Trying to give this another go, hopefully without the weird chalky taste this time.

The chalky taste has definitely receded but, while tasty enough, this tea just doesn’t do much for me. Now, I’ve only been to Paris once in my life and most of that time I was afflicted with jetlag induced nausea, so I can’t say it was all that fun. I HAVE, however, seen the movie French Kiss a bunch of times and I enjoyed THAT although now that I think about it neither Meg Ryan nor Kevin Kline exhibited any sign of jetlag whatsoever. The bastards. In any case, nothing about this tea really screams Paris to me, but I have no idea what would so let’s set that issue aside.

I guess all I can really say is that this tea just doesn’t “click” with me. It happens!

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.
