Jillian drank China Breakfast by Rishi Tea

Another tea I got from Ricky. This looks a fair bit like Adagio’s Yunnan Jig with twisted, wiry leaves and some gold tips. It lacks the smokiness and the cocoa notes of the Adgio’s tea however. It has a bit of a toasty quality to it, but I found it to be rather bitter, at least initially. I kept drinking it and realize about half-way through the cup that “Hey this isn’t that bad”. I’ll have to try this tea with some milk and honey to see if that helps things.

This one tends to get bitter really easily…but it’s worth tinkering around with.
I do like it with milk and sweetener. You’ll have to try it! :)

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!)
