Great Idea!
I was just reading through today's posts and saw Laran's post about putting tea leaves in her water bottle at work. I'm going to try that today! I wish I had thought of that some time ago!
Thanks

Yes pretty much so. Drinking organic green tea with orange blossoms from Rishi.
It's funny that this package from Rishi was sitting on my shelf for quite a while and I almost never used it because I really disliked the packaging, e.g., it was not comfortable to use. And then I placed the tea in an empty tin from Adagio and I'm almost done with the tea! It seems a bit silly but what a difference a packaging can make!

I'm working from home today, so my tea day is better than when I'm at work, as I can boil my own water and use my loose tea. It really depends where I am. I had been bringing loose tea to work, and I think I should start doing that again. The bags are just kind of blah (more so than usual) these days.
Today I'm drinking my Soom first flush Darjeeling - TGFOP! One of the most expensive teas I've bought. It has a lovely floral scent, now that I've got the steeping time right. Even my husband commented, saying that it smells like flowers.

Yikes, you need tea now more than ever to fight off that toxic waste!bishopmaple wrote:In a few weeks I will be stuck out at a hazardous waste site and wont be able to drink tea other than what I take on the way there.
As I said in the intro, I cannot remember the last day that was not a GREAT TeaDay.
I just have not had a bad cup in what seems like weeks. I guess I have the right mix of teas available right now. I started the day with Adagio Keemun Concerto. I am currently lovin' shincha Yutaka Midori from O-Cha ... 4th steep.
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!
Pretty much every day is good tea-wise. I'm a fulltime grad student, and my college is somewhat unique in that there are no classes (think, long-term independent study with advising, sort of thing), so I'm home all day. Tea whenever I want! It's the only way to get through 6-8+ solid hours of being bent over a book. Every day. We don't have days off, except between semesters.
Just a black at breakfast and some gunpowder green this morning, so far. Is it weird that I actually like the smokey-ish cheapcheapcheap gunpowder?

I'm now enjoying my best tea ever from Lupicia, it's a High Mountain Spring 2008 oolong from Mt. Alee - it is quite delicious!

Wenshan Baozhong, Subtropical Forest a little earlier. I am somehow likeing this more than the Two Year offering also from Teamasters, but I seem to be the only one. The aroma in the smelling cup is so complex and wonderful.
Now, some Farmer shincha with some gyokuro and karigane selections that I struggle to enjoy on their own. All 3 together are wonderful.

Best tea from Lupicia.
I think I am about 50:50 great tea days and not so great ones. Most of the reason for that is moving back to college always makes the weather turn sweltering for a few weeks and with very little circulation in a college dorm, the temperature is too high for me to be able to fully enjoy hot tea. When I am not restricted by high temperatures, my tea days are always great since any day that begins with a cup of hot tea is great by my standards. Until the weather starts cooperating, I am stuck with cold tea. Even though cold tea is still tasty, it just doesn't hit the spot like a hot tea does.
Since it is probably going to be about 90 here in northern New York State, I have been drinking all sorts of cold tea. I finished off the pitcher of iced ginger peach and now have moved on to some iced black current.
