Adham drank Tie Guan Yin Competition Grade "Monkey Picked" Oolong by Chicago Tea Garden

It’s been a stressful and busy day, but it’s almost never too crazy for tea – especially one as good as this. The subtle flavors which emerge in this one continue to amaze me. Today I had just a very light note of anise which I had not picked up on before. This tea is most definitely a journey!

So excited… I bought a sample of this but haven’t had the chance to try it yet. Can’t wait now.

Grandma introduced me to tea as a kid (lipton with milk and sugar; a bit poured into the saucer to cool it down and then sipped from there), and I’ve never looked back. Still have a slight preference for teas that go well with milk (or even better, cream) and sugar, but since Grandma’s day I’ve branched out to appreciate green and white teas, rooibos and pu erh. Absolutely love Mariage Freres!
