The first time I tried this tea was in Berlin. It came with a huge breakfast (which was elegantly served on a 3-tier tray!). I was totally wowed by the tea when it arrived because it smelt soooooooo good. It was the aroma of freshly baked cookies! How lovely! I could sense the jealousy of my friend who ordered coffee instead :P The tea was sweet and slightly nutty – it’s like biscotti minus the calories. I personally think vanilla and rooibos is one of the best combinations in the world!

I was in a crappy mood yesterday after work and I took this tea as a form of self-medication. :P Ooooh…. just as yummy as it was! And then the world became beautiful again ;)

A devilish girl who lives up to the post-80s youth stereotype – hedonistic, frivolous and rebellious – except I love traditional afternoon tea rather than a quick caffeine fix at Starbucks.

I make a living off others’ criminal activities. It’s a busy job and I really wish I could retire, so I can become a full-time afternoon tea connoisseur instead. :j

I love any tea that has nice scent, great flavour and lovely packaging. My current top favourite brands are Mariage Freres, T2, and THE O DOR. ;)

I am now practising mindfulness as a way of living. I decide to use tea tasting as a means to meditate in my daily life. My tasting notes here will therefore be my meditation notes :)

I’ve got no time to update my Pinterest and blog since I became a mom. Nevertheless, if you feel curious, you are most welcomed to visit these abandoned pages:
