I have to say, figuring this tea out was a challenge and also incredibly rewarding. I use two generous teaspoons in my work mug and adding a touch of sweetener rewards me of something close to mexican hot chocolate. Maybe it’s growing on me or maybe my sinuses are so bad that I need the spicy kick. Either way, I’ve warmed towards this tea as it’s gotten colder and I’ve been drinking it over my Davidstea Jasmine Pearls. That’s saying something.
This is You :-D

Bio
I recently discovered loose leaf tea and am already addicted (much to my husband’s dismay)! I prefer fruity teas iced and savory teas hot. Looking forward to drinking and chatting.
Some likes/dislikes I’ve been noticing:
Likes:
Pineapple
Jasmine
Fruity White Teas
lighters Blacks
Most Oolongs (especially greener varieties)
dessert teas
tisanes iced that don’t require added sweetener
Dislikes:
Spicy flavors unless in chai
astringent black teas
heavy ginger teas
teas with licorice (as primary ingredients – somehow I like some where the licorice is in the back drop)
heavily oxidized oolongs

For my own reference, I’m only placing “full size” teas in my cupboard.
