Yesterday was a hit-the-ground-running Saturday; despite my feeling like I was just running on a hamster wheel, I do have a tidier living room and a finished writing project to show for it. But before I started scrambling, I sat down and savored a good cuppa and this was in it.

My first taste and first review emphasized the baked bread notes, which I see listed in the flavor thesaurus that goes with this tea, but with a little more leaf and a little more time to let it cool, I got a sweet molasses vibe as well. Delicious, and a hint that autumn is waiting in the wings. (A pleasant thought on a day with an expected heat index in the low boil range.)

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.
