JacquelineM drank Tippy Yunnan by Harney & Sons

Big meeting today. I chose my kick a**, take names, poor but happy cousin tea to keep me focused and invigorated. I love it at 175 and steeped for barely a minute, each infusion getting a little longer. It makes this crazy-strong, puts hair on your chest beast of a tea into a little delightful pussycat!

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
