We are having some work done today on our ceiling (in short, I set my foot through it last month), so my typical spot for tea is occupied. I’ve been spending my morning in the “Retro Room” in the basement, watching VHS, reading, and playing through Lagoon on the SNES. I’ve decided to take pause and catch up on my tea sip downs, reviews, and catch up reading everyone’s recent logs. :)
This is the current tea I’m topping off from one of the club months. While my feelings on these clubs seem to be that the teas are random and lack any direction as to why they were selected, there are some bits of tea that fall into the mix that are a pleasant experience. This isn’t the absolute best sheng I’ve experienced, however, there are subtle notes of vanilla, sticky rice/rice cakes, and coconut.
Ha, I also have a room in my house that I call the “Retro Room” (spare bedroom in a condo where I live alone, so it has an old CRT TV hooked up to a VCR and SNES, a bookcase of all my geeky anime/manga stuff, and a giant net of anime/video game plushies on the wall).
