drank Dawn by The Simple Leaf
96 tasting notes

I cleaned up my apartment today so that the cleaning lady could vacuum, and as a reward I made myself a cup of Dawn. It’s a lot richer than I remember, which is a good thing. I think part of the change can be attributed to the fact that I didn’t use boiling water in the past, and this tea thrives on boiling water. For anyone who hasn’t tried Dawn yet, it is truly amazing. It’s like unsweetened hot cocoa…there’s even this almost powdery/thick mouthfeel, like you’re drinking a rich suspension of chocolate and cocoa and tea. The second steep is wonderful as well. Simple Leaf, you rock. Congratulations, you get my first 100.

ETA: A slightly longer steep (closer to 4 or 4:30) really makes this seem like a decadent, rich cup of unsweetened hot cocoa.

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 45 sec

Yay for the first 100! I don’t have one yet.

Also, I loved where you said you cleaned up for the cleaning lady. Of course, we do that too, and so does everyone else I know who has house cleaners, but it amuses me to think about it. :-)
