Gianna drank SoHo Blend by Harney & Sons

21 tasting notes

In the bag, the dry tea smells wonderful! I can easily pick up the creamy smoothness of coconut and vanilla. When brewed, it is still smooth and creamy. I steeped it for 3 minutes, and it feels fairly mild—the way I like it. Of the flavors, the coconut is most pronounced for me. The chocolate is difficult to trace. The vanilla is extremely subtle. Overall, I am really enjoying this tea! I wish Harney would sell smaller-sized tins though.

Bio

I grew up drinking herbal tea, in many cases tea that I picked myself: chamomile, linden flowers, lemon balm, thyme, and hibiscus teas were an important part of my childhood experience. I learned to appreciate their delicate flavors. I am not new to black or green teas, but somehow, I had found them boring. My introduction to flavored teas—oolong, black or green—was a few years ago, and I’ve been hooked since then. Today, I still enjoy herbal teas. I’ve always been very sensitive to smells, so to me, the balance between flavor and aroma is very important. Tea is one of those small luxuries in life that allows us to combine our olfactory senses with taste.

I tend to like: herbal teas, “dessert” teas with vanilla, chocolate, or other flavors, and floral teas.
