Maddy Barone drank North Pole Estate by Tippy's Tea

768 tasting notes

Great cup of tea, and not just for the holidays, but all year round. I brewed a pot of this late this afternoon and drank a cup hot. Then I had to go out, and when I came home I had a cup cold. It was great either way. Some spicy teas leave a coating on the tongue. This one didn’t. It has a warm, spicy flavor, but I didn’t feel like the spices were overpowering. I haven’t had a tea from Tippy’s yet that I didn’t enjoy. I think this will be fabulous tomorrow morning, when the temp is supposed to be -21 F (-30C).

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 3 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
