I just had to go for some grab bags on sale! I haven’t supported the new 52Teas yet and I thought it was time. :D This is the tea closest to the one I suggested a while ago: a chutney tea! Fruity and spicy! I was bound to love it. I do! Plenty of pineapple! It reminds me of the pineapple that Butiki used in their Pineapple Oolong. I don’t notice mango, but in my infuser there looked to be only one tiny mango cube compared with all of that pineapple. In one heaping teaspoon for a mug there is just enough heat. Love it. The black tea is perfect to pair with fruit – it complements! The black tea has a fruity character itself. I love the spicy pineapple tea! If anyone has any they would like to sell, please let me know.
Steep #1 // 1 tsp for full mug // ?? minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 4 minute steep

Dammit, how did I miss this one? I want some too. :(

I bought one of those grab bags too! Such a great deal.

The description says this was a limited edition for a kickstarter? Maybe there wasn’t much for sale.

This was a tea that I created for one of the Kickstarter ‘trio’ (or 3-tier) collections. This was from the spicy collection. It’s been on the website since February though.

(Just recently sold out, thanks due in no small part to the mystery assortment sale.)

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
