I’ll admit it – I’m starting to fall in love with this tea. It’s just such a unique blend and it’s a wonderfully-balanced combination of savory maltiness and fresh grassiness. It has a surprisingly good caffeine kick to it aswell.

The resteep (@ 4:45) was good too, though leaning a bit more towards the grassy-flavoured side of things.

I ordered this way back in early April and the small tin is on BACKORDER!!!! I can’t wait to try this, though.

It’s on my ‘To Buy’ list too, although it may be awhile before I have enough money to justify making an order to Samovar. Too many teas…and so little time! ;)

I totally agree with that sentiment – too many teas, so little time! Should be/probably IS the motto of steepsterites everywhere! But, BACKORDER (the small tin, I don’t know about any other size)! Life is not fair, sometimes.

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!)
