I donated this one to my church a few weeks ago. We have Several ladies and a few men who like to drink tea. We have a fellowship meal on Wednesday nights. The woman in charge of the meals brewed a pot of this and a pot of another tea for tonight.
Ah, it is better than I remembered it being. We came out of a blizzard warning this morning, but the wind is still blowing so I was darned cold. There is nothing like a cup of hot tea to perk you up.
I love cats. I love alone time. I love sitting indoors on a cold winter night with a book or my knitting while drinking tea. I don’t have a sense of smell, so many of the more subtle flavors of tea escape me. Two of the things I CAN taste are bitter and sour, so any tea that has even a slightly bitter taste is nasty for me. And what others might perceive as pleasant tartness may be horribly sour for me.
I’m also a writer. I love writing, and a mug of hot tea helps me get through the hours sitting in front of the computer. Although I’m a comparatively new tea drinker, I’m jumping in feet first. Feel free to recommend any teas you think I might enjoy.
100-91 – Wowza! I want to keep this tea in the cupboard all the time.
75-90 – Very nice. It would be good to have this tea on hand from time to time.
60-74 – OK. Wouldn’t keep it in the cupboard, but I would drink it again.
45-59 – If a friend served this I would drink it to be polite, but it’s not really my cuppa.
Lower than 45 – Blech. It was too sour or bitter for my taste. Would not drink it again.

Yep, so much appreciation for a cup of tea to warm your hands and your spirit when you come in from the cold.
I really enjoy this one when I have it from time to time.
