I’ve had this tea in my cupboard for…. quite a while now. I don’t even want to hazard a guess. What I do know is that I purchased it from a now-closed mom-and-pop international store during a time in my life that was particularly rosy, so the tin and the tea both have a certain amount of nostalgia for me. With this tea, though, time and temperature are everything — too hot and/or too long, and it’s a bitter over-perfumed mess. However, if you get it right, it’s perfect. I have noticed that jasmine has aged, but that’s not a bad thing for me.

Flavors: Floral, Green, Jasmine

Preparation
165 °F / 73 °C 3 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 8 OZ / 236 ML

Bio

Calochortus likes plants and knitting and bacteria. She doesn’t have a very large tea allowance, so expect a lot of grocery store/local/home-grown/bagged teas. She’s grown up with tea, as it is part of (half of) her culture.

Her favorite teas are black and usually fruity or vanilla-y. She likes to put milk in her tea, too, but she’s trying to widen her palette with green teas and rooibos. She finds that tea leaves are great for composting, too.

Location

The fictional state of Washidamont (Eastern WA, Northern ID, and Western MT)
