Day 11 of the 24 Days of Tea

The Universe really wanted me to try this again. I am feeling congested from allergies or something today, so it felt appropriate to brew this. I haven’t been in the mood to try it again which is why I am so backlogged on the advent calendar. But today I pulled an exciting one and my OCD is not allowing me to do things out of order, so now the pressure is on to consume the teas so I can try the one I got today.

I still don’t like chamomile, but today I am finding this tea a lot nicer. It brewed up a nice pink, which the other sample didn’t do and has a bit more depth to it that it didn’t have before. I still don’t think I would stock it, but I do like it better.

Bumping the rating up a bit on it.

My passion for tea started at a very young age, thanks to my grandmothers beautiful china tea cup collection. I use to brew Tetley’s or whatever version of Orange Pekoe she had in the cupboard and pick out my favourite tea cup to use. It wasn’t until I was in my late teens that I really started to develop a passion for it. My town had the Urban Tea Merchant and it was there I was exposed to high tea and the very fancy Mariage Freres brand. When they switched over to The O Dor, my girlfriend and I found salvation in going for a lovely cup of tea and decompress with some tea scones.

It has since become an obsession. I have a tea cupboard, filled with a very large variety of teas. I also use the Breville Tea Maker to make my tea. I favour black teas, with a close second being North African Mint Green Tea. Because I have the luxury of working from home, I get to enjoy a wonderful cup of tea every morning, and the journey resets daily.
