tea-sipper drank Cerisier by Lupicia

4321 tasting notes

Back note from before I left town, but also… I see Steepster has been down for three days. sigh.

From Cameron B! Thanks again! Sometimes I like the idea of tasting a black tea at night, and that is when decaf is helpful. But really I think it is just the light base here for showcasing a super strong cherry flavor. This cherry is not particularly medicinal OR the candy type… so I like it. It’s almost like if black cherries were treated like maraschino cherries. It’s Lupicia cherry, I guess! As their flavors are usually on point. So when I’m craving cherry, I will go for this one. I’m glad I like it! … Didn’t notice I should have been tasting peach until I read the description… this is full cherry to me.
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for a mug // 20 minutes after boiling // 1 – 1 1/2 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 3-4 min

Yay, so happy to see teas finding loving homes! I just don’t tend to like cherry teas unless they’re on the tart side.

I love this one! I can’t wait for it to be available again. I would definitely buy more next time around.

Hi! I love tea and trying new ones – it adds a bit of variety to my day! Books, music, TV & movies are my thing… and tea, of course.

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
