It’s been a long time since I’ve had this tea, mainly because I’ve been on a bit if a black tea kick. This was sent as a sample in one of my last Verdant orders. I’m always thankful to get to try the newest harvests! I know I waited a couple months to actually open it, but it smells and tastes very fresh. The first steep is so pale I was wondering if I somehow hadn’t heated the water enough, but the taste is there, and it is lovely! So nice to have this in my stash again. Also, I’m using my new little glass steeper from Verdant and I LOVE it! I’m using it for everything.
1 tsp per 8 oz.

I love tea. I first tasted loose leaf when my grandpa brought some back from Russia and I remember just savoring it. Not sure what kind it was; all I remember is that it was loose leaf and it was good. =)

I really enjoy oolong, jasmine tea, and white tea. I especially love those black teas with chocolate notes! Also, chai is a constant favorite. I enjoy green tea, but need to be in the mood for it to actually want it.

As far as tisanes go, I enjoy chamomile and occasionally a mint. I am interested to try rooibus and honey bush. I do prefer teas without artificial flavoring but I’m willing to try most things.

I know next to nothing about puerh, but I like what I have tried so far.

I am consistently amazed at the flavors contained in one leaf. I am on a quest to discover all of them! Slowly, though. Good tea is expensive. :P

Other things I enjoy: Books. My family. Truth. Campfires. Animal Rescue. Gardening. Sushi. Mountain biking. Documentaries. Trees. Music. Culture. Sour cream raisin pie. Not necessarily in that order. :P
