Sipdown!! (195)
Two days ago I hit the 450 tasting note milestone, and now (thanks in large part to an inspiring competition with Roswell Strange) I am writing my 500TH TASTING NOTE. Unfortunately, it just had to be for a ridiculous little tea called Monkey Fart.
Luckily, the taste is not nearly as hard to get behind as the name. I have already said what I needed to say about this tea. It is a nice smooth black that sneakily transitions to sweet banana goodness. However, I decided to drink this up so that I could use the pitcher to cold brew another one of my SBTs.
On another note, I also intend to cold brew another tea but can’t decide which one. I am happy to take some suggestions. What teas (preferably blacks) have you guys cold brewed and enjoyed??

Haha, congrats. I think it’s cool that you hit that milestone with a funny-named tea. :-)
Thank you. It really is a strange name. However, I think this is the perfect tea for my brother. He likes iced tea, loves banana and is a male in his 20s so a banana iced tea named Monkey Fart would be right up his alley.
I’m not huge in cold brewed black teas thus far, but one I did enjoy was Superberry from David’s.
I will keep that in mind. Alas I don’t have any of that :( Thanks for the suggestion though!
Congrats on 500! As far as iced goes, seconding Superberry from David’s. Blueberry Black (and White) from Adagio are surprisingly good. I find anything with bright berry flavors generally works pretty well.
Well onto the shopping list Superberry goes. Alas there is also no Adagio teas in my cupboard (with the exception of Honeybush Mango). I will keep those in mind. Thanks moraiwe.
I don’t know why superberry isn’t on david’s website though.
Yay 500!
Congrats on 500! White Angel by Tea Desire is something I’ve steeped successfully cold.
WOOOOOT! congratultions on 500!
(I have 50g of White Angel, so if you want some next swap to cold brew let me know)
