I needed a gentle tea this morning. It’s a good tea to drink when all you want to do is hide. Unfortunately, there’s no hiding to be done today, but the good news is that I can hide all weekend once the day is over.
I’m really liking the black base with jasmine. I tend to like black bases in general, and perhaps I may not have yet tried the “right” green jasmine. Admittedly I’ve just had the pearls from David’s tea, and although I liked them, I found the underlying grassiness or plant taste to be far too intrusive for me to really enjoy the taste of the jasmine. The hunt, however, continues, because I imagine there’s a nice, gentle jasmine green out there in this world. I also like white jasmine teas, so I should probably explore that a bit, too. I hope you guys are all as glad as I am that it’s Friday!

Are you my tea twin Keychange? I hate Jasmine green/oolongs, they make me wretch lol. But black tea with Jasmine? Oh sooooo good!
Some combinations of jasmine and oolong make me nauseous as well. Alas…
indigobloom (sorry I’ve been spelling your username wrong all along-I blame speech software!), would you like me to send you some of this?
Omg Keychange are you suggesting a swap :P
Well, more like I could send it to you along with anything else you see in my cupboard that you like. I don’t usually participate in large-scale swaps, the reason being that I can never tell the packages apart (though justJames and I came up with a cool way to do it so I could feel the difference) but I don’t like to inconvenience anyone. But yeah, you’re totally welcome to whatever you’d like!
Aww that’s too bad I was gonna send you a bag or two of Christmas Morning. It’s a Stash tea with black and jasmine :)
Oh, that sounds lovely! We can pm and figure out a way to make it work. I’m heading out tonight but will pm you once I’m settled again. Just expect slowness on my end in general LOL.
No worries, I’m not very on the ball with swaps myself! I’ll look for your msg, whenever is easiest! :)
