I had this whole extravagant plan of making mashed potatoes and chicken roulade with provolone and spinach and a whole lot of other things I could find in the kitchen, but my roommate got mad because she knew I had my bigger midterm tomorrow morning. I’ve been reduced to sitting in my usual corner of the kitchen table drinking tea and having ramen for dinner tonight because I just really need to study for this midterm.

The Elrond blend is one of my favourites! This was probably the one out of all the Hobbit Blends that I was really nervous for. Rooibos teas in general (to me) smell like medicine and I always am hesitant to try it. Elrond does have that medicine-y aroma dry, but when you drink it it tastes like yummy sweet candy. It tastes like the tea was grown in a meadow full of sunshine and rainbows and prancing unicorns pooping lollipops. Yeah I just really like this tea okay.

Such a shame that all the Hobbit blends got taken down though. I’m the only one who has reviewed this tea so I have no idea if anyone has tried it yet! If you follow me and would like to try this tea (or any other of the Hobbit blends), shoot me a message and let’s hope I’ve got plenty to go around :)
((except for Bilbo. Bilbo is mine and I only have enough for two cups oops. But I’m all for letting everyone try all my other Hobbit teas! Even if it’s not on my swap list!))

Tea rating guide:
100-95: Best thing to ever touch my mouth and I want more. Restocking is a must
94-80: Love this tea. Restock if I can
79-70: Decent tea. Neither love nor hate.
69-60: I won’t be upset when it runs out. I’ll drink it but won’t restock.
59-30: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea and I’ll finish the cup.
29-10: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea. It may or may not have gone down the sink…
9-below: Let’s not even hide it. This definitely went down the drain.

I love tea.
I drink it.
I log it.
I have a good time.
Lather, rinse, repeat.

I first discovered my love for tea with jasmine teas because that’s all my mother would buy, so for the longest time, I thought that all teas were jasmine! And then in 4th grade, I watched the tea episode of Good Eats and that’s when the education started! I’d like to blame Alton Brown for starting this obsession because now I only like loose leaf tea.
It wasn’t until my second year of college that I actually expanded my tea taste buds. Special shout out to Cara McGee, Tea Queen for her Adagio Fandom blends. Because of Cara, I actually started drinking blacks, herbals and whites and pretty much everything else in between. I still have a special love for my jasmine though :)
I (try to) drink tea daily. Usually just straight up, no sugar or milk. This little obsession started young and just… kept going, I guess.

also I apologize in advance for lazy tasting notes and horrible grammar in everything I write. I was an avid fandom blogger on tumblr and tumblr talk can get in the way of everything kthxbai
