Hello, hello! Today's been a rough day already so I decided to drink a lot of tea. I didn't make the mistake I made yesterday and drink three cups of Peppermint. That gave me terrible heartburn... but it was so tasty...

I finished my sampling of, uh, the sampler. I'd say that overall I wasn't in love with the flavors. There were some standouts but I have a bad impression of Raspberry Zinger and Black Cherry Berry - despite my coworker's gushing praise - wasn't great.
I did like Country Peach Passion a lot which surprised me. I don't usually go for peach flavors outside of a very specific peach candy. But it was great! My other favorite surprised me too - True Blueberry. Again, I'm not a blueberry person normally. It took me forever to get over my "ew, fruit!" reaction to blueberry muffins. (I love fruit but just not fruity baked goods.) I've never had a good actual blueberry either. They've always been mushy or the skin is leathery or they're just flavorless. True Blueberry was like concentrated blueberry flavor and scent without any of those pitfalls.
Wild Berry Zinger was okay. Not great, not terrible, but just alright. The "zinger" was definitely noticeable on first tasting but faded away.
I'm going to work my way through the rest of these teas before I buy anything new. My Republic of Tea order should be coming in soon though!
