Sipdown!!
Don’t you hate when you are about to click on a tea and the drop down list just changes? It took me like three tries to finally get to this page but I did it so yay!
Anyways, this is a tasty, tasty white. Thank you Roswell Strange for sharing. It really comes off as though I am feasting on some delicious berries. It is sweet, but with just the right amount of berry tartness. The white base is the perfect match to highlight the mulberries and the flowers add almost a butterscotch note to the whole cup. I am sad all the leaf was gone with just one (very large) cup. You shall be missed Mulberry White, until we meet again.

Mmm… Now I wanna make this. I’m already prepping some Boatsman, though :(
I was going to make boatsman but by the time I got to prepping the water had cooled so I took advantage and went for the white tea instead.
waaaaaaaant my teas!
Haha – I have the advantage! Though, I want mine too :( I need more Pret a Portea for at night. I’ve also figured out that one travels well, too… I think I’ve asked you this before, but which did you get Sil?
uh….assam beast of the east, tropical dream and orange path + samples of a couple others :)
I love the name of Assam Beast of the East. Not sure why, but it’s fun to say – just like “Boatsman”.
no tea tonight sigh maybe tomorrow..which will end up being Wednesday since it’ll likely get stuck in mail jail…. bah!
This was the one I had to try first! I’m so happy I heard about it before I finalized my cart, or I would have had to create a second follow quickly after.
I still might need to. I’m so impressed so far.
And I’m trying Beast of the East tomorrow – I liked the name as well.
Awww. Poor Sil.
And everyone else still waiting.
Save a bit for meeeeeeee cavo!
Did you like it!? I think it’s fabulous! Right now, I’m most impatient about Sweet Helen, I think… And getting more Tea of Kings/Pret a Portea, but I still have a few cups left of each.
I have resisted an order so that I could try the teas that I was sent. Both were really tasty so it is oh so tempting but I am trying very hard to be good and not order more. Perhaps I should set a number and if I reach it, I can order more tea.
VariaTEA…don’t tell anyone that number or they’ll send you teas when you’re ALLLMOST there just to drive you bonkers with love :)
By the next time we swap, I should have received my RiverTea order, so maybe I can throw somethings in for you if they sound interesting. I’d love to hear your thoughts on The Tea of Kings.
Haha. Is that what they do to you, Sil? :P
And Roswell Strange, you know me so well…that was one I was looking at buying when I built my cart. I just realized I have built a lot of carts lately. haha. I guess I do have some self-control.
(May or may not be building another cart right now) I really like it. Best lychee black I’ve ever had, personally. I’d have sent you some in the last swap, but I’m down to about 2 cups – and I was being greedy.
VariaTEA – I always threaten to do it to Sil. It’s fun to make her squirm.
And Sil – done! (Well, noted at least. Lemme know if you want others, although I probably won’t see you at the tea fest)
