In the interests of disclosure, I must admit to drinking tea.
Yes, I've had my fling with darjeeling. I've scorned english breakfast and have continued associations with irish breakfast. I've made mint tea my foul weather friend along with lemon tea with honey. Then there is the continued lifesharing of chinese tea, type depending upon the circumstance.
In all this, I must say that I avoided with distaste what became a geek cliche of "Tea. Earl Grey. Hot." Because, well, I didn't like it.
I don't recall the reasons or the circumstances your honor, but at one point, I dabbled. I waved a bag of the Earl Grey at some water, called it tea and upon sipping I... was pleased.
So now, I enjoy the Earl of tea. But very very lightly steeped please.

Earl Grey is my favorite flava. Lady Grey is quite nice, too.

I shall try harder. To strive for more :D
Posted by: Hugin on Marzo 24, 2003 08:29 PMAs much as I love coffee, I will admit that tea is a favourite too. Earl Grey, Tisanes, Mint tea done the Moroccan way mind you and as of late Chai.

Hmm. Before I would have walked briskly by, but now I must consider the possibilities with interest.
