drank Tangerine by Basilur
2252 tasting notes

Stillness. I had forgotten what it was like. :) But I’ve been blessed with a sunny fall Sunday morning with no commitments—had to travel 600 miles for that to happen! Wind outside the window has picked up a little and is blowing bright yellow leaves around like a ticker tape parade just for my benefit.

Next to me is what is now an empty cup, previously filled with this surprisingly excellent tea—another of our Tuesday Morning outlet surprises. Husband grabbed it because he loves all things tangerine and expected tart black tea. He didn’t get it. Tangerine, definitely, but it’s softened with vanilla so that the end result is more like a scone with citrus zest. My only regret is that I didn’t bring more.

You found Basilur at Tuesday Morning? I have GOT to start going! Glad you had a lovely fall morning. I told hubby to play hooky from church today because he looked like he needed it. I think it did him good.

Yes—several varieties of Basilur, and some Loyd Tea (brand I was not familiar with) that I am crazy over: Manuka Honey Cranberry Ginger. Of course, it all may be gone next time I’m in…

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
