I believe this is a good time to admit I have never had tea. No really, I am quite serious. I think my mother gave me Chamomile once before when I had a cold but that was so many years ago I barely remember the taste.

I'm not a connoisseur of teas, I'm sure there are undoubtedly thousands of different kinds I have not tried. That being said, every type of tea I've tried thus far sucks massive cocks.

I've been told adding Honey to tea makes it suck less but I've never had the initiative to actually go out and buy tea.

Nononono, you're just not doing it right. Douglas Adams wrote an excellent primer.

You mean they are doing it wrong. Not me. I don't drink the stuff. I will take a look at that article though.

And also Chamomile tea isn't even tea. It's an herbal tea.

my favorite type of unsweetened tea is oolong. it's mild, tasty and can take multiple brewings.

There's a few different varieties of oolong that are in my top 10 teas. Iron Buddha is particularly delicious. Strong lilac overtones.

Ever tried any post-fermented teas? They're sort of an acquired tastes but I really do like some pu-erh or something once in a while.

**Linliel** · 2012-01-12 18:53

Oh yeah, I like pu-ehr, really threw me the first time I tried it though!

Since coming to the UK I've also discovered Nettle tea which is my new go-to for caffeine free pre-bedtime tea. Relaxing *and* delicious!

oh this is getting weird. i don't venture too far outside of jasmine tea, or maybe like an orange spice black tea. chai maybe. you're talking about things that are fermented.

my roommates in college were like that. "Would you like some *insert random food that should never be mixed with liquid* tea?"

me "DON"T YOU HAVE LIKE REGULAR OR GREEN TEA?"

"no"

"fuck you people"

**Rocl** · 2012-01-12 20:35
