I've always been kind of meh about pu'er tea, but lately I've been getting into it. Either my taste has evolved or the tea I brought back from China over a decade ago has evolved. #tea

"Legacy Of Hope"
Teableau for 01/19/26
It feels awkward to speak of hope these days, but I won't demean his memory by considering anything less. Hope does not preclude struggle, resistance, or self- defense, but rather, underpins them all.

Happy Monday from Monday! I hope it’s off to a great start! :bunhdheart:
Today’s reminder is to cover your own personal basics: food, water, rest, medication if you need it, and joy! (Yep joy counts, it helps keep the days going!) Could you use a nice break with some soup, or time to read after work? Get what you need to rock the week! :abunhdhappy:
Today’s tea is Earl Grey, my favorite streaming cuppa! What are you brewing up? :blobfoxflooftea:
2018 Hei Zhuan Black Brick Heicha from MyTeaPal club. This is a type of compressed Anhua Heicha that is not inoculated with "Golden Flowers" (Eurotium cristatum). Slightly smoky, very similar flavor to a rustic raw puerh. Lots of stems in the tea. Still figuring out how to brew this super densely compressed tea. Definitely Heicha for Raw Puerh drinkers!
I've started the Lemmy board "Tea and Study", a space to drink tea and know things :Blobhaj:

During bilateral meetings with his counterparts from European Union member countries in Berlin, agriculture minister Norikazu Suzuki expressed concerns about new packaging regulations the EU is to introduce. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/19/japan/politics/japan-eu-packaging-concern/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #politics #eujapanrelations #norikazusuzuki #agriculture #rice #tea
It's only time for a cuppa #tea
That may not be you thing.
And that's fine.
More tea for me
Have you tried mixing both black tea and green tea? I did. It tastes a little sweeter — like black tea, dark, but more sweet. I don't know how to explain.

Last day in #Vilnius this trip. Gonna head to CUP #shopping centre. Was ordered to bring some #tobacco to my @outola colleague. It's wildly cheaper here than in #Finland.
Noticed that Skonis ir kvapas (the place selling tobacco there) is actually a #tea and #coffee store. So maybe I can get something for me too… (... and @manna?)
Slightly off the route to the airport tho. If you have better ideas about where to go hunt bags of cheap shag tobacco, lemme know, #mamutai!
"Magic Jungle"
Teableau for 01/18/26
The cup and saucer pattern is called Magic Jungle, by Sakura, and it's from 1995.

I had a smoky rose #tea - a combination I had no idea I would like until I bought the Adagio fandom Sebastian (Stardew Valley) blend on a fangirling whim a few years ago. Now it's a favorite.
Staying with an Internet friend of 15 years, meeting in person for the first time. We went out to #tea today.
#Yerba arrived, and some differences in #brewing instructions 😂
Original: nutritional values are for 50g per 200ml of water (at least somewhat implying that's what you'll use). Fill container in 2/3-3/4, pour 1/4 of cold water, let it sit for 2 minutes, then pour 3/4 of 80°C water.
German sticker: use 12g for 1L of 90°C water.
Good afternoon friends. Love the way the steam catches the light.
May your days be steeped in mystery.
