Mighty Leaf Tea

I ordered a gift set of tea Mighty Leaf for my ex-wife for a Christmas gift...On Tuesday or Wednesday of this week, about 3 or 4 days ago, and have not received confirmation that it has shipped. I understand about Thanksgiving being in the way, but I still thought I would have heard something by now. Not a good sign, especially when I paid more for this tea that I would have from Adagio. I hope she likes it.

For myself, I ordered some black teas from Mighty Leaf, to try it out. I'm not feeling the love at this point.

A couple of weeks ago I came across a surprise stash of Yunnan Jig, and I was so happy! I made some for my mother and myself on a cold, rainy, overcast day. It hit the spot, and my mom said that it was "really smooth." I get why hot tea is such a revelation, and why the English in particular valued it so highly. They have many overcast, rainy, cold, wet days, and hot tea just does something for you that coffee doesn't. It may be the clarity of the liquid, in terms of its taste. Just something special. And then the different flavors...good stuff.
