This tea, for me, was ok. I really enjoyed the aroma and taste of the toasted rice, but I got this after taste that I did not like, something along the lines of seaweed, algae, marine water….I had to play around with the amount of tea leaves vs water, and I found that less leaves and more water seemed to suit my palate.

It’s been a while since I’ve touched this tea. I forgot how good this tastes. A bold, bright flavour with just a slight touch of bitterness. A great cup to start the day.

I don’t love this tea, but I don’t hate it. It’s just ok. Nothing stands out about this tea. It’s mild and slightly vegetal. I won’t be hurting to finish my stash, but I probably wouldn’t order it again.

I. Love. This. Tea.

I love the smoky flavour of this tea. The smokiness is not overwhelming, just enough to evoke awesome memories of the great outdoors and white water rafting.

Bio

My tea journey started in 2012, when a friend gifted me some loose leaf. I guess she thought I was drinking too much coffee. Blown away by the amazing flavours I immediately embraced the loose leaf tea. I still drink coffee, but my main choice of beverage is now tea.

My tea preferences are blacks, pu’erhs, oolongs and greens.
