This was a sipdown, and not one that I feel I need to replace. I think my tastes have turned elsewhere for night time teas, like nice flavored honeybush, chamomile blends with a little more going on, or even plain mint.
Speaking of tastes going elsewhere…as of this morning I seem to have lost my sense of taste and smell almost completely. I thought my Earl Grey at breakfast was unthinkabky light. Then the Christmas Green I made Ashman was little more than hot water. I made a matcha latte with my cheapest matcha and could taste the sugar but that was it. Hopefully, these services will be restored shortly. Thanks, Covid.

Oh no! I lost my senses of smell and taste when I had Covid, it was awful. Hopefully yours return in double-quick time!
Nattie – how long did it take?
About two weeks for me. I heard that smelling certain strong scents brings it back quicker, so I huffed coffee, mint, orange etc. every day and I genuinely think it might have helped. My parents both lost theirs with Covid and it took them a lot longer to get it back.
Good to know. Once I realized that my sense of taste and of smell seemed to be affected, I started sniffing bottles of essential oils that I have on hand. I will continue to try to get my senses back on track.
You’re probably already well on your way to getting it back! Fingers crossed.
Oh no, ashmanra! It’ll come back, though. Mine comes and goes. Luckily nothing I can taste or smell is off except for that whiff of my BO today, haha. I was relieved and horrified at the same time :P
derk: That is hilarious! I just huffed the blackcurrant tea to see what I should make for breakfast. I will not be making blackcurrant tea.
