70

Trying to finish up some of the samples I received from Davids Tea avec the 24 days of tea calendar.

This was one I had been rationing. A very good cinnamon tea. Cinnamon is the prominent flavour, but I can pick up on the cloves as well. Most of the other smells and ingredients blend into the background.

I rated this tea quite low last time, but I think that’s because it is kind of one dimensional. It tastes like a Valentines Cinnamon heart candy. I like it, but I don’t know if I would keep it in my stash.

It was lovely to drink last night when I didn’t want caffeine though. I am bumping up the rating a few notches from 67 to 70.

Flavors: Cinnamon, Cloves

Preparation
Boiling 7 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 17 OZ / 500 ML

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.
