I wanted a rich smooth tea this afternoon, so I decided on this one. It was the sample I received with my last WP order. I wanted rich and smooth and that is what I got. My sinuses are a little more open today so I was able to taste the complex subtleties in this tea. This is a superior tea.
We’re expected 8-10 inches moire of snow tomorrow and Sunday. I am going no where and doing nothing but sit, read, knit, and drink tea.
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.

You’re welcome for a visit in our neck of the woods. Nothing but a week of gray sky ahead, but at least the precipitation will be liquid!
