Wow. Oh boy, have my tastes ever changed in the year that I have been drinking loose leaf tea!
This is still pretty good. I still like it. I haven’t had it in FOREVER but decided to make it tonight to go with chicken pot pie soup that hubby and I were having at the tea table all alone, and he only likes Ceylon tea. Since it was late I thought I should make decaf, and to go with our food I thought this one would be best.
Since I know I like my tea stronger now that I used to like it, I added five teaspoons of leaves to my 22 ounce Beehouse teapot. Even at that this tea was weak to me, but not awful horrible weak like the Decaf Assam! With sugar and paired with food, it was serviceable to me and I enjoyed having a nice cuppa and some hot soup after our long day out driving in the rolling pastures of the Piedmont of NC looking at trees! But my hubby LOVED it and remarked several times on how good the tea was. And that is what mattered tonight!
For the sake of spousal tea harmony, I have cheerfully brewed a number of teas incorrectly over the years :)
