1024 Tasting Notes
I really like this one as a refresher, a palate cleanser. I don’t really get any of those yoghurt/creamy notes but that might be due to the age of the blend? In any case I really don’t mind; I’m a fan.
Rediscovered my enjoyment of this blend lately and am quickly getting through the last of the supply that ashleyelizabeth sent on my fateful first Steepster swap!
Having a cup of this tonight as a bit of a palate cleanser (I may or may not have eaten a whole pack of red velvet Tim Tams…) and it’s making me quite nostalgic for the earlier days of T2.
There’s something about this blend that just isn’t… trying as hard as the current limited edition releases. This year has been exciting but three new special teas every MONTH is a little too much, particularly when those teas cost between $20-$30 a box (50-150g depending on the blend). And the monthly themes are fun but also a bit overwhelming, some blends feel overcomplicated and other months I don’t really care about. Just like… settle down.
Settle down and re-release some earlier greats.
Like this one.
Another wonderful sample from VariaTEA and this is my favourite one yet, if only because it was a nice surprise compared to the other two. Don’t get me wrong, I really dig the Cookies & Cream and Banana & Cream flavours but this one was less sweet and so it was a nice break from the trend. Less sweet, but still so delicious. Buttery caramel flavours but still such matcha. YEAH!
lol
Foot pampering and tea certainly go hand in hand :D
