drank Cream Irish Breakfast by Tealux
1443 tasting notes

Enjoying this tea as I settle in to study before my exam tomorrow. The creaminess will never get old. The black base is great, and of course the cream accentuates it wonderfully.

This morning was quite eventful. I have a psychology presentation and paper due the day I return from Jamaica, which meant I had to get my research done beforehand. The abundant time spent on planes will be perfect for preparing the actual paper and presentation. I decided to examine social influence in religion. And what better way to examine than to attend a meeting/service/mass? So that is what I did this morning. I may be a scientist, but that doesn’t stop me from having a curiosity about religion, and overall it was a fascinating experience.

I’m glad everything worked out so that you can go to Jamaica.

That’s really interesting. I had to do a paper on a religion in my first year of university and we had to attend a meeting/seminar. Was kind of cool. This reminds me of some research a linguist in southern Alberta is doing. She’s discovered a correlation between Mormonism and pronunciation, oddly. She thought the religion aspect would be boring at first, but despite being a scientist too, she also ended up liking the religion aspect. Go figure!

And best of luck on your exam tomorrow!

Everyone else was doing something in sales and social influence and it just seemed to me that religion has an incredible social influence so I chose that instead. I actually chose a specific religion, which I had to get okayed beforehand by my prof. and it was quite fascinating. I’ve never been a religious person, but it doesn’t hurt to learn how other people view the world.

And thanks!

I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos (green preferable to red), herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens (mango or pineapple, yum!).

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).
