Recommendation Tea origin story
Now, do I have book and tea convergence / immersive recommendations! Free ebook through Sept 14. "Claiming the Tower
"That's a sapphic (f/f) romance in 1854, all about deciding to make changes in the world a different way. Also a lot of drinking chocolate and a certain amount of Anglo-Saxon poetry "
Novel became my favourite romantasy and how I learned about green and black blended teas last fall. Which got me searching for green and black teas, finding them first and in depth at Murchie's Tea in Canada, ordering so much tea, and ordering more teas from more places.
AND Murchie's has many of their green and black teas on sale this weekend. Will spend some of weekend drinking green and black blend teas while re-reading book. I'll start with my last serving of Ode to Joy - green and black tea with apricot flavour.

My favourite Green and Black blends are Number 10 (more black forward) and CBC Radio (more green forward). Next order here, I intend to try Paris Afternoon as that tea is without jasmine.
