I’ve been wanting to revisit this one for a while now, but I’ve been too distracted by the New and Shiny. :P

Even after all the new teas I’ve tried lately, this is still one of my favorites. :) I love how smooth and creamy this tea is, and I like the vanilla in it, but nothing overpowers the bergamot. Yum! :)

New and shiny is SUCH a danger with me and tea. Oh, to not be so easily distracted…

the quiet life

Hahaha, I knowww! And I keep seeing new tea I want to try. Hopefully I’ll be able to resist, at least for a little while longer. :P Maybe someone should just confiscate my internet…

And the teas that they tempt you with on the Steepster Select! Don’t you always want to order it? I do and have to remind myself that I have tea tins in the cupboard that still needs opening ….!

the quiet life

Omg, I know. I want all of the Select things! Especially when they’re samplers. But samplers tend to be the most evil, because then they make me want to buy the full sizes. And I have no room for more tea! lol

I blame half of my tea obsession on Japan and the time I spent there in a study abroad program. Tea is everywhere in Japan, and I drank it daily while staying with my host family. When I came back home, I found myself craving it!

The other half of my tea obsession I blame on my job as a barista at Borders, where we serve Tazo loose leaf teas. I hadn’t even considered loose leaf teas a possibility until I started working there! The freshness and the difference in quality really turned me on to loose leaf teas.

So bit by bit, I’ve been increasing my tea self-education, and I drink tea at least once a day. I love trying new kinds, and unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), the more I learn, the more I want to try!

In addition to tea, I also enjoy books and music. If you would like, look for me on last.fm (user: giragirataiyou) or Goodreads (user: thexquietxlife). :)
