I think of this as a tea that I’ll drink if I want something with nocaf, if it’s around. But forever going forward I will think of it as THE TEA THAT HOOKED MY CHILD ON TEA! Over the weekend he saw me drinking tea as always, and asked for a sip. I let him have the tiniest amount and he said he really liked it. So I asked if he wanted his own cup and made this instead. With half a teaspoon of sugar (so much less than comes in juice or the almond milk he normally drinks), he kept saying “I LOVE tea!” and asking for more as soon as it was out. So now, there are two tea drinkers in my house. Me and my three year old. :)
This is You :-D

Bio
I’ve been into tea, at some level, since college with a first tin of loose tea brought back by my parents from Oxford. My love of tea increased with a visit to Boston and a chance cup at Tealuxe. Since then I’ve only gotten more interested in tea and have developed more of an appreciation for it.

100: a perfect cuppa. these are the teas I’ll keep in my cupboard and tend to be one per type of tea.
90-99: will definitely get more of this tea
80-89: likely to get more and perhaps it will become a favorite with time
70-79: very good, depending on my mood or the season
60-69: wouldn’t actively try to get this tea, but also wouldn’t avoid it in a tea shop or restaurant
50-59: run-of-the-mill tea for me
40-49: decent, would hit the spot in some moods, but probably wouldn’t purchase it for my cupboard
30-39: okay, will try again, maybe
20-29: meh. I’d try this tea again if no other were available
10-19: drinkable, but a forced cup
0-9: didn’t even finish the cup
