drank Hibiscus Berry Rose by Verdant Tea

Sipdown! I cold brewed the remainder of my sample, unfortunately it was a bit weak as there wasn’t much tea left. Still refreshing and something different though, for a caffeine free cold brew, this one is a top contender. Might re-order next year, but not for a while as I’m signed up to the Verdant blend club and I have enough blends coming my way for a while – excited about the preview of the November ones! See previous notes on this tea :)

It’s on their facebook page under the album ‘November Blend Club ships soon!’ It’s mostly just photos, but a few hints about them as well :D

No prob :) I won’t spoil them on here for anyone who doesn’t like seeing hints before getting the teas, but they look pretty awesome!

Bio

Hello all, I am an electrical engineer (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it was excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee! (unless it’s a really good cappuccino or latte, or decent decaf haha)

I enjoy a variety of teas – current favorites being ripe and raw pu’erhs, chinese black teas and herbal/green rooibos blends. I also enjoy white, green, and oolong teas, although I tend to drink them more in the warmer months. I have also tried matcha and guayusa, but I don’t drink them too often as I am a bit sensitive to caffeine. As a result I don’t drink black teas as often as I used to, but in moderation I can still enjoy a wide variety of teas.

Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid most other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a bit, but that’s ok. However I have tried almonds and found out I can eat them, so I have been trying a few teas with them in them.

95+: Absolute favorite, will try to always have it in stock, and when I don’t I pine over it!
90-94: Awesome teas, will probably purchase again a few times
80-89: Very good tea, may restock at some point
70-79: happy to have tried and will gladly finish, but not restock
60-69: not horrible, but not the best, will finish if I have some though
50-59: not a favorite, probably will have a tough time finishing the bag
-50: yuck. I don’t want to have it ever again.
