Tea Talk

Whatcha drinking today?

Thought it might be fun to have a thread where we can pop in from day to day and say what we're drinking for the day. What are YOU drinking today? :)

I've been on a black tea kick... yesterday it was Earl Grey Bravo all day. :); ▶ Reply to This

Then a cup of Rishi Keemun
Then a cup of Adagio's Citron Green
Then a resteep of the Citron Green
Now a cup of Gunpowder Green

And when I say cup, I mean a 16oz mug. =8-D; ▶ Reply to This

It's a cheap melon-shaped pu-erh made for export to europe and america and still very earthy (it'll never be a "great" pu-erh), but after a few years it's mellowed enough to be comfortable for everyday drinking. I found it in a local chinese grocery, which surprised the heck outa me since most of their other teas are in tea bags. It'll go about seven or eight steeps before losing most of it's flavor. Plenty to relax with after a long day at work. :); ▶ Reply to This

I've made an entire pot in the TriniTEA so I can drink some now and then take a travel mug on the road. :); ▶ Reply to This
