Jillian drank Eight at the Fort by Harney & Sons

Well that’s the end of this sample packet unfortunately. This is another one I’m adding to my get-again list; I’m completely in love with the smoothness and the complexity of this tea. It’s rare to find a blend of tea types that works so well. I especially love all the cute little, perfect, bright-green buds that float to the surface after the tea has been steeping for a little while.

I;ve been curious about this one for a while…I guess I should get around to ordering some!

It’s two dollars for the sampler, which is enough for 2-3 cups. I think a tin is worth it, but you might want to try the sampler before you dive.

I love this tea too. Will have to re-order soon. It has a good kick as well.

I live in Denver and love the local library’s redeco for the Summit of Eight in 1997. Will have to try this tea, too, to make the experience complete :)

@Tamara: This is an excellent tea and quite unique aswell, so I’d deifnitely recommend trying it. Harney & Sons has sample packets of all their teas for around $2 each.

Bio

I’m a university student in her mid-twenties who’s currently working her way toward a Bachelor of Natural Resource Science degree. I love both science and science-fiction and I’m a history nut on top of that. Maybe I should just call myself a nerd and leave it there. ;)

I’ve been drinking tea since I was young but it’s only in the past couple years that I’ve become interested in the good-quality stuff.

I’m also a self-proclaimed Grammar-Nazi, and improper capitalization and spelling invariably makes me twitch (yes, I mean you!)
