Brought this one out tonight. I have about 40-45 grams of it left. I like it, but it does leave an oily residue on the cup and the teapot. That’s not enough to lose it points, just something to be aware of.

It brews up rather pale and cloudy. I like the creamy minty flavor. The ‘leaf’ (I put that in quotes because it is more than half additives) is very pretty and festive. A lovely holiday tea.

It is still snowing here and my parking lot has not been plowed in over 24 hours so no one is getting out or in. Cars have tried, and now they are stranded in the lot like scattered toys abandoned by a spoiled child. When they do come to plow i9t will be a nightmare. I am a little worried about getting to my oncology appointment tomorrow and may need to call an Uber.

Flavors: Creamy, Mint

Bio

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.
