I'm running out of tea from Adagio...I'll have to order more. The other day when I had that tea I felt overall much better, rather than simply hyped up on caffeine. I wasn't jittery, or anything else...I was just "up".

Meanwhile, I can't believe I haven't written here for a while. I need to have some of the same teas for here at home, and at work. I miss them when I'm at home. I have the very low quality Darjeeling and Nilgiri from the Soulard market, and I don't like drinking it. Maybe I'll buy some of the Nilgiri from Adagio, if they sell it, and see how it tastes.

I've gone through most of the tea that I bought in about a month. $15/month for tea. Youch! I still have the Darjeeling #22 in the greatest quantity...I'm not real impressed by that one. So I've waited until I'm out of all of the other tea...

Today I had the Darjeeling. Not sure which 'flush' it is. I've discovered that for this tea, the timing of the picking of tea makes a difference in its taste. The #1 from Adagio is better than the #22, but the Darjeeling I have from the Soulard Market is somewhere in between. And then there's the strength of it. I need to start making it in the pot more to figure it out. When I like it better is when it's not too strong. It can't be too weak, either. If I do it right, then it has the wonderful cooling sensation that I like so much, even though it's hot.
