Busiest work night of my life. At one point, it felt like someone had removed my brain, and replaced it with bees. A lot of bees.

So after all of that silly awful business, I went to Whole Foods to grab a new tea. I love the melon candies I get at the Asian supermarkets, so I figured this would be rad. Was I right? Totally! This is yumziez.

First cup was pure. No sugar/cream. So clean tasting! I then went to brew a whole pot with a tiny bit of sugar. Beautiful flavor. It tastes really fresh. The taste lingers too, which is nice!

Your review makes me want to try this tea, but alas I broke up with The Republic of Tea last week. It does sound pretty yumziez though…

Erin Hurley

This is actually my FIRST tea from TRoT… (omg it spells trot!)

I’m waking up and drinkin a cold cup. It tastes exactly like the melon candy at my nail salon. Om nommerz!

4 minutes is a little long for a white tea. This gives it a bit more flavour without compromising the delicate nature of this fragrant white.

lol I agree, but you should check out Adagio’s suggested steeping times. But then again I also think 180 can be a little hot for whites as well. But then again whatever floats the leaf in your tea cup:)

I wanna say I got this from TeaNTees?? I usually write who I got the tea from on the bag but it’s upstairs and I’m lazy hahah

But this is a nice cuppa! It smells exactly like it tastes (I think that’s a plus to tea bags). I’m bias with tea and very rarely do I drink bagged tea, but this one is actually pretty good! You do get some on the melon flavour, but it’s definitely not a delicate white tea. There’s a bit of weight to it. I know I know, I’m probably just prejiduce against bagged teas, but I think it’s because it’s just hard for bagged tea to develop a lighter flavour.

But still, a pretty good tea! If I were to go out and buy a bagged tea, I might reach for this one :)

Another tea I picked up in the Overboard TTB. I will miss it. It was delicious, especially after I figured out how to brew it properly. Sweet, light, refreshing melon flavor. I tried it cold brewed with the White Guava I also got, but that turned out kind of bitter. I think it would make a terrific iced tea if I could get it right, though. I’ll definitely be getting more of this eventually.

I’m so glad I grabbed this from Ost when she was selling it because it has definitely found my favor more than it did hers! Perhaps this is because I have yet to try Lupicia’s famed Golden Honey Dew. For now, I am quite happy with this. I had it hot and probably would continue to have it hot. It reminded me of this wedding I went to in San Francisco. They had their reception at an Asian restaurant that served tempura-fried honeydew pieces. Oh man. That was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever eaten, and yet I’ve never again seen it on any menu anywhere. Someone needs to get on that! Anyway, because this tea reminds me of that, I will greatly enjoy drinking each and every bag I can!

Flavors: Honeydew

Honeydew Melon. Sounds amazing, huh?
That’s what I thought too. xD
So, I doubt any of you guys smoke Hookah ever, but there is this flavor by a company called Haze, and it’s called “Cucumberita”. My bro used to be obsessed with it. We used to smoke it all the time back in the day. Cucumberita tastes like cucumber water mainly.
And you know what? This tea totally tastes like Cucumberita. It’s so weird.
It’s like having that hookah flavor in liquid form. Not sure how I feel about this one. :O It isn’t too strong of a tea, which Is also disappointing for me. But…at least I tried. And I can always give it away/sell it if I decide it’s not for me.
I think that Lupicia’s melon/honeydew teas still stand as the best.

Flavors: Cucumber

This one has been on my RoT wishlist since I first tried their teas!

Anlina

This sounds pretty amazing.

I haven’t smoked hookah in ages, but I really enjoy it. It’s one of the only things I can smoke without it feeling far too harsh on my throat and lungs.

Ost

The Cookie Lady, I can definitely send you some if you want (:
Same with you, Anlina. Just hit me up!

I loved this tea. Sweet smelling and tasting. I’ve only had it hot and should definitely try it iced.
