Tea Tuesday: 9

I'm not really a coffee person. I prefer tea, and I know a lot of fellow writers love tea, too. But have you ever wanted to break out of the Early Grey or English Breakfast norm and try something new? Well, let me help you find some cool new teas! If you need a little hot and flavorful boost to help you reach your writing goal or you're just a lover of tea or you'd like to try some tea but aren't fond of the stereotypical types, these Tea Tuesday posts are for you.

This weeks tea is ... 

*drum roll*

9

How I found it: I found this tea on the Adagio tea website while browsing through their many fandom blends. This is same tea company I got the Avatar: The Last Airbender set that includes Aang, Katara, and more, BBC Sherlock teas that includes Sherlock Holmes (of course ;) ), John Watson, and more, and Tales and Tea Leaves (a Hobbit/Lord of the Rings set) that includes Barrels of Tea, Elevenses, and more. This tea is a part of the Doctor Who set which includes 9, 10, 11, River Song, Amy Pond and Rory Williams-Pond. All of the flavors are wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey!

The Tea: This tea has a strong taste with the Gunpowder, Irish Breakfast and chestnut teas with a spicy twist from the aniseed seed and cinnamon bits. It reminds me a little of the Lestrade tea, but I like this one better. It definitely has that rough, war-like feel of the ninth doctor, but with his hint of quirkiness. I think he'd definitely drink this tea.

Serving Recommendations: I steeped this tea for three minutes and put cream and sugar in it. 

How much is it and where can you get it? You can find this tea at the Adagio website. I bought this tea in a sample set which was about $22 including shipping and you get a goodly amount of tea since you only need about a teaspoon per cup. Some of these teas you can buy individually for about $10 a pouch or $4 for a sample tin.

So how good is it? I really enjoyed this tea. I wasn't sure about it at first, but it is unique, reflects the character and it's fantastic. ^ ^

Have you tried this tea? What did you think of it? Have you seen Doctor Who? Who's your favorite character?
