A cup of NBTea's Natela's Gold Standard.
They say it is black, but I know better.
It is very similar to Georgian Old Lady and both of them have code WG that stands for White tea; origin Georgia. It is probably a mistake on the website. Also, no black tea is to be brewed at 70-80ºC - white tea temperature.

Anyway.
I brewed it at 80ºC, 3 1/2 minutes.
Pleasant taste. A bit sweet. The flavour is more pronounced than Georgian Old Lady. [Iridal, you could try this one without sugar ]
It is a good candidate for re-ordering as a light tea.

Water in my cup. I ended up NOT doing any work today, and instead spent a fun day with my parents, and I will be meeting up with some good friends later. Nice, eh? I WILL try to get some work done now, though, at least a little bit. I like to feel productive.

You're right. Family is just as nice and it is good to 'let your hair loose'!

White wine in my cup.

Morning everybody.

A cup of Sikkim Second Flush Temi TGFOP1.
It tasted very good at home. I want to see how it fares with office water.

Indian black tea Sikkim was very pleasant. Probably the best flavour I managed to coax out of black teas in the office. It was not as good as it was at home but still better than others, such as Taylors of Harrogate's Tea Room Blend, Ahmad's Hampton Breakfast, Twinings English Breakfast and New English Tea's English Breakfast (although this one is probably on the second place).


Water in a flask and white yogurt next to it.

I tried tea without sugar a couple of months ago, and I really don't like it

Back to the samples today. Had a cup of Rooibos blood orange, and it was good. I'm going to have a cup of Rooibos Aronia Acerola with lunch in a minute.

Sometimes it's nice to just relax for a day. I hope you had fun And good luck with the thesis!
