The scent of this steeping is really good at garnering compliments!

Cut this with some CTC Assam (H&S) for a morning cup yesterday. Pleased with the results! This tea is too interesting straight as a wake up tea, but mixed with my Assam it lent some complexity without being too confusing for a morning wake-up! tea.

A nice mellow cup for a Saturday afternoon. I’m going back to my usual position of preferring straight whites to flavoured, but I think it’s mostly because flavoured blends have broken bits of leaves instead of full leaves.

Had a mug of this last night before bed. Steeped a bit long, so the licorice was strong.

One of my new go-to teas at work, it appears. I am never able to predict what teas achieve that spot.

edit: Second steep is also quite nice! Mellow, not disappointing. Way to go, tea!

Today was the PERFECT cup. Crazy! Was late pouring in the water, so it was a bit below boiling, and then I forgot my tea a second time and it oversteeped, but that plus some milk and I got my dream cup.

A really lovely afternoon tea. I really enjoyed my time with it this afternoon.

My tea looked particularly delicious today. Perfect shade of tea.

Using a teabag so I can have this at work. Not happy about it! Tea itself looks to be doing the best it can under the circumstances, however.

No breakfast today. But I have tea!
