Brand: Lupicia
Type: Flavored Green
Brew Time & Temperature: 2 minutes, boiling
Leaf Appearance: Large, rolled green tea leaves with some dried yellow flower petals (?)
Color: Light yellow-green, clear
Smell: Grape candy is the most dominant smell, floral, sweet
Recommended with/as: As is
Rating: 7/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
Well this tastes a lot like it smells- like grape candy. However, while it does have the grape taste (I'd say it's a mix between artificial candy grape and purple grapes), it isn't terribly sweet. It's mixed with the grassy flavor of the tea, which balances it out and makes it actually taste like tea rather than warm, watered down grapes. It ends on a slightly bitter note with the taste of the grape lingering in the mouth afterwards. There's little astringency (which is unlike the average Lupicia flavored green, which leaves the throat at least a little dry) and was pretty light tasting all around. However, there isn't really much to this tea other than the grape since the green tea is sort of overpowered by the flavoring. Overall, it's okay, but I wouldn't recommend it for the one-sided taste. I think I actually bought 50g of this a long time ago since it was pretty cheap, but at that time I haven't really had much of any tea. Maybe try it iced?
Other notes:
Man, I hate to admit it, but it seems like I barely talk or chat to anyone anymore (especially people I know in real life). There's that girl that I like and we chat a ton about random stuff almost daily, but she's out this weekend, so I haven't talked to anyone except my dog today. I did say a few words to a guy selling honey though, but I doubt that even counts. Anyway, even before I really started chatting to that girl, I used to chat with some of my internet friends on Steam pretty often, but even now I don't talk to them much; we do have some conversations once in a while, but they don't last very long. It doesn't help that almost all of my communication outside of school is online, either. I would try to meet with my friends in person and hang out with them, but pretty much all of them are busy on weekends or are with other people (some of them I doubt are busy, but I haven't really hung out or talked with them in a super long time so I feel that might be awkward). Oh well.
In other news, I found a bird's egg while walking my dog! I'm pretty sure it fell out of a nest during the storm last night, and isn't viable anymore since it dropped a bit of a height, and there's a not too bad crack on the bottom (it might be hollow since it's really light, and when I tried candling it I could only see the yolk inside and nothing else). I couldn't find the nest either since the only tree nearby was super high up. Just in case, though, I have it in a makeshift nest, but I don't own a lamp or anything for heat (so I don't think it'll survive) On Monday, I'll bring it to school to my bio teacher and see what he thinks or if he wants it. It's small and bluish-white, with brown speckles all over.

Day 90: C'est a Toi
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Blend (Black, Puerh, Oolong)
Brew Time & Temperature: 3 minutes, boiling
Leaf Appearance: Mix of dull black/brown roasted teas, small/broken up; they all look relatively the same/I wouldn't be able to tell apart the oolong, black, and puerh tea by looking at it (there are some curled teas, twigs, minor differences though)
Color: Deep orange-brown (mainly orange); clear, but a little hard to see since it's darkEart
Smell: Earthy/smoky notes, followed by a fishy smell and floral notes
Recommended with/as: As is, maybe sweetener
Rating: 7.5/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
This is a very interesting blend of tea- the only thing it's really missing now is green tea. Anyway, although it is a blend of three different teas, I think the most dominant taste (and smell) is the black tea. The taste begins with the earthy, somewhat bitter taste, which is followed by a light sweetness. It's a bit creamy/malty, with very light mint too.Throughout the whole tea is a smoky taste (probably from the lapsang souchong, but I have never actually had that so I'm not sure), which gives the tea a bit of a body and strength/savory taste. It's somewhat smooth, but it leaves the throat a tiny bit dry and a somewhat different, oily (?) texture in the mouth afterwards.
I did try it with honey just because I have a sore throat from laughing too much (see below), and it was pretty much the same; it didn't make the tea better, nor did it make it any worse. It did get rid of some of the smokiness and brought out a very light taste (I can't really describe it, but it has a very, very subtle sourness to it) from either the puerh or oolong. Overall, it was an interesting blend, but I feel like I need to try more of the teas in it, namely the puerh and lapsang, to have a better idea. It is good though!
Other notes:
Well guys, it looks like I'm in the final stretch! Hopefully they go well, and I'll try not to rush these reviews (but no promises, since finals are coming up and I need to start studying). Maybe I'll try making stats or something if I have the time, and I can finally start reviewing the teas from Vital Tea and Red Blossom. I'm hyped!
In other news, school went decently. There wasn't really anything interesting other than 60's day for Juniors and my friends played music for that. After school was the fun part though. I hung out with that girl I like and some other friends, and we ate some food and chilled at the park for a bit. Later, I biked to In N Out with another friend and we got hamburgers and all that, and then made up random stories while heading home in the dark. When I got home, I won an auction for a few Modest Mouse CDs on ebay for only $10 with shipping (We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, Good News for People Who Love Bad News), and now I'm making this review. My family left for Disneyland/southern California earlier, so I'm alone at the house with my dog. You know, I think things are looking up for me now and I can't wait until summer rolls around.

Day 89: Yume
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Flavored Black
Brew Time & Temperature: 3 minutes, boiling
Leaf Appearance: Medium-small black tea leaves, with added rose petals, a few twigs
Color: Golden orange, clear
Smell: Floral, sweet, vanilla
Recommended with/as: As is, iced
Rating: 6/10 (oh man first tea that I've rated this, but I think I should go back and change some ratings for other teas)
Tasting notes and thoughts:
After I've had so many teas now, I just can't stand any of Lupicia's teas with vanilla. This tea is no exception, since it mostly just tastes like a mix of random, bland fruits with some dull sweetness from the vanilla. It's a bit tangy, but ends with the taste of the vanilla. The rose is slightly noticeable and goes decently with the fruit, but personally, I think there's just too many flavors that taste too artificial for me to like. I will admit that it's somewhat light which helps with the flavor and would be good iced, but there's much better teas out there.
Other notes:
Well that essay went worse than I expected. We didn't have books so I had to guess the page on one of the quotes, and my analysis was somewhat subpar. I'm probably going to just rely on my AP Bio grade and try to get really good grades in English tests/projects for the rest of the year to keep my GPA. Also, the math test was okay, we finished all of it, but a few of the problems were hard to figure out (and of course, I was the one who had to do it). Of course, the other class/teacher got much easier problems and were able to use their calculators when we couldn't. I guess it's okay since it means that next year will be super easy for me if I can do decently in this class, but ugh some of the problems can be impossible.
Also, for some reason, I actually didn't feel too bad about doing crappy on the essay or test today. Like, I kind of just accepted that I tried and was somewhat content afterwards, which is a first for me. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing, but all I know is that I need to start getting my shit together in those classes before the year ends (I do have a 97% in AP bio now though).

Day 88: Kiwi
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Flavored Black
Brew Time & Temperature: 3 minutes, boiling
Leaf Appearance: Medium small, curled black leaves with rock sugar, dull green leaves
Color: Dark, golden orange; clear
Smell: Sweet, fruity (I guess it's kiwi but it's a little hard to tell), maybe some mint
Recommended with/as: As is, iced
Rating: 7/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
Quick review today since I'm doing stuff (see other notes). Anyway, I guess this is a pretty average fruit flavored tea; it's actually pretty bland. Although its smooth and everything, it just lacks a lot in taste. When you drink it, you first taste the earthy, sort of brothy tea base. It's followed by a really weak and slightly sweet kiwi flavor; I think that if I didn't know this was kiwi tea I wouldn't be able to match it to the fruit. It ends right after that with little aftertaste, and actually is a little bit astringent/makes the throat feel a tiny bit dry. I've had much better fruit-flavored teas, honestly.
Other notes:
So, today I spent a ton of time studying for a math group test tomorrow (statistics/data analysis is fun, but god I hate probability so much) and while I write this review I'm practicing writing the in class essay for To Kill a Mockingbird tomorrow. Other than that, though, nothing much (my parents did come home though).
Oh, and apparently my family is going to Disneyland this weekend, but I can't come since there's not enough seats in the car + I have school and stuff (tests on monday and tuesday woo!). So, I get to spend this weekend alone in the house. Hooray...?

Day 87: Breakfast Earl Grey
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Flavored Black
Brew Time & Temperature: 2 minutes 30 seconds, boiling (only a cup today)
Leaf Appearance: Small, broken up dark brown leaves (not as small as dust, though)
Color: Very dark brown/crimson red; very dark (but with enough light you can see through)
Smell: Bergamot/citrus, earthy, a bit sweet, creamy/malty
Recommended with/as: As is, milk
Rating: 8.5/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
So, today I just brewed in a mug instead of a whole pot, since I was too lazy to empty out the tea pot filled with milk tea and also it would probably be too much (no appetite). As for the tea, it really is a breakfast tea- super dark and strong. The main taste was the bitter earthiness of the tea, followed by the sharp citrus of the bergamot. It doesn't linger very long after drinking either- once its out of the mouth, you don't taste it at all. Adding a bit of milk and honey did help with the bitterness/strength of the tea, though. Overall, it's a good Earl Grey (like before, I still need to try brands other than Lupicia because apparently Lupicia has a really good Earl Grey) and would make for a really good breakfast tea. I'd drink it daily.
Other notes:
Nothing really today other than school (took that AP bio test, it was okay) and chores. Pretty much I just cleaned up the house a bit for my family since they're coming back tomorrow, walked the dogs, cleaned dishes, things like that. I've been studying for a history test tomorrow, and just so I remember I'm planning to practice writing the inclass essay on To Kill a Mockingbird (I might post it here because this is a writing blog, isn't it?) and also practice math problems so I can get faster at doing statistics problems.
Oh, and also one of my friends gave me a tarot card set as part of a belated birthday present, along with a really nice note and big bag of skittles. In a lapse of judgement, I ate all of the skittles which is the reason why I couldn't really drink more than a cup of tea. It doesn't help that I drank a bottle of the milk tea I made which had a metric crap ton of sugar/honey in it.

Day 86: Nilgiri BOP
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Black
Brew Time & Temperature: 2 minutes, boiling
Leaf Appearance: Very small, dark brown leaves with some reddish or yellow pieces
Color: Dark orange-red; clear
Smell: Average black tea (earthy, a bit malty, etc.)
Recommended with/as: As is, milk
Rating: 7/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
Well, this is a bit of an average black tea. It certainly has the earthiness and strength/briskness of a black tea, but unlike others, it lacks the maltiness or creaminess. Instead, it has a slight citrus taste and bitterness, despite following the recommended brew time. There are also sour/acidic notes combined with fruit. It has a bit of astringency and does make my throat dry, so I'd suggest this with milk and sweetener. Overall, it's an average black tea that would be a good morning tea, but I wouldn't suggest it.
Other notes:
Oh man, Japantown was pretty fun, except now I'm broke (spent $70). I got some mochi and daifuku for my family, ate some katsudon, drank some milk tea, bought the CD of the OP for the second season of Aldnoah.Zero (which was actually a somewhat decent price, considering how much I pay for imported CD/DVDs and the price of Japantown stuff), and also got an Alpacasso for my friend (guess who). Overall, I'm pretty happy and it sure was better than whatever happened in school today.
In other news, I'm home alone for the next three days since my parents are in Reno. It was going well until I was making dinner, and I saw that THEY LEFT ME NO RICE. It's a dilemma since I feel like if I make rice using the cooker I'll make too much + waste it, but if I make it using a pot it's too much work/time (and I might screw that up). I'll see what I'll do tomorrow since I'm going to study for my AP bio test today and also I need to actually eat dinner.

Day 85: Sencha 'Tanegashima'
Brand: Lupicia
Type: Green
Brew Time & Temperature: Gongfu brewing today
Leaf Appearance: Medium-dark green bladelike green tea leaves; larger than usual
Color: Bright yellow-green (mainly yellow); clear
Smell: Grassy, sweet (like the description says, it's a bit vanilla-like), vegetal
Recommended with/as: As is
Rating: 9/10
Tasting notes and thoughts:
This is one of the first unflavored green teas that I really enjoyed, and since it's super hard to find it made me start shopping at other tea shops (O-cha.com!). I think it also made me get into gongfu brewing, which was another plus (not for my wallet though). So, this tea has a bit of a special place in my heart. Anyway, since this is my second time with Lupicia's Sencha Tanegashima and that I've tried other brands, I think I can give this a pretty fair review.
On first taste, this is a very smooth tea, no matter how much I screw up while brewing. It starts out with very light umami notes, then into a grassy, slightly tangy taste, and finishes sweet. There is also a very subtle, berry-like taste that underlies the grassy notes, which I think gives it the sweet finish. There is little astringency and is actually pretty light, but leaves a little bit of a dry mouth feeling after drinking. I think I got up to 6 or 7 brews before it got too weak, but over each subsequent brew, it got sweeter and more green colored, but less strong. Overall, I like this tea a lot (no bias, obviously) since it is really easy to brew and tastes great- unlike most of Lupicia's other greens, this one is more light and sweet, rather than brothy or somewhat salty.
Other notes:
Well, tomorrow I have my Japantown trip, and I'm pretty hype about that (but not about all of the tests/other work I have to make up. I do get an extra day to study for an AP bio test, though). I did go to SF today and took the DUKW tours and hang out near the pier, which was actually really fun, but the weather turned from a nice chill to super windy and I can see my breath cold. Other than that, nothing today. I'm probably going to spend an hour or two after this review studying for AP bio and getting ready for tomorrow.
