Thank you for the sample, Sophie & Laurent :)

My first Nina’s Tea sample and I had a hard time deciding which to try first, but I saw Josie Jade’s review and orange creamsicle sounded way too good to wait. The dry leaf smell smelled like those chocolate orange candies that come out around Christmas. At first I thought I steeped too long because the tea just reminded me of earl grey… a little bitter and just orange. As it cooled, I started to get the cream and I liked it more… maybe a hint of chocolate? I don’t think my taste buds are sensitive enough lol.

I re-steeped it and added rock sugar, let it cool a bit and voila! There we go, orange creamsicle. I can see myself drinking a lot of this…

Hello! I never knew there were so many teas and retailers. There are, of course, too many to buy all at once so I’ve been happily reading the many helpful notes to help me decide.

I like to add milk and sugar to my tea so I think I favor black teas. I like green teas with honey. I don’t think I’ve tried many white teas yet… I look forward to finding a tea that I can call MY FAVORITE and would be the tea I would want to be shipwrecked with to drink until I die – in the meantime, I will just try a whole lot of whatever I can…

Nice to know there are many people interested in tea that I have the chance to make friends with and maybe swap some teas eventually.
