Bio
I’m so excited to have found this community! I’m a self-employed Harpist (acoustic & electric – Originals, Classical, Rock, Jazz, etc) & Singer/Songwriter. My days & nights revolve around teaching at home, playing gigs, gardening,& fixing awesome food to eat. My schedule is different everyday, but I just go with the flow, & I sip a lot of tea!
My love of Tea began with Herbals back in the 70’s. One of my favorites was a licorice blend from House of Hezekiah, an old tea shop in Kansas City. There was also a tea with mint, rose petals, chamomile, etc called Nuclear Casual Tea.
In the 80’s I gave up caffeine, chocolate, alcohol, (& a few illicit substances…), and brewed medicinal blends & tinctures to support 4 pregnancies (all children born at home). In the 90’s my love affair with green teas began when I discovered ‘The Republic of Tea’. Their beautiful teas & packaging inspired my original song, “TeaMind”, from my CD “Zen Breakfast”. If you’d like to hear the song for free, drop by my website.
In general, I drink my teas straight, but occasionally I add a pinch of Stevia & maybe some coconut or almond milk (I’m allergic to dairy, gluten, & various other things & avoid most sweets.)
I’ve explored a variety of teas:
Whites tend to be a little bland…sorry
Oolongs – wonderfully sensual
Roobios – I’m not a fan in general
Puehr – a fairly new direction for me
I’m not a huge fan of flavored teas, but I do make exceptions, & I’ll try just about anything once.
And Black Tea, Oh how I love thee!!
I am on a quest for the most wonderful breakfast cup! I will find you, my Love!

I really want to try this one! I can’t wait until it’s on sale!
It’s up now unless you meant on sale as in discounted price :)
I didn’t see that on the Butiki site and I was there today…. hmmmm.
Fuzzy_Peachkin-I put it up last night. I was going to announce it on Facebook later today. It’s under the black tea section. If you don’t see it, you may need to hit the refresh button on your browser.
K, I’m gonna have another cup and write a review.
OMG – this sounds awesome! Added to my shopping list…
Must place order when I get home!! :-)
Fuzzy_Peachkin-If you are at all into Darjeelings, you might want to wait until tomorrow when we will have 3 new Darjeelings up, 2 of which were harvested this month. The Giddapahar is exceptionally outstanding! :)
I’m not sure if I’m into darjeelings just yet: Still so many things to try!
