I’ve been drinking a lot of teas at work that I’d usually not drink at home. Fortunately, my Dad bought me tea sachets last Christmas, so I was able to stuff some up with a variety of random tea.
Now, I must first say that Angel Falls Coffee Shop carries quality cups of coffee (the only coffee I occasionally drink locally when the need suits me). However, the last time I ventured into the shop, I noticed they had a small wall dedicated to loose leaf tea. For the price of the teas ($2.50/2 oz), my friend and I grabbed a handful of the teas, and brought them to the house.
And lo and behold, I opened them for the first time two weeks ago to stuff in bags for work….
Now, I must admit that I’m not surprised that I don’t like this tea. As I previously mentioned, this place is good with coffee, but their tea is apparently horrid. I don’t know what is in the tea, but I assure you that the base is as bitter as anything, and it makes for an awful cup of tea. I must admit that when I drink this at work, I have to add some rock sugar to the cup for it to be palatable. Fortunately, my torture had ended tonight….
Overall, this is the first of a few more, so there could be a chance that I like the other 4….Only time will tell.
Flavors: Astringent, Bitter, Malt

I have a local coffee shop as well that carries tea too. Their coffee is fantastic, their tea not so much.
What surprises me is that there is another local coffee shop that I only venture into for their teas (they have few teas, but the pu-erh they carry is swell). Obviously, in this case, both shops specialize in one, but not the other.
