drank Lemoncello by American Tea Room
1501 tasting notes

This was tucked away in my cupboard, and I had to search for it, knowing it would be sipdown with just a sample size to tide me over.

Opening the package is quite a treat. Creamy, sweet lemon wafted up to greet me. I want to take a bite out of this smell, it’s so delicious!

Drinking this is similar to what I imagine drinking a buttery lemon pudding would be: tart and sweet, full and thick, with a lot of buttery flake somewhere in there to boot. I wish there was more cream, and I’m missing the other elements the description raves about (caramel, orange, etc.) It is very delicious though, I just think I prefer Tealish’s Lemon Meringue more – and only because of the creaminess in the other blend.

A few years ago, the obsession with tea started. The cupboard got bigger and bigger, more swaps occurred, group buys, secret rendezvous with local teapassionistas… and that’s how you end up with 500+ different kinds of tea in your home. At one time.

Almost all of the tea was given away, sold, or otherwise shared. A few relics still remain. I now travel full time with only two carryon bags to my name. One quarter of those bags are tea.

It’s still a challenge to avoid the chipmunk-like hoarding of The Teas, yet, the lightness of being from having so little compels me more.

If I have enough, I’m happy to share. If I’m in your area, I’d love to swap, meet for tea, and explore together.

As for the day-to-day stuff, I’m focused almost entirely on Love, (yes, with a capital L), Spirit/Self, transformation, travel and my writing and speaking work.

What kinds of teas do I normally like?

YES: flavored teas, fruity, dessert, chai, and spicy (REALLY spicy).

A FONDNESS FOR: all white teas, malty black teas, any herbal or medicinal teas, strange/weird teas you can only get in one place.

ALLERGIC TO: strawberries, lavender

DISLIKES: any added sugars, grains, lapsang souchong, and overly floral teas – I might enjoy a Jasmine Green every once in a while, but unless it’s a creamy floral tea (think roses in a chai, or the smoothness of a floral note in a French tea), I’ll likely pass. Earl Greys are a hit or miss with me; heavy on the cream or fruit notes and I might like it, heavy on the blergamot and I definitely won’t.
