Ahhh…it’s back under my roof. Basic black, milk-welcoming, cold-weather staple that it is. Four lovely bulk ounces, minus a really, really heaping teaspoon to boot myself out the door this morning.
With apologies to Robert Frost — this tea is lovely, dark, and deep. I’ve miles to go before I sleep. Glad I’ve got this one close to hand.
Continuing to enjoy the fact that a) I can actually find this inexpensively and loose leaf locally and b) You cannot ruin this tea, not by understeeping, oversteeping, being chintzy with the dry leaves, or spiking with condensed milk that’s just short of questionable expiration. It’s all good.
Wait, you can find this cheaply?!? Buy in bulk my friend, buy in bulk!!!
When trying to explain to my daughter’s boyfriend (who lives in Northern Ireland) the taste of a tea I was offering, I finally said, “Have you ever heard of PG Tips?” and he answered, “Of COURSE, I have!” This is very popular there! Some of our nicer groceries carry it but you can’t find it in many of them.
In my part of SW Missouri, most people’s idea of high-quality tea is flavored Lipton or grocery-store Tazo. So the ability to pick this up affordably at a little locally owned health food store is a real treat!
I missed that this is the loose leaf kind! I have to drive over 2 hours to get that….locally they only sell bags.
