Another travel mug tea! And I oversteeped this one. May have to dilute. Sigh. At least it doesn’t get terribly astringent, more just… too strong.

Thank you for the sample!
I was doing a bit of tidying up yesterday and found this little sample packet tucked behind a whole bunch of stuff on my dresser (because I was hiding yet another tea package from the husband….;p). It must have fallen out of the bag and I wasn’t aware. So I had this for a month or so and didn’t even know!
This tea is really lovely. The base is not astringent and really juicy. The peach notes are natural and very juicy, I was picturing that sweet juice running down my chin after I took the first bite of a fresh peach.
Secondary notes are buttery pastry. There is just a hint of spiciness right at the end but doesn’t linger. I can’t pinpoint what spice it is, but it is good.
The resteep held up really well in flavour.

Huzzah! Tea once again tastes good. That metallic/gasoline-y edge is gone from my beverages. I can’t begin to tell you what a relief that is. I’m still on the antibiotic for 5 more days, but hopefully I’m done with the weird flavors. It was horrible to sip something that I know I like and have it taste like that.

So. It’s cool and overcast and dreary in Fargo today, just the right weather for tea sipping. I have several teas from A Quarter to Tea, and it’s hard to choose a favorite, but this one might be it. Tonight when I come home from my knitting group I think I’ll try another one. I haven’t had a bad one yet. I think there is more of this one at their Etsy store. If you like mild, sweet-ish dessert teas, you might want to try this one. It really is yummy.
