I need some caffeination before heading out – I often forget about this tea, but thanks to KittyLovesTea who recently reviewed a swap box sample of it, I was reminded.
It’s light and floral and delicate, but without the weakness of flavour I loathe so much in Dammann Frères’ teas. Ofelia, along with many of Lupicia’s blacks really prove that ‘delicate’ doesn’t necessarily have to imply ‘weak’.
In other news, I see some gelato and a lecture at the British School in my near future.

Check yumchaa as well – my stash is not very fresh which really makes a difference with their teas ( natural flavours and all) but I would be glad to send you some. Same address as for the box ?
( my packing tape collection has more stars crying for the stage)
Haha, oh, I do love tea, but I seriously CANNOT resist the promise of another peek at your packing tape stash! Thank you, that’s terribly sweet of you – and yes, it’s the Rome address. I feel very spoiled.
give me a while (and be kind to the teas, it´s old stash), but early next week! I will let you know for sure when I sent it.
packing tape selection now starting..

I got to hold an audition for that!
(though sadly, now I think of it, if I use a pre-paid no-weight envelope I would not be able to use tape. Ok, that is it, you are getting a recycled envelope need-to-go-to-post-office envelope instead!)
Awww. You’re the BEST. After Kitty’s ponies and your fancy tape, I can’t wait to get home, open my many boxes of craft stuff and step up my tea shipping game. Just wait.
