I was opening the deep drawer where I keep most of my teas, wondering what to have tonight, when I caught sight of my DAVIDs Tea calendar. You know, I have plenty of tea left in there, and I should drink it up. I opened the little drawers at random. No, not that one. No, I didn’t rally care for this one. I’m not in the mood for that one. What about…?

I finally settled on this one, forgetting the yerba mate. I hope it won’t keep me awake. I actually like the flavor more this time around. Still a bit artificial, but nice.

I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.

I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.

100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.
