Hi all,
I'm new to this forum, but not to tea. I've been drinking tea seriously for the past 10 years, and am excited to find a place where I can discuss the finer point of camellia sinensis with you all.
I'm from the prairies of Canada so I know how important a good warm cup of tea is. I'm partial to true tea (white, green, oolong, and black), but also enjoy a nice cup of herbal in the evenings (especially Rooibos and Tibetan Wild Lavender).
I'd say my favourite tea would have to be TWO DOVES SILVER NEEDLE. It's smooth, deep and has a haunting, almost non existent, peach note. I brew it for 15 minutes at 70C.
So that's me. Again, I look forward to many discussion over the coming months and years.
Warmest Regards,
Robert Hanson
