First tea of the day and it’s almost 7 PM here. I brewed a big pot of this. Upon removing the brew basket from the teapot the ice wine aroma that Kittenna mentioned hit me immediately. It is like a very sweet white dessert wine or apple juice and honey. I wouldn’t describe the taste as juicy, though because the astringency is very low. This tea’s texture is incredibly creamy. This is a very nice tea, and a surprisingly good pairing for the green vegetable curry I am having for dinner!

Tea means so many things to me, it is so deep and it is revealing new meaning to me all the time.

Tea is a mindfulness practice, and a doorway through which to explore different philosophies, cultures, and historical times. Tea is hospitality and a way of communion. Tea is an art, a ritual, and a tradition. Tea is a complement to the foods I eat (preferably vegan desserts) and is something I enjoy collecting and curating.

I love to swap, or even just send people samples, so if there’s anything in my cupboard you’d like to try, just send me a message!
