Backlog – sorry.

I thought this was a black tea….oops.
5g 210F 2min
sweet, vegetal
5g 195F
greener, thick, coating, earthy citrus aftertaste
These notes make more sense it this is a pu-erh.
It’s not a tea for me – a little too green and earthy.
Flavors: Citrus, Earth, Green, Sweet, Thick, Vegetal
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My cupboard is completely out of date.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.

It’s been a long time since I finished my sample of this. At the time, it reminded me of a jade oolong.
