drank Paris by Harney & Sons

my pound arrived! my pound arrived!!!

due to hostile situations with certain controlling family members, i am forced to keep half my tea collection in my bedroom. i don’t see why it can’t just breathe in the dining room and proceed to grow up the wall, but some people, as i said, are controlling.

so upstairs this went, and since i didn’t yet want to put it in (or on top) of the storage bin, i put it on my bed. on the pillow. Omg Paris-scented pillows. Pillows stuffed with Paris. Tea Pillow ™. is this already a thing?

sleep with this glorious aroma at night, lazily inhale this to the land of your dreams, wake up to it 8 hrs later, then take your pillow-sized sachet & empty some of its contents into a complimentary Yixing and voilà!

i can’t see how this wouldn’t be a great idea for luxury accommodations at 5 star hotels. Peninsula & Mandarin Oriental, you’re welcome.

Bio

love tea in every form- from bagged to loose leaf..commercial to niche. i am intrigued by it all & want to learn as much as i can through my 5 senses (tho with tea i’ll presumably be using 3)..am a very sensorial person. love music, perfume, poetry, graphic design, India, Malaysia, Moorish architecture, oh….and tea!

apparently i’m really out of the loop here since i appear to be among the only ones who have not yet tried Golden Moon, Butiki, 52teas, Mandala, Teavivre or Della Terra. i mean REALLY. i need to start lifting this rock up over my head y’all. from the looks of things, i’ve been reenacting Groundhog’s Day every hour on the hour with my uniformed choices. i seek to be anointed!

also, don’t take my numbers too literally; they can’t possibly speak to the actual quality of the tea, much less to the constancy of my own perceptions! what i may feel to be an 88 one day, could very well be a 91 the next, or even 100, depending on my taste buds, blood sugar levels, neuronal firings or planetary alignment ;)
