I like to drink it a lot, it's a south indian tea. In my opinion it's one of the better black tea's I have found here. "Thé de Kérala" is on the box.
The big bonus is that it's a fairtrade organic tea, sometimes a difficult combination to find.

First mug of tea on a chilly, damp day.

Thank you very much for the offer. Hopefully, it won't be necessary and I'll get down there sometime this month. Just need to plan ahead enough that I can order it to our Pony Express box. If I'm the one headed down, it wouldn't be an issue, but if my DW comes down, I don't want her to have to chase around to get my tea.

Sounds good. I have a tin of organic Darjeeling here that's not a bad 2nd Flush Darjeeling, but north of where yours is from, and probably higher. And my favourite Anniversary Breakfast Blend has a healthy chunk of Nilgiri in it, which is definitely southern India.

Drinking cranberry juice now, but looking forward to a nice touch of Highland Park 12 Yr. tonight.

Nescafe Cappuccino Mocha. It's not bad for a powdered drink.

Froide · 04-09-2015, 12:10 PM

H20, from the tap.

CRussel · 04-09-2015, 12:37 PM

Peet's Major Dickason's Blend coffee. Going to be the last good day before another storm hits, but I'll be trapped at the computer pretty much all day.

CRussel · 04-09-2015, 05:32 PM

A huge mug of Phoenix Mountain Oolong to get me through the afternoon.

cromag · 04-09-2015, 05:38 PM

Second mug of tea for the day.

kindlekitten · 04-09-2015, 07:47 PM

Mango Italian soda. That was a mistake. Nothing in the drink had ever been anywhere near a mango. I think they used artificial sweetner as well which I loathe

CRussel · 04-09-2015, 08:46 PM

Yech!

OTOH, I had a Tim Horton's Peach something drink the other day, and it was actually remarkably good. Honestly, I didn't expect much of anything, but was pleasantly surprised.

Still sipping the Phoenix Mountain Oolong. But I think I need to make another pot, this one's nearly gone.

Wrapping my fingers around my first mug of tea on a day that's much chillier and damper than the forecasters led me to expect.

CRussel · 04-10-2015, 04:54 PM

Hmmm. Just sitting here realizing I don't have any tea in my mug and I really should be working instead of doing MR. And going to make more tea won't help either.

CRussel · 04-10-2015, 06:21 PM

Ah, that's better. A mug of Lion Mountain Keemun. I still have way too many pages to write before I can quit for the day, but at least I have some excellent tea to help.

Ice water after my walk .... an Ardbeg slushie planned for later on ...
