I think it’s crazy how my tea cravings change from week to week. Sometimes I want something fruity, other times, only dessert-y will do. Sometimes, I want pure and unadorned tea. I want to taste nothing but the leaf. Not too long ago, I would have told you that green oolongs are by far my favorite. These days, I’m having a renewed love affair with Japanese greens.
This particular tea tastes like grass and minerals. It’s full and brothy and also a bit drying, but not astringent. Sweet. The taste reminds me of summer somehow. I think I’ll cold steep the used leaves. Too tired for another cup now. :)

lol – I’m the same way :))
me too! that makes shopping all the better cause it’s ESSENTIAL to have at least one of each. Hoard all the teas!
I buy a bunch and then I try to swap them away when my cravings change. It’s so cost inefficient. But better than stale tea, I think.
I find if I wait long enough my tastes change again… and then I like the old tea better, ha ha
