You laugh!
Gosh, it was awful.
Anyway - since I was just reading/studying the "how to photograph..." thread, thought I'd share some 'color' here; here's my ice split with the Moonlight White in it. Playing with manual and f stop and shutter speed, I think I acheived a better portrayal of the true character of this wan. What do you think?

I have not figured out how to quote a post......somebody mentioned that the Matcha from Teavana was bad, it is amazing how everybod's taste is different, because I have ordered Matcha from different places but still find Teavana to be one of the best I have drank. The others always seem very very bitter but Teavana was mild and good.

Chris, you just hit the "Quote" button on the top right of someone's post.
:) Maybe the Teavana is the best of what you have tried, and if you like it, enjoy it!!

Ok, I know have the official worst tea of 2009 - Glenburn Green Delight 2nd Flush Darjeeling. It tastes like chamomile gone bad. I just confirmed it.
