Since I like this one so well, I did not brew it during the David’s 24 days of tea. Instead I saved it for a cold evening of writing. This is that evening. ( or afternoon, since I got an early start on writing.) It’s been below zero (Fahrenheit) all day with windchills in the negative 30s. When the wind is light my apartment is quite warm. but when the wind is blowing, it doesn’t seem able to heat up. Not that I’m complaining! I have tons of nice warm things to put on to keep warm.

I know this tea isn’t everyone’s favorite but I really like it. A friend from Winnipeg picked 50 grams up for me and she’ll bring it when she comes to stay on the 26th. Since this is turning out to be a much colder winter than what we’ve had the last few years, I am enjoying drinking hot tea again. :)

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.
