Ceylon Loose Tea from Whittard of Chelsea

gmathis drank Ceylon Loose Tea by Whittard of Chelsea

Straight up this morning; a good, sharp, coppery basic. Teases you awake instead of bulldozing you awake. A little milk would likely tone it down from a C sharp to a B flat but I don’t need toning at the moment.

I usually need a bulldozer AND a backhoe to get me semi-cheerfully out the door in the mornings.

Bio

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
