Geek Steep S1E17 – Doctor Who
This was a great episode, for me personally, because it let me sort of refall in love with a fandom of my past that in many ways I had kind of forgotten. I mean, you never really forget Doctor Who – it’s one of those shows that makes an intense impression on you. However, at some point I just stopped watching regularly.
However, as I watched the 50th Anniversary Special and sipped my Doctor Who themed cup of tea this sense of comfort and familiarity came back to me and quite quickly I felt myself falling back in stride with the series and wanting to rewatch old, favourite episodes. In fact, since we recorded this episode I’ve watched about three of my old favourites!
It’s really no surprise I was drawn to this tea – the combination of lime and thyme sounds great in its own right, but the playful pun and reference to my favourite Doctor… Like, I would have been crazy to not pick this up, right!? It’s a nice tea – I don’t think I mentioned the flavour at all on the episode but it’s more of a soothing herbal flavour with strong notes of lemongrass and thyme than anything else. I wish there was more of an acidic and bright lime note, but I like that approachable herbaceous taste a lot too.
A good sipping tea, for sure!
