drank Oriental Beauty by Primula Tea
1719 tasting notes

I have had such a major headache the last few days that I haven’t cared much about writing tasting notes or even drinking new tea. It finally seems to have subsided so I am starting small.

This has a listing already under Primula but that one said it was a black tea. This one is green tea with jasmine. The flower is pretty enough but too tall for my 15 oz pot. The green tea is not tied as attractively as I normally see in these things but at least it did not fall apart. The taste is awfully light. Maybe this one is way pat its prime. Besides a light jasmine there is another note that tastes like globe amaranth to me, even if there is none present. I do not like globe amaranth. Fortunately that flavor is not so present as to prevent me from drinking the pot.

Kind of pretty but if you are really looking for a conversation piece, serve jasmine dragon pearls instead.

Sorry about your headache, glad you’re feeling a little better…not used to not seeing your notes on my dashboard :-)

I’m very glad you’re feeling better. I have never had a migraine in my life, and I can’t even imagine a headache that lasts for multiple days. I hope it was a one-time thing!

It’s not a migraine. I am one of those ‘lucky’ people who get to wear a CPAP mask at night. The replacement headbands don’t stretch correctly and so to stop leaks you have to tighten it up. When you do that it strains the neck and you end up with a horrendous headache that eases up as the day progresses. Then it starts again next morning. My O2 levels are fine (I’ve checked them), it is just the headband. I’ve bought off the internet without success. It’s time to pay 4 times as much and get one from the local supplier.

Yep, had it my whole life but didn’t know what it was until a few years ago. Headaches are common with bad headbands.
