Yesterday I only had two cups of tea, down from my usual four. I am way too busy and stressed! I suppose I should forewarn you all that in about a week and a half I will be gone for two months. Not like normal when I’m traveling and don’t post a lot but occasionally pop up and do a post, but really absent because I will be in Madagascar doing fieldwork! I will certainly miss my tea, and I am still trying to decided what tea bags/sachets to schlepp over there for the mornings (because Malagasy tea is not very good!). Two months is a long time.
I am having this tea this morning because it was calling to me. This tea is stupidly good, and by stupidly I mean that I feel stupid for not buying more when I was in Beijing. So sweet, so honeyed, so caramelly. Almost buttery, which ties into the caramel I guess. Love love love this one.

What an exciting opportunity for you! Hope you can see some good birds-in addition to the myriad other interesting things you will encounter.
Tea-wise-Do they have Tanzanian or Kenyan tea?
I have been looking at one from Dragon Tea House on ebay that looks similar to this…if you go over to ebay, do a search for Supreme Tanyang Gongfu.
Scott – Yes, it’s a great time… I’ve been twice before. The tea actually comes from Madagascar, but I remember from two years ago that it was extremely weak. I am interested to try it again, though, now that I’m so into tea!
Jen – I will definitely have to look into that one!
a) This sounds like a beautiful tea and b) doing fieldwork in Madagascar? That will be a wonderful experience. Just hope you won’t be so busy and stressed!
Watch out for the penguins – they’re clever.
I’m so jealous that you get to travel to such awesome places for your job! Have fun!!
Keep an eye out for lemurs! :D We will miss you while you are away.
