Sipdown!
I had snagged quite a bit of this from the first round of the “Caffeine-Free/Decaf Traveling Tea Box”. It’s a nice dessert rooibos, perfect after a long day of working. I add sweetener which makes it even more dessert like. To be honest, I go back and forth with what this tastes like… but the ultimate answer is good and that’s really all that matters. Would buy if it were available, but alas, it is another discontinued Teavana blend. Happy to have it while it lasted, though.
I recently discovered loose leaf tea and am already addicted (much to my husband’s dismay)! I prefer fruity teas iced and savory teas hot. Looking forward to drinking and chatting.
Some likes/dislikes I’ve been noticing:
Likes:
Pineapple
Jasmine
Fruity White Teas
lighters Blacks
Most Oolongs (especially greener varieties)
dessert teas
tisanes iced that don’t require added sweetener
Dislikes:
Spicy flavors unless in chai
astringent black teas
heavy ginger teas
teas with licorice (as primary ingredients – somehow I like some where the licorice is in the back drop)
heavily oxidized oolongs

For my own reference, I’m only placing “full size” teas in my cupboard.
