drank Jasmine Green Tea by Bentley's
4843 tasting notes

It isn’t often that I come across a Jasmine tea that I really dislike, but this is one of those times. This just isn’t working for me at all. The jasmine is overwhelmingly strong to the point of smelling and tasting like soap. I don’t think I can finish the cup.

That’s so sad to hear, since Jasmine Green Tea is one of the best things on the planet. But I trust your judgment…and at least you could follow with something yummy. Thank you for sharing and helping us avoid the same fate!

Yes, thanks very much for sharing this. I adore jasmine green, but I’m damn picky about it, and only getting pickier. Now I can avoid wasting precious tea money. Soap belong in the bath, not the teapot.

I was actually quite surprised, because every other tea that I’ve tried from Bentley’s thus far has been pretty good. But this one just was not.

I’ve got a few at David’sTea like that. Must look further into Bentley’s.

I am obsessed with tea!

I am a co-founder of the SororiTEA Sisters:

I no longer write for the SororiTea Sisters but I am still the admin for the blog.

The reason I’m no longer writing for SororiTea Sisters is because I am now the Mad Tea Artist for 52Teas:

http://52teas.com

I’ll still be posting occasional reviews on teas here on Steepster, mostly backlogged reviews because I’m way behind on getting reviews posted. That’s why I’m keeping two accounts active at the current time – so that I can get those backlogged reviews posted.

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.

I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination, which is why I was very excited to be the Mad Tea Artist of 52Teas!
