Vanilla Sky from Steep City Teas
25

So…i drank this yesterday before my mouth decided it wanted to eat me from the inside out. This was one of the teas i’d really been looking forward to. I suppose i should have paid attention to the fact that Vanilla Sky might as well be monk’s blend. But i didn’t. So i was disappointed. So much so that i logged the tea and didn’t write anything until today. sigh I have 2 other teas to try from Steep City but i’m much less excited about it now. For all i know, i wasn’t paying attention to those teas either and they’ll have something icky i don’t like or be essentially other teas i’ve had before.

Sooo looks like other people get some tea. that makes me sad.

especially since i can’t have any tea today because i need to figure out what’s going on with my mouth/face….and i’m still waiting for the dorcot to get back to me on my high white blood cell count…and i didn’t sleep enough last night because of testing.

sigh I wish it was tomorrow.

Hey Sil, Sorry that you didn’t enjoy the tea. 28 seems like a real buster…

David – Hope so as well. I think it was mostly that although you’ve renamed it “vanilla sky” it’s monk’s blend. Shame on me for not realizing it, but i somehow missed the grenadine. However, had it been “monk’s blend” i would have known right off the bat not to get it.

Hey Sil, no intention on our behalf to ‘mislead’ or ‘rename’, we just love grenadine… in any case… sorry for that.

David – no worries. No harm, no foul Just 2 oz of tea to get rid of lol (well swap hopefully) :) On that note, love the packaging :)

Bio

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling and am currently working on trying to get my other half to as many place in the world as possible.
