Celebrating the birth of Sherlock Holmes with this tea at the moment. It has turned into one of my go to teas and I will not go without it in the house. :)
I love the smoke flavor and smell. But I still love that the Darjeeling and Keemun balance out the smoke of the Lapsang into a really enjoyable cup. You can read a little of my “sort of” birthday tale here: http://thepurrfectcup.com/2013/01/06/taking-tea-with-11-sort-of/
I am a tea lover, a wife, mom of one, and servant to three cats (all rescues). I love to read and write. I’m also a BIG fan of the following shows: BBC Sherlock, Doctor Who, Law and Order, Supernatural, Bones, and more – bless Netflix.
I started drinking and enjoying tea when I was 7 (sure it was bagged Lipton, but it got me started) with my grandmother. As I said it was Lipton with milk and sugar (and peanut butter and jelly on toast) and my love just grew from there. I was brought to loose leaf through a trip to Teavana. But my taste has expanded to many different types of tea since then. I review teas at the link provided, check it out!
