This has become my Pick Me Up tea, particularly when I don’t feel like getting up in the morning. A staple in my cupboard, I just restocked in Verdant’s last Tea Tour sale. Most definitely a must (unless you have an aversion to chocolatey teas), and well worth the price. Bonus points on being super-easy to clean after, since the leaves are so big.
When I came back from my latest trip to the US the Jet Lag was just horrendous, and coupled with a nasty respiratory infection. This tea is what kept me alive during that difficult time, and I am forever indebted to it for doing so. Also, although this tea is a strongish black tea, the thought of adding milk to it seems SACRILEGIOUS somehow :)
This is You :-D
Profile
Bio
An Israeli computer programmer with a passion for tea (mostly bought in yearly shopping sprees in the UK), particularly black, oolong and white. I don’t generally enjoy flavoured teas or herbal infusions, but if a tea sounds interesting and smells nice I’ll most definitely try it. I drink several cups of tea a day, usually one or two in the morning, another one after lunch and one or two in the evening. My favourite tea so far is Lao Cong Zi Ya from Norbu Tea, but I’m constantly trying new teas. Only in the past year have I branched into Pu’erh and non-roasted oolongs. Finding good tea in Israel is difficult, so I import most of my teas from yearly visits to London, or from online retailers. If you see something in my cupboard that sparks your interest and you would like to swap with me, then please message me. I’m almost always up for a swap.
