Sipdown no. 201. The rest of the sample. I briefly considered trying to do an entire day of avoiding sipdowns. Then I thought maybe I should go the opposite direction and try to do all sipdowns today. Then I decided I was seriously overthinking this and should spend no more time even considering the question.

I have come to a realization, though. I like this so much better than the Adagio Apricot. I know I have a Mariage Freres Apricot in my stash after having done a sort of quasi-inventory project the other day, but really, unless that one is even better, I really see no reason to have multiple apricot teas some of which I like better than others. Why not just have one I really like?

And then, just when I was ready to standardize on this (for now) as my apricot black tea of choice for all the reasons stated in my previous note (and bumped up the rating accordingly), I discovered that this tea is no longer available on the ATR site.

Wwwwhhhhaaaaaaa!

ATR does apricot so well. Love Tangier.

__Morgana__

I haven’t tried Tangier. I need to look to see if I have a sample of it.

__Morgana__

Woo hoo, I just found an unopened sample of Tangier! I’ll put it in the queue to try.

Fjellrev

Awesome, curious to see what you’ll think of it!

Nicole

Have you tried Harney’s Apricot black?

__Morgana__

Nicole, I don’t think I have. Maybe I’ll order a sample next time I order from them.

Teatotaler

Carytown Teas also dose a really superb organic apricot black. I have plenty of it if either of you would care to try some. :)

__Morgana__

That’s a lovely offer, Teatotaler, but I already have at least two other apricot teas and I’m currently under threat of being disowned if I bring any more tea into the house. ;-) But I’ll definitely keep this info for future reference.

Oh interesting! So I was just trying to log David’s Chocolate Orange tea, and the website wouldn’t let me. So I decided to try logging another one and it’s working fine. Idk what that means really. But HI!! I drank lots of tea this week!

I saw the page you’re having issues with. To fix it, scroll down the weird page to the “Edit Tea Info” link, click and you’ll go to the update tea page. You don’t have to change any information about the tea, just click Update Tea at the bottom, and that will set the page back to normal, where you can then review the tea!

Hey Shmiracles! Good to see you back around!

Shmiracles

Thanks for the tip, derk! I’ll be sure to do this from now on.

sitting in the library waiting for hours five, six and seven of classes to start and thought i’d play catch up.

if i go light on the word count i could stop at ‘wow’. add to that ‘damn’ (because i just got a sample size), and ‘jam’ or maybe ‘more!!!!’……. do exclamation points count as extra words?

i have no idea what’s going on with ATR. i don’t now if they’re refining, reviewing, tweaking- all of the above? pretty sure it isn’t my tongue. needless to say they have impressed me immensely lately whereas before they were interesting, but not incredible. goes to show businesses improve and bring their products along for the ride.

this blend is apricot jam. a hint of the stone is detectable, convincing me that it’s fresh in my cup.

awesome. now for some last minute reading……
