drank James Joyce by Simpson & Vail
501 tasting notes

I have managed to sip down most of the packet, and I enjoy the second steep better than the first. There is an astringent note that creeps in as it cools, so it’s best drunk early in the day and slurped quickly. I’ll probably add this to an order just because it’s a strong black tea Maybe I should read some Joyce?

I tried “Ulysses” years ago and put it down. He made me work way too hard.

Hmmm the unabridged version of Ulysses is 30 hrs long in audiobook form. Yikes!

I think Dubliners is a lot more accessible than Ulysses. It’s much shorter, too.

Bio

I started drinking more tea about 10 years ago when I found that even my half -caf coffee was making me jittery and then sleepy after the caffeine wore off. While I started out with mostly Teavana, but soon expanded my tea cupboard to include lapsang souchon, pu-erh, Assam, and other strong black teas. I do enjoy oolongs, green, and other teas, as well as a nice tisane for an evening cuppa.
I’m not fond of jasmine or bergamont teas, though I’ll try anything once.
I am an avid traveler, hiker, soccer player/watcher.
I love trying new tea in new places, if you see something in my cupboard you want to try, hit me up for a swap!
