what a nice medium bodied roasted Oolong with cereal and bread notes.
I am enjoying it with pancakes and Maple syrup before leaving to go to my niece’s birthday.
Not especially happy to have to take the train again for more than an hour and during the week end but this is a special occasion and I’m glad to celebrate her 17 years the right day.
First, please forgive me for my English and all the grammatical mistakes you’ll find in my posts.
As English isn’t my mother tongue it sometimes makes things more difficult to express cleverly and accurately what I feel.
I was mainly in black flavoured teas, green as well if not bitter.
I’m now drinking much straight teas because my palate is now developed enough to appreciate them .
My favourite brands are : Taiwan tea Crafts, Teavivre, Mariage Frères,Theodor,Butiki Teas,Dammann Frères, Betjeman & Barton.
My ratings are as follow :
100 to 95 : my darlings; always in my cupboard (or very often ! )
94 to 90 : Excellent tea
89 to 80 : very good tea, a pleasure to drink it
79 to 70: not bad even quite nice, why not having it sometimes, but well,it’s not so urgent !
69 to 50 : Meh, deceptive or just not for me – but has some qualities
49 to 30 : I just don’t appreciate it
Under 30 : is this thing supposed to be tea ?!?!?

Your niece has a thoughtful and loving aunt:-) With all the train commuting you do in a week, I understand why this is the last place where you want to be during week ends!
