JacquelineM drank Queen Catherine by Harney & Sons

I’m having the most delicious savory breakfast! Queen Catherine, some Gouda cheese, and some multigrain crackers. The slight smoke in QC is mixing with the Gouda in such an amazing way! This would also make a great afternoon snack for those of you who might shy away from semi-pungent cheeses in the morning ;)

When you have some, try it with a slightly smoky tea! Yowsa – I’m still thinking about how good that was!

I find that most teatimes are improved by the addition of cheese, no matter what kind of tea I am drinking but especially the heartier ones, as you say! I LOVE cheese! The daughters love it because they say when they cheese with their tea it makes the tea taste even sweeter. I concur!

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
