North African Mint (organic) from DAVIDsTEA

I know I’m posting early today, but my night will be filled with driving to the States, listing everything I own, and having a massive panic attack.

This is Day #9 on the DT advent calendar, and it’s a good one. I’m enjoying my cup, but I’m not entirely sure I’d ever seek this one out. But after my morning of completely freaking out over all of this border stress, it’s helped calm me down a bit, which I am grateful for.

Hope everything goes well for you. Happy thoughts.

I really enjoyed this tea today. It was on my list to try. Not sure if I will buy it either but I did enjoy it.

Deep breaths! I hope it goes well, and enjoy the warmer weather down south while you can!
I tried this one as a sample one day. It was nice… but like you I’m not sure I would buy it

My tastes in tea have changed, so I should update this as well. I find myself leaning more towards rooibos and herbals, if only for their great ability to chill in my travel mug for hours and not get weird on me. When I have time to properly brew a cuppa, I lean towards white teas (which I only steep for 30 seconds) and black teas (which only get 2-3 minutes from me). I cannot stand green teas, they’re too fiddly for my tastes. Oolongs are great, but a bit fiddly as well. However, I love watching oolongs open up in my looseleaf brewer. I’m slowly discovering mates and falling for them…there are many I look forward to trying!

So…yeah. That’s me and my tea!
