Got some Chinese black tea with rose in it yesterday. Interesting stuff. Has a sweet taste to it.

Went to the tea store looking for Assam Banaspaty (if I have that spelled right). They didn't have it, but they had stuff from a few other estates

Assam is apparently grown on a particular side of a particular river in India and the name is gets is the name of the estate it comes from. The store I was at has eleven different estates, but there are hundreds. The men there recommended Assam Tarajulie so I'm giving that a try. I know the DavidsTea moving in has Banaspaty so I'll have to wait for them to show, or make a trip downtown to the Fairmont hotel for some of theirs.

i have had a breakfest tea caled assam gold, it was light and very aromatic, i liked it best with a dash of milk and honey

[Ae86]

I love tea. I can drink tea at anytime of the day lol. I'm not picky on my tea.. But I do prefer cold tea, and has to have some sort of flavoring..

[Quiet Man Cometh]

The Tarajulie assam is something called gold tip, and I liked it, but I'll keep a look out for what you mentioned Shohn.


I've never really been fond of cold tea. I guess when it's hot and I don't particularly want anything else, but I rarely make tea that is cold. I usually have the brisk or whatever stuff in a can. That probably doesn't count.

I'm not really much into tea. Actually, I'm going to stop drinking anything that has caffine in it and just stick with water or juice from now on. Homemade juice or the Simply orange and Simply apple stuff.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

We have a jug of Simply Orange in the fridge right now. Probably not a bad idea for me since I'm toying with what to eat. Sugar in the form of fruit juice right now it probably better for me than sugar in the form of more tea.

It's raining outside and I'm not doing much of anything right now. (Okay, well I'm on tris and facebook gaming when I could be job searching or doing something slightly more productive than I am). It's a plain tea day.

I love tea, my favorite is green tea.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

I have over indulged today I think. Three cups so far, one of them decaf, but I need some water to balance things out. Haven't been paying enough attention to how late it's getting.

Went to Breckenridge a couple months back and bought three bags of pomegranate oolong tea-best tea I've ever had hands down

[Quiet Man Cometh]

I don't think I've even tried oolong tea. Is it something particular to itself or is it a type or black or green tea?

I've only tried pomegranate green tea from Tetly, and I've decided that tetly makes crummy green tea so haven't had any in a while. I like hot pomegranate juice though, when I have it around.

[Agent Night]

According to wikipedia there are several different kinds of oolong, and the pomegranate oolong that I like is very fruity with almost no discernible "tea" taste to it. I've also had a darker oolong that had a very nutty taste to it, but I can't remember which one it was

[Quiet Man Cometh]

I know teas all come from the same plant, but are prepared differentlt depending on type.

Asking my mom here, since her dad used to drink lapsang suchong and oolong all the time. Her mother used to say that one was like an old English trunk and the other was smoked. I've had Lapsang Sushong so I suspect that's the smokey one. Not sure what an English would smell like.

i drank a beautiful cup of pomegranate white tea

[Lancelot]

I had no idea there were other drinks beside tea? I live off it, my body is 99 percent tea. I'd need a tea fusion if I ever got into an accident, I'm that tea addicted.
