Tea

No.

Unless you're doing it wrong by like.. adding sugar or something.

Time for another cup, I had 2 large heaped teaspoons of Gyokuro this morning, now I'll have some China Jasmine.

Nice relaxing and well narrated amateur documentary on tea

I am a big chai fan, UK based, and I'm always on the lookout for a good blend. Tick Tock used to make a delicious vanilla chai rooibos and clipper still make a lovely chai blend.

I wonder if anyone has good recommendations, from any source, either tea bag or loose leaf?

Smells leafy. Almost not bitter at all, sliiightly sour. Overall pretty balanced.I don't have much experience at describing tea but I can tell I like this one :)

I've heard that Raw (sheng) pu-erh, green and sometimes oolong teas are good for hot weather.

Is it true?

Do you have any recommendations or preferences on that?

A bit lighter in taste this time. Still a lovely steep of a good quality oolong.

What's the last oolong your tried? Or are you planning on trying one someday?

When I drink yerba mate I often spill it accidentally because I hit the bombilla. Are there any spill proof options out there?

I left the world of tea years ago and recently was indoctrinated by the amazing taste and health benefits of Oolong.

Hi! Please make yourself at home c:

As titled - what is your preferred brew or steep method?

What do you drink the most? Hot or cold?

I drink a lot of oolong and pu-erh teas brewing gong-fu style and I have yet to try coldbrew c:

This tea is very unique - it's a 2005 Shu Pu-Erh tea, but with a twist! It tastes like fried Shrimp, and don't get me wrong - it's delicious.

Shan Lin Xi bug bitten and charcoal roasted oolong in the cup. What's in yours?

Please don't feel intimidated by me doing gong fu :) It's just a preference, not a must.

I'm starting my day with the High Mountain Xiong Di Zai dancong from Yuunan Sourcing.

What's in your cup today?
