Chrine’s been drinking a lot of Series 1 lately so I decided why not. Had a cup of Dragonwell yesterday and it was tasty. I’m actually not super happy with series #1. Dragonwell is my favorite out of it, but I don’t get a love it factor. Ceylon wins second place in Series 1. For some reason, my cup of ceylon SHITS! Like literally, it smells horrible! I don’t know what happened today. I don’t remember it smelling this bad. It’s like super moldy right now. I think it’s because I accidentally steeped it for six minutes. It isn’t bitter and tastes like a typical smooth ceylon, but I have to refrain from inhaling the smell. It smells as if a rat died in my cup or something. Argh… darn plastic lids and thermos.
Ceylon
Black Tea by Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
You grew up next door to this tea. It would sit on the porch, talking on the cordless phone, and despite its old sweats and unkempt hair you had a hard time taking your eyes off it while you mowed the lawn. Your trips down the block to the mailbox had to be perfectly timed. You grew up, moved away, and made a name for yourself but every now and then a song surfaces on the random shuffle and it all comes back. A Google search yields nothing.
We like this black Ceylon tea best when it’s brewed a little strong. Heat your water to a roaring boil and use a heaping teaspoon of tea for each cup. Let it steep for up to 4 minutes. This tea is great with milk and sugar, if that’s what you’re into.
