mrs.stenhouse12 drank Pumpkin Patch by DAVIDsTEA

1186 tasting notes

Ugh ugh ugh..I have been in warp speed mode at work for the past few days, starting last Wednesday..had an excellent weekend and now back at work. But had my painting class tonight and it went better so that’s a plus, helps me take my mind off all the things I am trying to figure out at work lol (at least not people problems, just ones relevant to projects haha).

This tea was calling my name tonight. Yes it is late, and yes it’s a black tea, but I needed a cozy cup of goodness with some warm spicing tonight. It’s starting to rain outside, so it feels like a nice autumn evening for this one. Oh, the bf also went back to work for 14 days up north, so that always makes my day a little less bright too. Hence the need for good, comforting tea. This is the perfect choice right now. See previous notes!

Hello all, I am an electrical engineer (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it was excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee! (unless it’s a really good cappuccino or latte, or decent decaf haha)

I enjoy a variety of teas – current favorites being ripe and raw pu’erhs, chinese black teas and herbal/green rooibos blends. I also enjoy white, green, and oolong teas, although I tend to drink them more in the warmer months. I have also tried matcha and guayusa, but I don’t drink them too often as I am a bit sensitive to caffeine. As a result I don’t drink black teas as often as I used to, but in moderation I can still enjoy a wide variety of teas.

Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid most other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a bit, but that’s ok. However I have tried almonds and found out I can eat them, so I have been trying a few teas with them in them.
