I was really looking forward to this one, but it has let me down. It may not be the tea’s fault.
This was a gift to my daughter, and the box looked somewhat banged up. It was taped shut. When I opened it, there were fourteen sachets instead of fifteen. I checked the expiry date and it said 12-31-19. That was just a few days ago but I am thinking this tea has been sitting on a close out shelf or in a cabinet for a while.
The sachet honestly smelled very promising. I just wanted a decent cup of black tea to go with some shortbread while I write a letter. I supposed it did the job, but it is the most amazingly forgettable tea ever.
The sachet was pretty big so I used a generous mug. I think I may try it again with much less water, and if that doesn’t do it, farewell to thee thou disappointing tea!
The shortbread was pretty good, though!
I heard some people from Bragg had shipped out. Hoping your better half wasn’t one of them. Looks to be a nasty mission they are embarking on.
Thanks, mrmopar! He CAN be shipped out, but is not likely to ever be shipped out.
Some of my students have been a bit sad this week as some of their dads are going. I appreciate everyone who keeps them in their prayers.
I remember my days there well. Usually one of the first to go always from there. Prayers after the new developments definitely.
“The most amazingly forgettable tea ever.” OUCH
