Fujian Congou Black Tea from Nature's Tea Leaf

gmathis drank Fujian Congou Black Tea by Nature's Tea Leaf

Been looking forward to Saturday simply because I can enjoy this slowly, not on the morning run. Didn’t much watch steep time; just plopped in a generous amount of leaf and let it go. Just as deep-cocoa and dark-fruity as before.

Yay! Another tea I get to label “forgiving.” Put it in … whatever … it’s going to be great. Breakfast tea friends, this is a gotta-try.

“Forgiving” teas are so nice to have on the shelf for those days when everything has to be done right now! or the world will explode. Must add this one to my shopping list.

Excellent observation. I have more of those world-will-explode days than I do take-your-time days!

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.
