Finished off this sample last night.
I’m glad I decided to only use half of the packet the first time around because I think I’ve come around a bit more to this tea. Not to the point where I want more, but I definitely find it a pleasant tea to drink. In addition, the Oolong was a bit more oolongy this time around so that was good, although I was still having some cognitive dissonance with the whole combination.
This is You :-D

Bio
I’m a Pole who grew up in Texas, is currently a graduate student in California studying Japan. How’s THAT for random?
Being Polish, my family has always drunk a lot of tea, and I am no different. I may drink more tea than water. On the other hand, I can’t say that I’m very particular about it; I’m generally pretty careless with steeping times and water temperature and I don’t even have a proper teapot (mostly because the lid broke during the move to California ;_;).
I always drink my tea unsweetened and I only add milk in the case of the most egregiously chai-ish of chais. (not really a big fan of milk in general)
Given that so many of my entries seem to be about my morning tea, I felt I should add something here about me and mornings: I fail at mornings. I fail at them a LOT. Therefore I often also fail at proper tea making in the mornings.

I really like the concept of “cognitive dissonance” in regard to tea. I’m gonna have to steal borrow this concept from you! :)
