Bio
My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.
Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.
I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!
Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)
Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.
I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta
95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around
94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase
89-80 Pretty good, above average
79-70 Acceptable
69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it
59-50 Ick
49 and below Nasty

I have tried a camel’s breath pu-erh also, and I agree with you, it does taste a lot better than it sounds… when I first received a sampling from a friend, I thought, eww… I don’t really want to try something called camel’s breath. LOL But, it was quite nice actually.
I will have to keep my eyes open for this as I adore pu erh. :)
… that is definitely not the most appealing name, I must agree!
I wonder how such an unappealing name became a sort of standard? I agree- really weird!
Yeah, I can’t say pu-erh has really struck my fancy yet… but Camel’s Breath wouldn’t be the one to make me take the leap :)
