Alas, just when I think I’m grown up enough to handle straight teas, something comes along that’s like “you are a n00b.”

I’m not going to leave a numerical rating for this one. I don’t have the palate to accurately judge it yet.

It’s like when you’re a kid and you take a sip of beer and you’re like “THIS IS HEINOUS I WILL ALWAYS HATE THIS.” But when you’re older, you try a few and figure out that maybe you like stouts, or IPAs, or wheats, or Oktoberfest ales. Or maybe you will hate beer forever (my husband does).

If I still have this around in a year or two, I will have to give it another go.

Puerh is usually the final frontier for many. It was for me. First time I tried a ripe puerh I was like, Nope.

Bio

I’m a graphic designer, illustrator, crafter, geek, and recent tea convert. I love teas that are sweet, zippy (caffeinated), and hopeful. In concrete terms, that’s usually black or maté tea, with some chocolate/vanilla/berry/nut in there somewhere. If it gives me the dessert experience without the calories, my heart soars.

I’m not a big fan of mint, grass (“yogi farts”), sours, or bitterness.

I’m into the idea of trading to try new things. If you think our flavor profiles coordinate, let me know, and we can swap boxes!
