Kiper's Lil Tea Shop

I had this one this afternoon on my break. I’ve decided I have HAVE to stop eating whatever and whenever I want. My blood glucose isn’t awful, but it was 132 this morning, about 15-20 higher than normal. So that means I get to drink more tea!

This one is okay. Nothing to really write home about. Not bad. It’s not sour or astringent or bitter. It’s not great. Neither the chocolate nor strawberry comes out, and the smoke is very light. I think I’ll have a favorite later tonight to make up for it.

I forgot I ordered this tea from Etsy, but I found it this afternoon in my mailbox. See what pneumonia does to your brain? Sheesh!

The tea company is Kiper’s Lil Tea Shop. I came across them and decided to give this one a try. I hoped it would be as good as 52Teas Winter Cabin Chai. Not the same, of course, with the cacao nibs and strawberry instead of other spices, but I had hopes it would be as enjoyable.

It’s not quite as enjoyable. It’s very nice and I know I’ll enjoy it. I don’t get the strawberry or chocolate, and the smoke is very light. I get no bitterness or astringency, so that is a huge plus. My rating may well go up when I’ve recovered a bit more and regained my sense of smell. Right now this is a pleasant tea without much flavor. But I look forward to trying it again in a week or so.
