It is day 14, I have stuff to do but first, tea! Singapore Breakfast.
Pu-erh black tea, genmaicha green tea (that's the one with the roasted rice), coconut chips, artificial pandan flavour, "flavours".
Both the bag and brewed tea smell strongly of roasted rice, which is a very nice scent.
Flavour is strongly ricey, with a hint of coconut. The coconut is not really putting in a ton of effort, but I suppose it IS December and it's been a long year.
I do like it, I think what I'm liking in this is the genmaicha (which was in an earlier one I enjoyed) so I might just track down some of that.
Day 13, and a Friday the 13th. Look out for ladders.
China Jasmine. Green tea and jasmine.
Bag smells, see if you can guess, of jasmine.
Very strong jasmine flavour in the tea, though it claims to be scented and not flavoured. This is a lie. It tastes of jasmine, with some green tea under it. Very floral, but not soapy.
Quite nice and fresh tasting, would definitely have again.
Day 12! New York Breakfast.
Black tea, cinnamon, vanilla, "flavours". It's supposed to taste like pancakes, presumably New York Pancakes.
Bag smells (bear with me on this) like the cough syrup I had as a kid. Not vanilla or cinnamon, something else.
Tea smells of vanilla, quite strongly. I've added milk.
Flavour is black tea, with a cinnamon after taste. Merest hint of vanilla, which I suspect I wouldn't detect if I wasn't looking for it.
I do not feel like I am drinking a pancake.
Day 11! Sticky Date Delight.
Rooibos, caramel, roasted chicory root, figs, marigold petals, dates, "flavourings" (oh they're back). Also rice flour, which is from the dried fruit.
Bag smells of sweet dates, bit of caramel scent in there. I'm drinking this one black. So bold of me.
Brewed tea smells warm and sweet, mostly caramel.
Flavour is caramel heavy. Little bit of fruity sweetness, but mostly caramel.
It's decent. I'm mildly enjoying it. Probably wouldn't buy a whole box of it. Would be nice after a meal when you want something sweet perhaps.
How do you have your tea?
Day 10! Just Peppermint.
Contains: Peppermint.
Bag smells of peppermint, with the slightest hint of peppermint.
Brewed tea has a strong scent of peppermint. With a good deep sniff, I can also detect peppermint.
Flavour is very pepperminty, with perhaps a whisper of peppermint. Definitely picking up the peppermint on this one.
Peppermint.
