Darjeeling, two sugars please.

Think it'll be cold by the time it gets here though.

depends on the tea, then, doesn't it?

Green tea with milk, pu-erh with honey, darjeeling with lemon- I'm sure I can come up with more strange ones that are undrinkable.

the idea of green tea with milk just makes me shudder. euugh.

But that makes no sense, because many darjeelings, chemistry-wise, are about as close to green tea as you can get and darjeeling is perfectly acceptable with milk. It's more the green milk effect, I guess. And green-tea-ice-cream is green tea with milk, after all...

That's interesting about darjeelings being close to green tea. They seem so different to me. Darjeeling is definitely a stronger tea, and I much prefer it over green.

A nice organic Earl grey, black with a blob of honey please. :-)
Or plain old Japanese green tea.
Mm. tea.

Black tea, very hot, with ginger liqueur on a cold grey day.
I mostly just want to smell it and let it warm up my hands...

The best tea in the entire world is Market Spice (http://www.bluemoontea.com/teas.htm).
It's difficult to fond outside of Washington State though, unless you order it online.

What kind of flavor is it?

[identity profile] traceylee.livejournal.com 2002-07-13 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
The flavor is hard to describe. There is a definite taste of cinnamon oil, clove oil, and orange...but there are a few other subtle flavors.
If you're really curious, email me an address and I will send you a teabag. (I live in Spokane, WA...way too far away to be an effective stalker LOL)
