I have a loooot of this tea and need to drink it because it is past the best by date. It is still so good, though. Maybe it is one of those oolongs that improves with age. Between getting it as a gift from Superanna who gave me some, tried it and wanted some of her own and ordered more, and then being gifted a large amount from Kawaii that I shared around, we have had a lot of this tea!
I almost made the milk oolong that beerandbeancurd sent but I want to try that one hot first, and this was served with “lunch” outside as Ashman works away on the garden preparations. Lunch was cheese and crackers served with Bonne Maman Cherry Preserves.
The cheeses were a new-to-us Gouda called Summer Fields, mozzarella, extra sharp cheddar, and (drum roll) the bread cheese that gmathis told me about! We finally found some and chose the bacon variety.
This was flash chilled in the Revolution tea shaker. Four batches total were had. So smooth up front with a bitter hint at the back of the swallow.
The three big jasmine vines have burst into bloom so I need to come up with another little plate of somethings and bring out a pot of hot jasmine tea before our caffeine cut off at 3.

Ooh…I didn’t know there were multiple varieties of the baked cheese!
I saw plain and jalapeño in addition to the bacon one we bought!
Ah, the night-blooming jasmine is bursting in SoCal! Every time I’m outside at nothing-good-happens o’clock for work and get a noseful, it’s (some) sweet recompense for a rude awakening!
