I love teas, and these descriptions really do remind me of the teas that she's talking about! there's a wonderful tea store where I live that gives out samples and they allow you the smell the tea before buying, and it really is fascinating how different every tea tastes!
I want to get into tea but ive been a soda guzzler all my life so i thought maybe darjeeling 3rd flush would suit me after reading about it here but gosh my tongue is too spoiled and darjeeling loose leaf is so expensive too. Tastes good with a lot of honey though (´• ω •`)
I end up liking most of the teas i read about in here though so one miss isn't too bad.
Assam tea is really good! Try it with milk and cocoa if you haven't! Thats my favorite way to drink it.
considering how tea culture isn't as developed, it must sound like she's make it up or using the "exact words" to describe it. like some sort of rhetoric genius
