Normally my pu notes consist of steeping details and observances…
I have a specific purpose for this note, though, and it’s that I drank this late (I mean LATE) at night after remembering boychik saying she can drink pu and still sleep… well, by golly, she is totally correct! I am so excited that I have more options for night time! And pu-erh, which is so meditative and relaxing, is such a wonderful choice to have. W00T!
Anyway, I love this one. It’s all warm cinnamon raisin bread with this effervescent mineral thing that dances on my tongue…. oh, it’s mighty delicious! I drank this while playing the second episode of Telltale Games’ “Game of Thrones” last night, and if it wasn’t so glitchy (knew I should’ve waited for a patch… I play on the PS3), it would’ve been a downright fantastic experience. Game of Thrones and this Puerh = heaven.

Oh, tea….
you’ve taken over my life, but I’m ok with that.

I’m pretty new to the tea scene, only drinking tea bags most of my life, but my friend ifjuly really got me into it (that sounds bad…). Butiki, Harney, and Verdant seem to be my ‘go to’ places to order from, but I LOVE trying new teas and companies. The variety is partly why I love tea so much…you can’t possibly get sick of it.
Well, that, and the transporting aroma of each cup…. I love that. It’s why I love wine, and tea does it just was well.

Really want to learn about different tea vendors out there, and about tea in general… it’s all so interesting to me.
I’m really excited to be part of this community and learn from all of you.

I don’t usually sweeten or add milk to my teas, so my notes are based on that….also, the rating system kind of throws me—I’ve always been horrible with giving number ratings to things, so don’t take those as set in stone (Honestly, I usually don’t even use the numbers…).

Everything in my cupboard has at least one serving left in it…I try to keep it updated. :) (I actually just added all my sample sizes to my cupboard, so MOST of the tea in my cupboard is of that ‘sample’ size…)

random info: music and art are pretty important in my life… i also thoroughly enjoy nerdy things like video games, anime, knitting, Doctor Who (the 10th is my favourite…), A Song of Ice and Fire, and random cartoons and such…. and i love, love, love to read. :)

I’m married to my best friend (I’ve known him since I was 15….we were totally going to be in a band together. It was going to be HUGE…), and we’ve got three kiddos. They’re pretty neat, too, even if they try to put sugar in my Verdant tea when they drink it….
