JacquelineM drank Vanilla Assam by Custom

Oh my goodness! It’s actually under 80 degrees today! Also, when I went grocery shopping, there was Halloween candy in the store. This means Fall is going to come soon, right?!

In tribute to the signs of my favorite season’s approach, I wore my hair down today :) and I am having some Vanilla Assam. I love Vanilla and Assam all year around, but I find it best when there is a chill in the air. The heavysweetsmoky is really hitting the spot today, and making me very excited and happy!

Extended forecast actually has upper 80’s/low 60’s in it for the first time in two months … Mallowcreme pumpkins in the candy dish to celebrate. I have missed ENJOYING my hot tea!

Bio

I love to cook, bake, read, paint, knit, do needlework, and garden. I need my coffee, but I LOVE my tea. I work at an Art School, and I am currently taking classes in order to become certified to teach.

I enjoy writing tasting notes, but have decided not to numerically rate teas as of 9/14/10. For an explanation, see my looooong tasting note about Mountain Malt from the Simple Leaf.

My favorites:
Chinese black teas
A good “milk and sugar” English style black
Earl Grey (classic, and in all variations!)
Vanilla teas (classic, and in all variations!)
Jasmine, Rose, Violet and other froofy, flowery teas!
An Occasional Oolong
Flavored Rooibos
Herbal Tisanes
