Today’s cup is an Assam Tea from Hampstead Tea.
This Assam brews a strong, vibrant and malty beverage. The aroma is light, slightly airy and clearly astringent. The flavor is leafy, malty and similar to the breakfast teas based off the tea grown in the Assam region of India. The liquor is super dark rustic red.

Today’s cup is an herbal from Stash Tea called Sandman PM.
Until recently I haven’t normally been drinking an herbal tea first thing in the morning. I often need more of a pick-me-up. However, this Sandman PM has been eying me for a while. At least I sure feel like I could use a visit from the sandman today.
The brew is rather light. The most dominant aroma and flavor is chamomile. The liquor is a pleasant golden color.

When I went to Disney World the last thing I was thinking of was tea. But lo-and-behold, there it was! Staring me in the face at the Epcot gift store I was in! Of the two teas I saw that were loose leaf, I bought both! My first review is of this Topsy Turvy Tea Blend.
