So excited to finally get to try this.
First steep is light and sweet, honey, nectar, bread, and caramel, silky smooth mouth feel.
The second steep starts to get a bit darker. Honey, bread, caramel, but now there’s also raisins and a touch of cocoa hiding at the edges. I accidentally forgot this one and left it steeping for 10 minutes with no bitterness or astringency.
Wow honey. The third steep is like pure honey and nectar. I’m at my dad’s and using his microwave to heat the water so it’s probably only ~185F. But it’s still delicious.

One of things I’m most looking forward to when I receive the box is getting a change to try Whispering Pines teas.
KiwiDelight, is there something from them you’re really looking for? I am sending a package out to you already. I could include some of those that I have….
Oh no Cameron and Cheri, you guys don’t have to do that. I’m more than ok with what’ll be in the box ^^;
Kiwi, well I assume we’re supposed to replace the tea we drink anyway, so I might as well add something that you’ll like to try. :D
That would be great! :D Whispering Pines is on my “must buy from” list and my hiatus is such a painnnnnnnn
Kiwi-The only WP in the box is this one. But I think between Cheri Cameron and I we should be able to contribute a nice selection for you (:
Cheri, I wouldn’t mind trying Cocoa Amore, but it’s a pretty expensive tea so I understand if you don’t want to spare it. :P
Ooooh now I’m excited! :D So many good teas in here that I want to try.
It’s like Christmas! I think I wept while pulling the teas out.
Can’t wait… Don’t steal all the goods! :P

Kiwi, I’ll be sure to add some from my stash too. I have several from them. :)

I’m next, so if there’s something you like to see in the box that’s in my cupboard, let me know!

I’ll slip a little bit in. One ounce of this one doesn’t seem to go as far as I wish it did…..
Don’t worry about it then! My ounce of Golden Orchid is the same way… Where did it go? XD
If you guys have everything WP has that would be perfect.
Joking aside, y’all are great :P <3
