This was another tea set out for free samples at verdant and was served iced. This tea is incredibly fruity! It tasted almost like a fruit juice, lychee I think with a hint of citrus. I really liked the taste of this tea and it was very refreshing, but I couldn’t get past the smell of the tea. It smelled like overripe fruit with a hint of decay. My friend Sarah loved it though, so it must just be me.
Flavors: Lychee
Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.
I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.
Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!
I’m up for swaps!
