This is a sample sipdown! Another one from Cavocorax :)
I have to go count my number because it’s gone down a bit lately.

I admit I almost forced myself to brew this one because I’m still watching Firefly, I only have like 4 episodes left :( so I felt like continuing to drink my way through the Firefly crew!

Honestly, I was not expecting anything good, after the last one. I haven’t been overly impressed thus far with my Adagio trials.

After the spicy Inara tea, I was left curious as to whether or not I would consider myself a chai fan, it’s not really something I seek out, ever.

So this one.

I’m impressed. The addition of the caramel makes for a real smooth, sweet chai blend!
I added milk and it’s like drinking a spicy, creamy dessert.

I’d actually consider buying this one, assuming I ran into more teas I’d want!

Thanks again Cavo!

Now that you’ve been watching Firefly, what do you think of it?

I think it’s awesome!! I love it. I was not expecting it to be so good, and I thought it would be way more cartoony/cheesy than it is

I’m watching episode eight now, and right now I’ve tried Inara (didn’t like), Kaylee (liked), and Simon (unsure; I’d want to have it again). No new one tonight though; I’m super sick so don’t want to waste a cup on a poor pallet. I’m scared to try Zoe though; it smells so gingery! How much did you pick up on the ginger?

Hello!

I love tea. I love my mini-me daughter, my husband, my dog Wally, Netflix, shopping, and tea. Some other stuff too, but these are the most important!

Some favourites -

My new favourite tea company is A Quarter to Tea. I love the flavouring used and how it doesn’t seem fake, and the combinations are so delicious. Right up my alley.

My favourite teas are black, I love Laoshan Black and Taiwanese Wild Mountain Black tea from TTC. Also many of Teavivre’s black teas.

Butiki teas RIP, I loved how the flavours were subtle and not fake tasting and didn’t overwhelm the tea base. Trust that I am dramatically mourning the loss of this company!

Teavivre, Whispering Pines and Mariage Freres are some more tea companies I appreciate. Along with Davidstea as it was the ‘gateway drug’ to my tea addiction. Though I’m mostly over it now, I’ve definitely moved on from the artificially flavoured teas and am trying more quality straight teas!

My ultimate goal is to try as many French teas as possible – and to finally find a source in Canada for Mariage Freres so I can buy Wedding Imperial, and Black Orchid for sure.

I would like to try any Taiwanese Assams that exist in the world!

Also continuously on the hunt for Fauchon – La Naissance. If anyone has some of this I would pay for it!!! It’s my number one all time favourite tea.

When I rate, it goes like this:

85 -100 = WIN! awesome, I love this and keep it on hand
70 – 85 = pretty darn good but I don’t NEED to own it
55 – 70 = not necessarily terrible but not a tea for me!
30 – 55 = missed the mark as far as I am concerned. Wouldn’t drink it willingly.
0 – 30 = I likely won’t rate this low very often, so if you see it, consider the tea a great big FAIL and probably disgusting.
