British Breakfast from The Republic of Tea

After a horrible night’s sleep, I needed something to really wake me up. I figured this might do it. I brewed it for 4mins and added some milk and sugar. It certainly did the job of waking me up so definite plus. On my first sip, I thought the taste was just okay, but after that, I started to (oddly) get hints of cinnamon or some sort of spice. Good stuff.

When I started drinking tea I was quickly cursing myself for all of the coffee “wake-ups” I put myself through. It’s the difference between a gentle caress and being simultaneously shaken and prodded with a pointy stick, you know? So much more comforting. And without the plummeting energy level.

This tea sounds lovely. I’m all about cinnamon-y flavors now that fall is arriving.

I fully get that. Tea gives me a quicker ramp up to wakefulness whereas coffee always slingshotted me into it, complete with crash landing.

Honestly, I’m not sure if the tea is SUPPOSED to taste of cinnamon. But when I mentioned it, hubby agreed so if I am insane, at least the insanity is contagious.

I’ve decided to brave the slowness that is Steepster because I miss seeing all the good teas folks on here discover! Sometimes my notices for PMs and such have been questionable. Email me at your own risk at aug3zimm at gmail dot com.


1 – 10 – Bleck. Didn’t finish the cup.
11 – 25 – Drinkable. But don’t punish me by making me have it again.
26 – 40 – Meh. Most likely will see if the husband likes it iced.
41 – 60 – Okayish. Maybe one day I’ll kill off what I have in my pantry.
61 – 75 – Decent. I might pick some up if I needed tea.
76 – 85 – Nice. I’d probably buy but wouldn’t hunt it down.
86 – 100 – Yum! I will hunt down the vendor to get this tea!

Not that anyone but me particularly cares, but there it is.
