And I decided, “why not just kill this off today?” and, finding no reason not to, I did.
This was inoffensive and unmemorable. I am not sorry to have drunk it, and not sorry that its gone.
Sipdown!

As inoffensive hot liquids to have on hand at work go, this one is pretty middle of the road!
See, faint praise, damming with.

I might be coming around slightly to green tea. Still not about to replace black tea in my heart, but I’m finding that I like it more now. Helps that I’ve worked out the steep times.

Had a cup of this in the afternoon.
Once again, not bad, not fantastic. Great qualities in a work tea!

In honor of the first day of fall, I decided to order the first of the autumnal teas!
I say the first, as I’ve decided, for both my budget and my sanity, to spread out my tea buying over the next couple of months. In years past I frantically ran around, putting every tea that seemed interesting into my basket all at once, which then stressed me out, when my cupboard numbers swelled to such outrageous proportions.
This year I have ordered my fall classics from Harney (Boston and Capri), and then a set of samples of things I’ve not tried yet, from the Angry Tea Room.
As I continue to sip down, I can order more, as I work on curating my perfect balance.
I want a solid core of beloved teas, and rotating new things to try. This first batch of autumnal ordering is trying to cultivate this.
And it only motivates me to keep on sipping! I want more room in the cupboard, to bring in more teas!
To that end, I am having a cup of this. There isn’t a ton of it, and its not at all bad. I am also not moved to song with it, so it will not become one of the core teas, but I should not have a problem sipping it down, as long as I keep an eye on my goals.

I am filled with renewed vigor to actually try all the teas in my cupboard!
This has been sitting, in its charming little tin, untouched for a year. Well, along it goes to work with me!
Its a green tea with a burst of passion fruit, but more berry flavor than passion fruit. And a little more green base than either of those.
Hmm. Initial impression is that it won’t be a favorite, but it will be a nice sip in the afternoon.

I aspire to the same great ambitions but seem to lack to renewed vigour and continue to reach for favourites or near favourite. I totally tend to choose according to my whims.
