74 Tasting Notes
#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #74 overall / Tea #41 for February
Wednesday 2/24 — So I’m on a good roll to finish February on track with sipdowns, so figured I’d get a few in this morning at home since I was working the 3-11 shift at work today. I’m not a earl grey fan or much of a black tea fan so I grabbed two different earl grey teabags and figured hey half water half milk make a latte and knock two out.
This was more subtle smelling not sure if flavoring wasn’t as strong as the steeped tea one or an older teabag? Oh! I did post a pretty picture of latte in my matching DT mug & handmade coaster from @teathoughts :

This one smelled pretty strong taking it out of the sealed foil package. It was fine but nothing else to say.

Tuesday 2/23 16 oz gold tumbler (old style) hot and plain. I think this was the older version of this tea because it was just in a clear Ziploc baggie but I’m not sure I know the difference?? This was my last tea of 2/23 I think hallelujah!

Tuesday 2/23 hot cuppa in pink 12 oz(?) dt mug. I think I had this as a latte? I was sipping so many teas yesterday. I enjoy this one even though it has that C ingredient haha.

Tuesday 2/23 hot plain cuppa in pink 12 oz(?) dt mug. Another one from @teaandmeblog advent calendar 2020. Drank this fairly quickly this afternoon nothing noteworthy.

Tuesday 2/23 hot plain cuppa in pink 12 oz(?) dt mug. 8 to 10 oz of water with a DT 5g sample packet (like you would get in online orders) and good pour of cold milk to fill up mug. It’s a popular one but never been a fan. Glad to keep getting rid of it when I find some in my stash.

They seem to do teabag samples now instead. And the last two times I ordered, I didn’t get any! Maybe because it was teaware only…
Cameron- Same here and I think I saw a tasting note from Ros saying that DT wasn’t doing samples anymore.
Yeah, it was nice to get the samples (and even back in the days where you could choose the three in case you had any preferences/allergies), but I have a small trash can (like one you’d have under a desk at an office) filled with them and that’s only maybe a 1% of my tea stash. :) — I did notice in past year or so they’d occasionally throw a couple tea bags in the box like you mentioned Cameron.

Tuesday 2/23 still working on Jan and Feb teas from my diy advent calendar #drinkwhatyouown etc. I haven’t even made a theme for March yet. Hmm. Anyway this was a random little silver wrapped tea labeled Passionfruit. Not sure where it came from but I know I have had it for a while. It was a flowering blooming tea, which is not really my style. I put it in a 12 oz clear Holly branch perfect mug from my david’s tea days and sipped hot and plain with breakfast.

Monday 2/22 this was from Danielle @teaandmeblog 2020 advent calendar that was small business focused. I don’t drink but enjoy fruity teas. This was the kind of fruity black tea I would like. A berry tasty tea that I had hot and plain and even resteeped 2/23 before tossed leaves / cleaned metal infuser basket. Not a place in my cupboard for this but I enjoyed it.

Monday 2/22 so my goal is 500 sipdown notes by end of 2021 (each one is a tin/package something minimum one 16 to 20 oz travel mug worth). To do I need at least 42 notes a month so 84 by end of February. This puts me at 3x/day for the rest of February so I need to step up. Luckily this 25g packet of tea from fall 2016 as a cold brew pitcher for my boyfriend is done with so I can count it. I had to come home from my day shift and make him a hot latte to finish the pitcher off so I still had to do some work to make it happen. Lol.
