116 tasting notes

I have a love/hate relationship with Chinooks. On one hand they change -20C weather into 0C, try to blow people over (you get used to this after a while) and totally make a mess of the roads; and on the other they give me massive migraines. So after a really poor sleep due to my head I needed something with a bit more caffeine than usual to get me going this morning. So a mate it is.

I can’t get over how murky the liquor is… completely understandable given the powder and the chocolate chips but it surprises me every time. Flavor wise, I still find the chocolate a bit subtle for my tastes but I’m getting a bit more of the roasted mate flavor this steeping and I enjoy how it breaks up the chocolate notes. The cinnamon is a nice touch too.

I wish I had got this when it was on special. I was bummed when they had run out and I missed it.

Ever since I discovered the wide world that is loose-leaf teas, I haven’t been able to go back. It doesn’t seem to matter what type it is or if it’s “straight” or “flavored” tea is my thing. It’s actually quite funny as I’m surrounded by coffee lovers who just can’t quite grasp why, to me, tea is better than coffee. :D (which considering it’s less-than a 5 minute walk to each of 2 separate Tim Horton’s, a Starbucks AND a Second Cup… that’s saying something!)

On the whole I tend to prefer my tea strong and “au natural” with no sweeteners, milk or other additions, but like most everyone there’s always exceptions to the rule… just not many of them.

Aside from tea I love reading (especially if there is a fireplace or campfire involved), camping/hiking, horseback riding and Healing Touch (similar to Reiki). Oh and computers and board games (euro style, is there anything else? ;)) and… and… chuckles OK so I have a large variety of interests.
