108 Tasting Notes
Went on a shopping spree yesterday at Harney & Sons in SoHo. Picked up a 4oz tin of this. And boy am I happy I did. This is one of those teas that makes the day start off correctly.
The sweet aroma and fruit flavors awaken the pallate.
Preparation
The inaugural brew in my new 20oz Stainless Steel travel Tea Pot!
I am SO excited. Not only did I get this, I also got a $50 dollar gift card to Harney and Sons to buy a Loose leaf teapot and of course more loose leaf tea!
It was a wonderful Christmas morning. HAPPY HAPPY TO ALL OF YOU!
Preparation
Joy! Joy! I have the Beehouse teapot, the Stump pot, and bought the Curve ForLife (I think that’s it) teapot for a friend and love them all! The Beehouse is nice and you can remove the metal lid if you want to reheat in the microwave, which you can’t do with the stump pot, but I love how the Stump pots stack! They can’t go in the micro though. The Curve pot is nice because the lid has a silicone gasket that keeps the lid from falling off as you pour and tilt it far. Which teapot are you thinking of getting?
i got this for xmas http://www.mightyleaf.com/teaware_travel/brewer-travel-teapot/ I LOVE IT SO FAR
but I was thinking of getting the Curve 24 oz Teapot with the infuser. probably in grey. :) Thanks for the tips though!
Wow, that looks really high tech! Very cool pot. I bought the Curve 24 ounce pot for a friend. She wanted red because she has red accents in her kitchen. I don’t have one yet, but I plan for that to be my next teapot purchase. I don’t know what color I will get yet.
Bad day at work today. But this was in my tea mug.
Every time I took a sip, i was transported to my happy place.
I woke up too late yesterday morning, so I didn’t have time to brew a proper cup of tea at home. So my alternative? This, in a paper cup from the bakery next door from work.
Not a bad cup of Earl Grey, but let’s be honest, nothing tastes good in a paper to go cup.
Ate at Harney SoHo for lunch today.
Oh man the food was tasty. I had Ham and Gruyere Scones which came with this KILLER mustard. I don’t usually like mustard, but this was FANTASTIC.
I also got myself a tea to go. I would have splurged for a small pot of tea, but during my lunch break, time is of the essence. So i couldn’t relax with a whole pot.
I’ve wanted to try Queen Catherine for a while. And i am sad I waited this long! I love the smokey flavor of the tea. The blend of the 3 black teas, is perfect.
This certainly is on my shopping list now, oh how my tea cabinet is growing!
