Golden Garden Estate FBOPF Ex. Spl. from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 10th, 2012
The first time I made this tea, I brewed it too long (5 minutes) and it was really strong, and too bitter, but when I brewed it for 3 minutes, it was just right. I often like my tea really strong and I have to brew it for a long time. This tea is good. It tastes a lot like other Ceylon teas I've tried, which I usually ...

This tea is a little weird. I'm not quite sure what to think of it. It's kind of bitter, and has a bitter aftertaste that I don't like very much, but it has a really deep flavor that I kind of like. I added cream and sugar.

Dec. 3rd, 2011
I don't know how to describe this tea. It tastes a little bit fruity, kind of peach-like maybe. It has a sort of smoky aroma. I don't think it's quite my cup of tea. It's a little too weird.

Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 3rd, 2011
This tea is really good. It has an awesome malty flavor that really hits the spot. I added cream and sugar. I'm impressed because it was the cheapest brand of tea bags at the store. Amazing value.
Update: I used to like this tea a lot, but my tastes have changed since then and now I just think it's pretty good, but...
Special Pouchong from Ten Ren Tea

Dec. 2nd, 2011
This tea isn't as bad as I thought it would be, from the way the leaf smelled. It's mild, and not too vegetable-like. I added cream and sugar.

This tea is mostly good, but it has a slight vegetal flavor and aroma that I don't like so much. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Lapsang Souchong – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 30th, 2011
This tea is pretty good. It has a nice smoky aroma, but it's too weak, and on the verge of being too bitter, like other Twinings black teas I've tasted. I really like the smoky flavor, though. I added cream and sugar.

Oct. 11th, 2011
This tea is pretty good. It has a nice, sweet aroma that reminds me of oolong. The flavor is pretty mild, though. I added cream and sugar.

Oct. 11th, 2011
This tea is okay. I'm not sure I like Darjeeling very much. I'm starting to think I don't, in general. It has a weird flavor that I don't particularly like. This one isn't too bad compared to other ones I've tried, though. I drank it with cream and sugar.

I like this tea. It has a mild, but full flavor. I think I like all of the Ceylon teas I've tasted. I added cream and sugar.

Oct. 9th, 2011
This tea has a sort of vegetable-like aroma that I don't like much. It's interesting, though. It has a kind of peachy flavor. I'm not a big fan of fruity teas, so I don't like it a lot, but it's okay. I added cream and sugar.

Sep. 22nd, 2011
This tea is okay. It has a sort of weird sweet vegetal taste to it. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to prepare it, because it's so fine that it goes through the strainer, and I have bits of leaf in my cup.

This tea has a nice dusty flavor. It's a little weak for my taste, but if I brew it for long enough it's good. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Silver Needle – Region: Fujian, China60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 11th, 2011
I was expecting this tea to be too weak for my taste, but it actually had a good amount of flavor. I'm not the best judge of gourmet teas, though, but I've started liking white teas more. The silver needle doesn't have as much of the tangy flavor of other white teas I've tasted.

Aug. 12th, 2011
This tea is really good. I drink it practically every day, and I like it better now than I did before. It brews really dark for a white tea. I only had to brew it for a couple of minutes, and with other white teas it takes me a lot longer to get enough flavor out of them. This one has a strong flavor that I like. It's ...
