March 18, 2008

Today, I had some horrible oolong tea in a bag from some Chinese restaurant that's been sitting in my desk for way too long, it would seem, since the tea was so bad. It had no flavor, smelled bad...ultimately, I couldn't drink it. The brand is "Kari-Out Company" White Plains NY...ick!

I haven't had a lot of tea lately, and it is very depressing. Mightly Leaf Tea says they will send me some samples, and they think of this as 'a conversation'...which is cool with me. I didn't realize that I've become a tea reviewer, but that's kinda what's happened. "The only way to get to be an expert wine drinker is to drink a lot of wine," I've heard it said, so I imagine the same applies to tea.

I also don't like that I feel limited to the Assam Gold Rain. It's just too strong, or something. I have other moods and feelings about what tea to drink. Maybe I should have more of the Christmas tea...
