1959 Tasting Notes

Finished off a 25g bag. Very sad day. It’s a pretty pricey tea- $17.50/25g, but I really enjoy it, so just ordered another bag. One of the few teas I really measure and savor.

This is just okay. I don’t usually love hibiscus in black tea blends, and this falls into that category. Not getting any of the rum flavoring or plum bitters, which both sounds interesting.

Flavors: Hibiscus, Red Fruits, Tart

I would be bummed about the rum and plum bitters being absent!

Smells strongly of green apple candies, but I don’t actually get much apple in the flavor. Actually has a strong coconut flavor.

Consistently delicious. Will probably restock once I run out (if that is still even a possibility).

This tea is lovely- super dominant jasmine flavor without being perfumey. The green base is present and lends a nice support to the fresh jasmine flavor.

Flavors: Floral, Jasmine

Delicious. Roasty, very vegetal.

Still tasty. This cup had a more prominent creme brûlée note.

I got this for Christmas but haven’t tried this one yet! Now I want to have it for breakfast tomorrow. Sounds yummy!

Went to an Indonesian restaurant last weekend and enjoyed one of the best milk teas I’ve ever had, so I’ve been craving them. Soon after I saw a post about this particular Taylors variety that I hadn’t had before, and couldn’t resist buying some to try. Made a delicious sweetened oatmilk tea this morning- it’s lovely. Really nice, subtle biscuity flavor that works nicely with the bold black tea. So good with the oat milk.

I enjoyed this one. Sounds like a great way to drink it!
