I much preferred this tea the last time around that I had it. This time? Just a meh.

I wouldn’t say no to it… but I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy more, either.

I’m suspecting there’s something weird in the hot water/cups at my coworking space, because everything I’ve made here hasn’t thrilled me, when it did other reviewers / my own self with previous iterations.

Mastress Alita has been having a similar problem at her workplace. She’s been making tea at home and taking it. Since the problem at work didn’t get resolved.

I travel full time, so there’s no way for me to avoid using whatever facilities I have access to. Plus, I drink at least eight different cups of tea a day.

It could be the water (most likely) but I’ll give my fine mesh tea strainer a good scrub with some baking soda. It usually does the trick, enough at least where I’m not complaining.

It could, however, just be the tea. It’s different than when I bought it last time – added sweeteners, different propotions, etc.

A few years ago, the obsession with tea started. The cupboard got bigger and bigger, more swaps occurred, group buys, secret rendezvous with local teapassionistas… and that’s how you end up with 500+ different kinds of tea in your home. At one time.

Almost all of the tea was given away, sold, or otherwise shared. A few relics still remain. I now travel full time with only two carryon bags to my name. One quarter of those bags are tea.

It’s still a challenge to avoid the chipmunk-like hoarding of The Teas, yet, the lightness of being from having so little compels me more.

If I have enough, I’m happy to share. If I’m in your area, I’d love to swap, meet for tea, and explore together.

As for the day-to-day stuff, I’m focused almost entirely on Love, (yes, with a capital L), Spirit/Self, transformation, travel and my writing and speaking work.

What kinds of teas do I normally like?

YES: flavored teas, fruity, dessert, chai, and spicy (REALLY spicy).

A FONDNESS FOR: all white teas, malty black teas, any herbal or medicinal teas, strange/weird teas you can only get in one place.

ALLERGIC TO: strawberries, lavender

DISLIKES: any added sugars, grains, lapsang souchong, and overly floral teas – I might enjoy a Jasmine Green every once in a while, but unless it’s a creamy floral tea (think roses in a chai, or the smoothness of a floral note in a French tea), I’ll likely pass. Earl Greys are a hit or miss with me; heavy on the cream or fruit notes and I might like it, heavy on the blergamot and I definitely won’t.
