i fear, i fear, the end is near…… well not really, i still have a good ounce or two left but i love it so much that my supply is dwindling down!! i’m very very sad about this….and especially flummoxed that LB (and LB chocolate genmaicha!!) have all but disappeared off the site (out of stock, with no notice whatsoever) in what appears to have been a swift, and most unceremonious clearing of inventory. i shall find the culprit/s! oh who am i kidding, it behooves one to overstock on something of this caliber. if i had the money, i’d buy the entire village!

as for the burning question “would you recommend this tea?” my response is a resounding “No! Never!!!” ;)

Flavors: Brown Toast, Chocolate, Cocoa, Dark Bittersweet, Honey, Roasted, Roasted Barley, Roasted Nuts, Toasty

love tea in every form- from bagged to loose leaf..commercial to niche. i am intrigued by it all & want to learn as much as i can through my 5 senses (tho with tea i’ll presumably be using 3)..am a very sensorial person. love music, perfume, poetry, graphic design, India, Malaysia, Moorish architecture, oh….and tea!

apparently i’m really out of the loop here since i appear to be among the only ones who have not yet tried Golden Moon, Butiki, 52teas, Mandala, Teavivre or Della Terra. i mean REALLY. i need to start lifting this rock up over my head y’all. from the looks of things, i’ve been reenacting Groundhog’s Day every hour on the hour with my uniformed choices. i seek to be anointed!

also, don’t take my numbers too literally; they can’t possibly speak to the actual quality of the tea, much less to the constancy of my own perceptions! what i may feel to be an 88 one day, could very well be a 91 the next, or even 100, depending on my taste buds, blood sugar levels, neuronal firings or planetary alignment ;)
