Sipdown!

This was slightly overleafed because of the old dilemma – too little left for a decent cuppa but too much in the tin for the amount of tea I had planned to make. So slightly overleafed it is. I have discovered that many of Fortnum’s blends actually benefit from a little overleafing, especially their black tea with apple and black tea with lemon.

So overleafed this one is a huge hit of lavender. I like lavender so that was offputting for me. Very much enjoyed. This makes twenty advent sipdowns and four to go!

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
