Good evening, dear readers.

Today marks the day of my first cup of my favourite tea since about two years ago when I ran out of my 454g of the stuff. MEM Tea Imports, out of Boston, Massachusetts, makes this wonderful white tea with peony petals in the blend. The result; White Peony Loose Leaf.
It is extremely delicate, light and gentle in it's flavour. Like most white teas, but somehow even smoother, not dry or bitter. It has delightful notes of a late spring morning. Hot, it is especially pleasant on those cooler mornings...but it is absolutely lovely iced.
 Long story short; I ended up coming home with 115g - which was a bit of a belt buster as teas go; $5.00/28g retail.

O, but it is well worth it.

In Delight,
Her Grace

Word of the Day: Rebirth

Good Day, readers.

As some of you (might) have noticed, I have reworked this blog. It is a new deal. I will continue to share my caffeine-related adventures with you, offer some tea and coffee tasting ideas and all-together point you in a direction of tasting the deliciousness that is tea. I welcome any thoughts and ideas and definitely some tea suggestions.
I also will point you in towards a variety of links -> Music, food, theatre, tea, coffee, art. Please visit these sites; they are some pretty cool cats.

I look forward to hearing from you/writing my tea-thoughts to you!
 Cheers,
Her Grace
