drank Keemun Concerto by Adagio Teas
330 tasting notes

We are out of real half & half at work, so I had to use coffee-mate again. Ew. I swear that stuff brings out any bitterness whatsoever in your tea that might be lurking. I was surprised this morning when my dependable Keemun tasted bitter, and I felt I definitely had not oversteeped it. That means the only culprit is the creamer.

Maybe I should start bringing in my own half & half. Because co-workers totally don’t find brewing loose tea weird enough… /sarcasm

I keep my half & half in a glass jar with a lid in the frig which keeps it fresh even longer. You could do that for work and even cover the contents or label it goat milk (that will keep your milk safe).

Hehe, I should totally pick up a glass jar of goat milk and refill it with half&half after using it for Chai :D But, I am not really worried about people at work using it, they are pretty nice folks, even if they do think my tea habits are a bit overboard :)

Bio

When I was a very young child, I swallowed an ice cube whole. It got stuck in my throat, and my mother had me drink hot tea to melt it away. That started a love affair with tea that has never abated.

I dabbled with Celestial Seasonings and other grocery store teabags for awhile, in my young and foolish days. But a few years ago, I received a tea of the month subscription from Adagio, and I found that there was a whole other world of tea out there that I had never experienced.

I love drinking tea, and I love the personal ceremony of making a glass or pot of tea for myself. It’s like a meditation.
