Backlogged from yesterday.
I like this better than it’s Breakfast Blend companion.
It’s not great, but it is drinkable, especially at a light steep.
Never going to be a favorite, but doing alright on my desk.

I got distracted and let this steep too long this morning, but it actually turned out pretty well, all things considered!
Still, next time, I shall watch the timer.

It’s my moms birthday today, and we’re going to have a wonderful day of fun things together!
In her honor I am drinking my first cup of this for the year- my mothers very favorite thing is pumpkin, so this was the only possible blend.
Omnom. It makes me feel like autumn is here.

This tin has been sitting, completely untasted, for a long time. So, into the work bag it goes, where I expect to drink it down over the coming weeks at work.
And I feel that it’s going to be difficult, as my first cup was not very good. It was bitter, heavy, and unpleasant.
I will try a very delicate steep next time, and see if that helps, but I’m not much impressed with it, on first go.

Ten teas. Excuse me while I vibrate with disbelief. I currently own ten teas. Ten teas total.
Eeeeeeek!
I’d say I’m allowed to place an order now, so I will do so soon.
This has steeped up much better today. I still get a little of the dry mouthfeel, but it’s less bitter.
I can’t say that honey is the main flavor I taste. Maybe next time I’ll add a dollop of actual honey to it.

And a sipdown!
I’m glad I brought this with me to work, and actually worked on drinking it down. I’ve enjoyed it!
This smaller cupboard size is still rather amazing to me, and I’m feeling so productive in my sipdowns!
Another tea now needs to be picked for the work desk!

Hmmm. In theory, I should love this. Honey is one of my very favorite flavors, and this blend is by Harney, a brand that I always enjoy.
But I cannot help but feel that this one has rather missed the mark. The honey is sort of artificial tasting, and the brew leaves a dry feeling in my mouth.
I shall play around with this, as I’ve got a bit of it. I hope I can make it work!

And a sipdown!
I may very well get this again, it was a really nice breakfast blend. Strong, with solid flavors, but it never felt like you were drinking something too bitter.
Farewell, Shagadelic!

I was really dragging yesterday, and wanted something solid to drink. Bingo!
This is a really nice breakfast blend- strong without being overwhelming, and that is just the ticket when I am feeling that worn out.
I’ve been fighting a bit of a cold, and had some trouble getting to sleep lately, a bad combination. So, nice tea to drink is absolutely essential.
I’m almost done with this! I’m absurdly pleased about that.

I brought a pouch of this to sit on my work desk, and so far it is proving to be a very pleasant tea. The mint is subtle and creamy, which works nicely with the oolong, and I’ve enjoyed a few cups of it now.
