This is my go-to breakfast blend when I’m on the run. It’s pretty easygoing in terms of how you make it- you can (gasp) heat it in the microwave and it will still taste okay, or you can boil water in a kettle and make it.
It’s just plain black tea, so if you go into it knowing that, you have no real reason to be disappointed when you get just plain black tea. It’s affordable- you can buy a lot of it very cheaply. And what you see is what you get.
Favorite tea types: Black, pu’erh, oolong, kombucha, genmaicha, floral greens, matcha, yaupon, mate, rooibos, and honeybush.
Favorite flavor notes: Roasted, fermented, earthy, floral, nutty, bread-y, umami; dessert-inspired flavors like chocolate, vanilla, and maple.
Picky about, but not opposed to: chai, spice/ spicy, fruit flavors, and herbal tisanes.
Flat-out dislike: White tea, most unflavored green teas, hibiscus, plain peppermint.
90-100: Perfection and heaven and magic, all in one cup.
70-89: Good.
50-69: Meh.
49 and below: Blerg.
