something I am grateful for today

I discovered Yorkshire Tea when we visited the UK a couple years ago, and lately I find I've been having it a lot again. <3

I have some of that in my cupboard right now! You can find it in Ontario sometimes.

Yeppir! That's where we got this current batch (I think? Pretty sure all the ones we brought back with us got drank by now...)

How is it different from other teas you've tried?

It has a kind of dark, mildly bitter undertone to it that sorta “enriches the bottom” of the taste.

At least to me. Sharon and Paisley (with more refined palates than I) both contend that Yorkshire is blended with English water in mind, and say that it tastes better when you make it over there. And similarly, Red Rose (perhaps Canada's best tea) is made for our water. Paisley brought some RR with her when she went to England and said that in their water it isn't as good. (shrug)
