The last of this tasty sample. Grandpa-style in a bowl. Delicious way to drink tea.

I just tossed a few of these pearls in with a re-steeping of English Tea Store’s Angels’ Dream tea. I was hoping that the floral, green tea flavour will meld wonderfully with the blackberry and maple flavours.
Perhaps it was not a wonderful melding, but it certainly is different and tasty.

Over the several years during which time I have had this tea, it has grown on me, and I have come to like it more and more. Sometimes I drink it strong, sometimes I drink it weak; sometimes with sugar, sometimes without. It has been a good and faithful tea, and I shall certainly miss it when I run out in the next week or so. I may just have to add it to my shopping list.

Thanks, Gunpowder, for helping me finish The Fellowship of the Ring.

Delicious. Drank this outside on my patio. Not as strong as I was expecting, but it was worth every second of the time I spent putting it through a good ten infusions.

Profile

Bio

“I love trading tea and trying new teas. My favourites are oolong (mainly Chinese) and pu’erh.
Will gladly talk all day about tea.”

The above was my bio when I joined three years ago, and I felt it needed to be updated. I still love pu’erh, though I have begun to take preference toward cooked, shou. Oolongs are certainly still a go-to tea for me, but I have expanded my horizons to begin including greens and blacks based upon the weather and how I am feeling.

Still more than glad to talk about tea – anytime, anywhere, anyplace.
Additionally, if fountain pens, books, music, or computers are on the discussion list…
