Always time for a cup of tea

mar just visited my site and reminded me that it was a good idea to pause a while and take a look around whilst sipping a nice cup of tea. Those that know me will know that like many Brits I enjoy my 'Breakfast tea' with milk, but that I am also partial to Lapsang Souchong, which is my tea of choice today. This is a unique black tea with a smoky aroma and distinctive, pungent flavour enhanced by smoking the tea in large baskets over pine chips. Even just sniffing the leaves is a great hit! (Wow - just done it!) A strong tea, big leaves and best taken with just water. Delicious and invigorating.
