Much gentler than Earl grey it’s the same idea. I find it pleasently soothing wheras Earl Grey is a bit strong most of the time.

Been a while since I’ve had this but remember it as a very fine oolong. Delicate but complex.

It’s another teabag work tea. Hot liquis and brown – definetly needs milk, but otherwise acceptable. It’s good that a main brand supermarket tea has gone FairTrade.

Very nice – surprisingly chocolaty without being sweet in any way.

Lovely. Very earthy flavour from the PuErh but the citrus overtones keep it all delicate and extremely refreshing.

I cave, bike, read and drink tea!

I spend far too much time on LibraryThing where I ran across this little gem:

The Tea Party

I had a little tea party
This afternoon at three.
’Twas very small-
Three guest in all-
Just I, myself and me.

Myself ate all the sandwiches,
While I drank up the tea;
’Twas also I who ate the pie
And passed the cake to me.
