Jillian drank Marco Polo by Mariage Frères

Thank you Takgoti for getting me more of this tea. I’m going to be a sad puppy when it does eventually run out. :D

I’m drinking it with some skim milk this time around and it does nicely emphasize the cream flavours in the tea aswell as take off some of the astringency of the tea base without overwhelming it. I’m a bit disappointed that the strawberry flavour wasn’t similarly emphasized, but then again, I hate those over-strong, fake-tasting flavours tea companies sometimes use.

Hahaha, I’m glad that I at least doubled you up on a tea you enjoy! I must remember to try this with milk…

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!)
