exactly like the soaking water for rice.

Bio

I started my tea journey with Stash/Celestial Seasonings tea bags years ago. All loose leaf, unless I’m sick or traveling.

I like black, oolong, white, herbals, and raw/ripe pu’erh. I don’t drink green tea often.

I play video games, read, and do pottery. My current favorite tea mug is one I threw and glazed.

I generally review teas twice – initial and final steeps.

My cupboard is completely out of date. I have a spreadsheet (it’s current!!!) that’s over 300 teas. Pretty equal amounts of black, white, oolong, raw, & ripe with a little bit of green/herbal.

Ratings
85-100 are teas that I loved and want to keep in stock.
71-84 are teas that are good. I may or may not get them again. Source for daily drinkers/work teas.
60-70 are teas that I didn’t like. I’ll finish what I bought.
Anything less than 60…nope.
