Chocolate Monkey from Art of Tea
80

Backlogging from last night.

The more I drink this tea the more it slides down the scale in favor of the Vanilla Berry Truffle. I am sorry Chocolate Monkey, but as I drink you more the weird schizophrenia you have with what you actually taste like seems to get worse rather than better, and when it does stabilize it is NOT toward the chocolate banana flavor that you, in fact, purport to have. You are tasty! But you are not tasty in the way you say you are, and I just can’t ignore that.

@ Rabs – That’s awesome…I always like the name Neon Armadillo – I think there is actually a Bar called that but I think a Band Name would ROCK too! :P

Bio

I’m a Pole who grew up in Texas, is currently a graduate student in California studying Japan. How’s THAT for random?

Being Polish, my family has always drunk a lot of tea, and I am no different. I may drink more tea than water. On the other hand, I can’t say that I’m very particular about it; I’m generally pretty careless with steeping times and water temperature and I don’t even have a proper teapot (mostly because the lid broke during the move to California ;_;).

I always drink my tea unsweetened and I only add milk in the case of the most egregiously chai-ish of chais. (not really a big fan of milk in general)

Given that so many of my entries seem to be about my morning tea, I felt I should add something here about me and mornings: I fail at mornings. I fail at them a LOT. Therefore I often also fail at proper tea making in the mornings.
