I’ve been looking forward to this one since I last had it, and it didn’t disappoint. Warm tobacco and leather, with a faint but very rich sweet tone that reminds me of dark dried fruits, like raisins or figs. I didn’t notice the chocolate so much this time around, but it could have been hiding in the fruit. All in all, a very smooth and tasty cup that made me want a cigarette.
I love tasting things. Slowly, I’m getting better at it.
I am a coffee convert; the 5+ cups of strong coffee I used to drink every day has trickled down to 1-2 cups a week, if a pot’s already brewed and I’m feeling lazy. Otherwise, tea all the way!
It’s been a few months now, which is enough for me to know that everyone likes different things about their cup. Personally I like my teas the way I like my men—strong and naked, with no artificial flavors or preservatives. Also dry, and in a tin. Hah!
Life is interesting and occasionally irritating. Because of this, I am sometimes laser-eyed, but a nice cup of tea usually helps.
