Tea Is A Cup Of Life

My faithful companion, 

Whom I have had five years,

Whom has become like tea-stained glass,

Whom has gone through countless fulters,

Welcome to your new home.

I made the mistake of not travelling with my IngenuiTEA to do a “temporary” assignment.  I didn’t realize how often I didn’t brew tea or didn’t brew loose leaf tea, having to struggle with those pesky tea balls all the time.  And they don’t let the tea expand or rinse properly.

So glad to have my trusty friend back. :)

Drinking this “Buckingham Garden” blend right now from Fluer di lis Teas . It’s a darjeeling/ceylon blend with bergamot, those pretty blue corn flowers.  But the darjeeling leaves are really, really fleshy - much bigger than anything you would normally find, so that is peculiar.  Decently standard blend of teas, but the flavours aren’t really complimented or enhancing the base. Really prefer a more complex blend, with Assam for this pallet. This tea, if I recall was like $4/oz, which is decently expensive, especially when skeptical leaves are involved. xD

Back!

Let me know how many of you are still around!

Lots of tea reviews pending. :D
