I have a feeling you really enjoy this tea :)

You know, I have ordered from TeaSpring a few times, but somehow have never ordered this tea. But seeing as it has you squeeling, I’m thinking that I really HAVE to order this tea in my next order.

I picture you and the TYTJ running towards each other from opposite ends of a field, arms outstretched, music playing in the background. Ah, love!

I like teaspring…Although I haven’t tried this one, they have some great teas. :))

So adding this to my shopping list – I can’t believe their shipping is so cheap!

DJBooth, how did you guess? :p

Ssajami, if you try it, I hope you like it. It’s my favourite. :)

Auggy, Yes, in slow motion. And we would be wearing white loosefitting 80-ish clothes. :p

ScottTeaMan, I definitely recommend this one. It’s my favourite in the whole world. They do have another as well, which is a higher leaf grade and significantly more costly, but I found this was actually my preferred one of the two.

Mrawlins2, ooooh, I do hope you will enjoy it! Yeah, their shipping is nearly too good to be true, but it evens out because many of their things are rather costly.

Profile

Bio

Angrboda felt her bio needed to be re-written, but she failed to consider what she wanted it to say instead.

Um…

Okay. Ang prefers black teas and the darker sorts of oolongs. She has to be in the mood for green and white and she enjoys, but knows little to nothing about, pu-erh.

Her preferences with black teas are the Chinese ones, particularly from Fujian, but also Keemun and just about anything smoky. She occasionally enjoys Yunnans but they’re not favourites.

She is sceptical about Indian blacks as she generally finds them too astringent and too easy to get wrong. She doesn’t really care for Darjeelings at all.

She likes flavoured teas as well, particularly fruit flavoured ones, but also has an obsession with finding the Perfect Vanilla Flavoured Black.

However, she thinks Earl Grey is generally kind of boring. Cinnamon and ginger are also not really a hit, and she’s not very fond of chais. Evil hibiscus is evil. Even in small amounts, and yes, Ang can usually detect hibiscus, mostly by way of the metallic flavour of blood it has.

Ang is not super impressed with rooibos or honeybush. She doesn’t care for either, really, but when they are flavoured, there have been known to be surprising exceptions to this rule.

Ang has a number of teas that she regards her Standard Panel and will always try to have on hand.
-Lapsang Souchong, any brand really, but preferably AC Perchs.
-Blackberry flavoured black or similar, any brand.
-Late Summer Blend, AC Perchs
-Raspberry Oolong, AC Perchs OR Red Fruits Oolong, Le Palais des Thes
-Caramel, Kusmi OR Toffee, Le Palais des Thes
-Something orange flavoured, black or pu-erh, any brand.
-Tan Yang Te Ji, Teaspring OR Bai Lin Gongfu, Teavivre
-A good Keemun, any brand.
-The Perfect Vanilla Black if and when she ever finds it…

Angrboda is almost always open to swapping. Just ask her.
