What a blast from the past. This tea has been sitting in a bin in the pantry for over a decade…lost in the dark in the back. Well, Found It!, quite by accident. Since I was intending to brew some tea for iced tea and it found it’s way to the front, I decided what the heck.
Still good – even better, as iced tea, than it ever was as a hot drink. The floral overtones have dissipated, but it still has a green tea bite and a nice clean mouth feel. Not as astringent as a black, and I over brewed it in anticipation of ice watering it down.

Flavors: Dry Grass, Green

I think a lot of us have a secret stash of Frank’s old 52teas blends. I found a couple the other day that need to be enjoyed.

I’m not much active on Steepster because I haven’t been trying a lot of different tea lately. I have been buying M.T. Wendell’s Cheericup Ceylon because it is my favorite. That said, gifts of tea drop in every once in awhile and I try to bring my impressions here.
I am unashamedly stealing this rating description from Morgana.

90-94 Excellent; first rate; top notch; really terrific; will definitely buy more

80-89 Very good; will likely buy more

70-79 Good; would enjoy again, might buy again

60-69 Okay; wouldn’t pass up if offered, but likely won’t buy again

Below 60 Meh, so-so, iffy, or ick. The lower the number, the closer to ick.
