I have arrived home somehow tired from work again! And thus I have decided for bold, strong black tea. And this tea seems like a good fit. Translation of name is “globetrotter”, which I am not certainly. Though it seems I have visited most countries in my family. At least based on that I always start when we are playing Ticket to Ride with my nieces and other family members. They have been there last week and although they arre panic attack triggers, I really enjoyed playing this board game with them.

But back to the tea from Bremen. The grade is GFOP, which is, not that great; but “mischung” of Chinese, Ceylon and Indian tea sounded good in theory. Actually, in practice, it isn’t bad either. But it tastes somehow flat. There is mediocre level of malt, citrusy and sweet potatoes (maybe?) taste. But in the very same intensity, there is something like metallic taste — a bit coppery. It doesn’t mean I am eating copper on daily basis, but you know that feel I think?

As a daily drinker — why not, afterall it’s not so expensive. But I am somehow glad I had only a sample of this :)

Ashman and I are always LAST playing Ticket to Ride! My daughter married a young man from Northern Ireland and he has travelled a lot, so he goes first every time! Youngest and Superanna may be catching up with him, though…
