This is an okay breakfast tea for me. I can get three steeps out of it, and it takes well to lots of milk and sugar. I try to drink it plain, to see what the notes are, and nothing in particular stands out. Not a reflection on the tea; more a reflection on my tea rookie status. I’ll finish the canister but likely not re-order.
Woke up one morning, January 2012, and simply couldn’t take coffee anymore. Every day since, have been amazed at how much better tea is—better tasting, better for my mental state.
Currently love black tea blends in the morning, sencha all afternoon, and white teas at night. Favorite retailers so far (not affiliated with any of course) are Den’s Tea, Harney & Sons, Butiki, Joy’s Teaspoon, and of course Verdant.
Other joys besides tea: books, travel, dogs, perfume, and Bikram yoga.
