This has rattled around my cupboard for 2 years without ever being opened. Why? I have no idea. However, today when I finally opened it, it smelled so pungent and so sickeningly sweet. It filled the room and as I started drinking it, that cloying sweetness transferred to taste. If I’m being honest though, I think this maybe is a victim of age and not a reflection of the tea.

I got distracted by life so I don’t have more to say beyond this was fruity and nice

Drank this the other day when wfh. It was pretty middle of the road for me so I don’t remember much about it. It was smooth and fine but doesn’t standout. Thank you Sil for the share!

Strange VariaTEA TTB: Tea 26

The good thing is I think I can taste teas. The bad news is, it’s because I’m really not liking how this tastes. I think it’s just overly sweet from probably the liquorice and it’s just not working for me. It is helping to suppress the cough though and for that, I’m thankful.

I did not like this tea hot it was too sweet. I like it better iced. I would not buy anymore but I’ll finish the bag I have.

My cupboard has grown exponentially since joining this site and I have a lot to share. Feel free to snoop through my cupboard and message me if anything interests you – I am always happy to swap!

For me, flavored teas are definitely my sweet spot. I will most often reach for black teas and rooibos or honeybush blends but I do keep some flavored whites and greens around for when the mood strikes. I have a few herbals/tisanes but most of the time I find myself disappointed by them as they often smell deliciously sweet and then end up tasting tart/sour. I have a little bit of an aversion to pu’erh and oolong teas. I am also wary of florals, earl greys, and chai teas. I do not like overpowering citrus flavors nor do I usually like hibiscus, licorice or chamomile. I love dessert teas – caramel, vanilla, toffee, cookie, cream, and other sweet flavors make me smile. Fruits like strawberry, peach, mango, and pineapples will often catch my attention as well.

I have also realized that although I really enjoy adding frothed milk to some of my teas, if I do not like the tea with zero additives (just in plain water without milk or sugar), I probably won’t drink it. The one exception is flavored matchas which I will happily drink in cold milk if I do not like it mixed with hot water. My theory is if the tea can’t stand on its own then it is not for me and I will more than likely try to swap it out for something else.

Tea Ratings Guide (as of December 10, 2017)
90-100 Teas I NEED on hand at all times
80-89 Teas I want to keep around for a cup every now and then
70-79 Teas I am glad I have around and can experiment with but probably don’t need more than what’s in my cupboard
60-69 Teas I would not turn down a cup of from a friend but that would probably be enough
50-59 Teas I can see why someone would enjoy but are not for me
Under 50 Teas I really did not like and most likely got dumped
