My sister loves this tea. I used to love it — perhaps grad school irreversibly injured my taste buds (I once breathed in the autoclave vapor of tubes that had HCl soaking in them and almost coughed my lungs out/went blind/died), perhaps this tea has changed. It’s seasonal, so you can only find it in the autumn here in the US, so my sister always stocks up. We’ve done this for at least four years or so. The first few years, this was super delicious and wonderful (with milk — not cream). However, I have a suspicion that the blend has changed over the years. I still like it, just not as much. I still use a lot of milk in there, though — even microwaving some milk with the tea bag in there is good.

Bio

Calochortus likes plants and knitting and bacteria. She doesn’t have a very large tea allowance, so expect a lot of grocery store/local/home-grown/bagged teas. She’s grown up with tea, as it is part of (half of) her culture.

Her favorite teas are black and usually fruity or vanilla-y. She likes to put milk in her tea, too, but she’s trying to widen her palette with green teas and rooibos. She finds that tea leaves are great for composting, too.

Location

The fictional state of Washidamont (Eastern WA, Northern ID, and Western MT)
