Maybe I expected too much, as I love some of Upton’s other breakfast teas, but this left me a trifle disappointed. It’s smooth and easy to drink, but doesn’t stand up well to milk (I must have milk with my morning tea… I think it’s left over from being a coffee drinker!) It’s not a bad tea, not at all, it’s just not for me (for reference, I love the Scottish and River Shannon teas from Upton.)
I’m pretty new to the world of tea! I took up tea drinking to help control my coffee consumption, but it seems that I have just created another sort of monster!
I like strong flavors and bold teas. My favorites types include Scottish Breakfast, Earl Grey, and roasted mate. I have recently discovered a love for dessert teas, and my obsession with mint is ongoing.
I am a professional singer, and I’ve had a habit of drinking peppermint and throat coat teas leading up to any performance. I have too many cats and too many hobbies. I blog about sewing and knitting my own clothes (and, most recently, about tea!)
