A number of years ago, on a whim, I emailed a local purveyor of loose-leaf teas, Oregon Coffee & Tea, asking them to put a flight of teas together for me. I asked for five teas I could drink over the workweek that made an interesting grouping. They more than came through. I’m on my third series of five teas. I’ve been enjoying teas I probably never would have tried before, had wonderful experiences as the flights unfolded, and helped refine my sense of taste.
Along with the tea, they’ve included brief descriptions on their origin, processing, and tastes. I took the last one and made into a small booklet that sits well on my desk so I can refer to it while sipping – as well as make my own notes.
