Shmiracles drank English Rose by DAVIDsTEA

i went to davidstea in chicago, bought an ounce of this, and then went back 5 hours later and bought 2 more ounces for my sister. it’s a tea that calls out her name. and she’s the one i owe my enjoyment of tea to (well, her and british television) so i LOVE sharing all of my tea with her and giving her tiny tea gifts.

ya know, i came to log this tea, and then i IMMEDIATELY got side tracked by TheTeaFairy’s post about it
so that probably means we should just go read that instead.

besides, my nose is too congested right now to properly enjoy this tea. sad sad.
(it’s just that i have tiny scarred sinuses, it’s not a cold or anything, don’t worry.)
(i hate to think on how my sinus effect my enjoyment of tea. i’ll go irrigate i guess.)

What a sweet thing to do for your sister Shmiracles! And what a sweet thing to say about my review :-) Can’t wait to read what you have to write about it yourself when your sinuses clear up! I’m alreay out of the 50 gr I bought, it’s one of those tea that I can’t label as «extraordinary» but I keep finding myself craving for it…I always go «hmmm» when I have my first sip! I will buy a 100gr tin of this tea to make sure I always have some around :-)
