Howdy

by Deleted User #9040 » Dec 12th, '07, 10:12

I have spent the last 2 months beginning my discovery of tea as well as this site. I have posted a couple of times already but decided I should say hi here.

I have always been a coffee drinker with very little tea consumed except when in the bush in Alaska ( tea is the traditional drink in the north woods because it goes alot further than the same amount of coffee).

I became interested in tea as an everyday drink when I learned of the health benefits of tea, particularly white tea, this last summer.
My favorites so far are White Peony and Snowbud-I also like some of the green as well some of the black-haven't tried any oolongs yet but I will.

I also am a fan of some of the herbals ie rooibos, peppermint, chamomile to name three. I don't know if you can buy it anywhere but a really good tea (infusion) is spruce needle. I drink it often in the bush, fresh spruce needles and boiling water and thats it.

Anyway, just thought I'd say howdy.

Snowfly,

Welcome to Teachat! Glad to have you with us!

I would definitely try some oolongs soon. Particularly Ti Kuan Yin, it is much delicious.

Welcome aboard Snowfly !

By the way, the Alaskan bush... Man that sounds intriguing... Furthermore, it sounds like out there, tea is a MUST!

Hi Snowfly--

Are you in Alaska now? I am hoping to visit in May, although my plans are not secure yet. I have wanted to visit AK as long as I can remember.

And btw, welcome. :-)
