Black Currant Bai Mu Dan from 52teas
80

I’m not sold on this Logan series on Masterpiece but I am on Black Currant Tea! This was part of my epic SweeTea from JacquelineM and the first black currant tea I’ve ever had. The dry leaf has such a great refreshing smell. Steeped it stays fruity with just a hint of walnuty Bai Mu Dan mixed into the bushel of berries shoved into this tea. Sorting through the leaves, there aren’t many tips but it’s not crushed fannings either, so this is a good base for flavors in my opinion. The flavor and scent make this one of the most energizing white teas I’ve had.
This is really fun. I can think of too many things it would accompany perfectly. Irish soda bread. Mrs Marple. Raisin bran. Doctor Who. Definately picking this up if I ever can.

Yeah, I think Any Human Heart is a bit on the schmaltzy side, but I love Matthew Macfadyen. I think he’s a great actor and saves the parts he’s in! Otherwise – meh. We didn’t even watch the last one, cuz I figured it would be uberschmaltzy since the end of Logan’s life was drawing near! We watched the polar opposite – the last episode of Spartacus, Gods of the Arena. Oh dear.

I didn’t watch it in full. My mother watched it and I caught bits and pieces of it and the first few minutes walking by. Think I developed a few cavities on the way. I retreted to my room with a stack of manga.=/
Shoot! I forgot That was on. They must be runnning it again this week.

I totally agree with Jacqueline about Any Human Heart and Matthew Macfadyen (I think my husband looks like him =) ). I actually thought the last part was the best out of the bunch – old crotchety Logan did some crazy things.
