When cold air dries your nose the perfect tea is Liu An. It also called “basket tea” as the compressed cakes are stored in bamboo baskets. This gives it a richness and a touch of the same mouthfeel as after a cough drop. The aroma is floral and a little earthy— there is something about it like honey. Today I’m enjoying some of my 2014 stash— it has grown perfectly mellow and I will have my husband and the role playing club try it too! #teaculture #tea #teaPosting #liuAn

Basket tea at the parent's house. Dicing veggies for the turkey dressing. @tea

Really not in the mood and quite pissed off in general today, but that's another story.

Brewing heicha to get that tea soup in order to get distracted.

"Dark Medicine" - aged #LiuAn #HeiCha - traditional post-fermented (in bamboo baskets) tea of Lu'An, Anhoi, PRC ['03-04, TTPL] via thetea.pl. I don't get those vendors who totally hide their out of stock teas, making it harder to reference.
