Tea Time: Dang, this is good. I’m grandpa’ing it at the moment. Strong, sweet, and earthy flavors bouncing on the tongue. Powerful stuff (or it could be the rest of the tea I’ve spent drinking throughout the day). I’m giddy because 1. It’s Friday; 2. It’s the weekend; 3. I just got the next two books of the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan in the mail; and 4. I start my MBA in January! :D
Back to the tea: This one brews up for a long time. I decided to grandpa style my way through the last 10g of the tea. I only bought a sample of the 2017 & 2018 to compare the notes, but I lost them a while back (or I forgot which notebook I placed them). I like this shou, but I may not get anymore of it. I’m trying to get as much of the shou I currently have sipped down, so that I may begin storing more and aging some raw puerh.
PS. I’ll have my first tea room experience tomorrow. The wife and I had set an appointment at this place weeks ago because the last time we attempted to drop by, they were booked for the full day. I’ll have to make notes on here afterwards, but it’ll hopefully be a grand time!

Yep, I got three books in the mail today too, so it’s a good day. I can never keep up with them!
I hope you have fun at the tea room tomorrow.
Tea + books in the mail is one of best things, ever.
And thank you! I’m looking forward to it.
I will never completely conquer Mount ToBeRead. Enjoy your tea room date!
Well, I’d like to meet the one person who has any sort of TBR pile that has actually conquered it. There are many TBR mountains in that range. haha. :D
Only book people understand. I was scandalized not long ago when I bit on one of those click-bait features about “30 ways to declutter” … and nearing the top of the list was “get rid of books you’ve read ONCE.” Scandalous!
WHAT once?!?! never.
