BrutaliTeas advent day 2

This tea definitely lived up to its description as a mint chocolate tea. The mint is far more forward, but I like that in a chocolate mint in general, and I think it suits the tea. It’s smooth, and while chocolate teas are hit or miss for me, I don’t get any of that cloying sweetness. As the cup cools, the green tea is more noticeable in the initial sip. It’s a shame this is a sold-out seasonal blend, because I quite enjoyed it.

I would check out Cocomint Green by Adagio, it looks like the same tea.

Great at buying tea, okay at drinking tea, awful at timely reviews. Drawn to fruit, floral, spice, smoke, and flavored teas in general; prefer those that stand well without milk or sweetener. Black is fine, green is better, and red rooibos is trash.

My ratings are for me, so I don’t accidentally buy something that sounds amazing but I’ve already tried and disliked. I struggle a bit with wanting to be “fair” to a tea that other people would probably like, but then my system won’t work!

90-100 A: loved it; would make this a permanent member of my stash
80-89 B: tasty; would pick it up again
70-79 C: good; could grab with a good deal or to try in a different style
60-69 D: okay; would keep in a set but probably would not repurchase on its own
1-59 F: various shades of bad; would not purchase; closer to 1 means may not even drink again if offered.
