The only Tea plantation in all of Europe is here in the Azores...

Got a friend in the tea business , asked for a sample of something different to try.  Given a little zip bag of some very dubious looking leafy stuff, something you would think you would probably need to smoke rather than drink. Turned out to be Gun Powder Tea, pretty exotic stuff it was. can't say  on tasting it blew me away ,but the the price of it does.

Constant Comment was my grandmother's "company" tea.  So it became my mother's.  And now it is mine.  I collect random tea from around the world.  But for special occasions I still pull out the trusty Constant Comment.  And it never fails that people love it and ask where to get it (assuming it is one of my obscure blends).  The amazement when I tell them it is in their local grocery store always makes me giggle.  And I feel a little sad that their grandmother's didn't have tea parties with them with Constant Comment.  It is one of those tastes that has all sorts of emotions tied up in it for me.  And I love passing all of that on to my loved ones.

It's great in the Winter and when you have a sore throat. Not as good as the previous version, Tazo Orange Blossom.

Tazo Wild Sweet Orange Full Leaf Tea with honey. 

Will that be sweet tea?

Irish Breakfast and Cinnamon teas are my standard.  If I need to nap, a cup of Chamomile will do it.

I flip between Republic of Tea's Darjeeling & Earl Grey, once in a while I'll have just a 'plain ol' Lipton

I drink that almost every day. In the evenings I switch something non caffeinated.

Lately I've been liking this about one evening a week.
