Pu-erh tea.

It's by far the most dankest of teas on the market.

Once in a while I go to downtown Seattle at Pike Place Market and browse the tea shops there. No joke the entire area reminds me of a little Harry Potter town nestled within the city. Old buildings with that early 20th century smell, wooden walkways, and of course tea shops. And because it's such a hipster new age city it's sort of blends well with the city even though it's known for it's Starbucks coffee. Tea was meant to drink in cozy rainy weather. I'm gonna head up there this weekend.

I hope someday tea becomes more widely used here in the states. The only teas people are aware here is green tea and black tea. Literally that's it. Most of the time it's synthetically altered with lots of shit sugar served cold in a store bought bottle. Tea in my opinion should be served without added sugar or honey (at first at least) to truly get to experience the flavor. Or maybe i'm just a tea elitist, maybe i'm on a high horse thinking my way is superior or something, I don't know.

Coffee is still the drug of capitalism. I dream of a day where tea & coffee are equally consumed in this society. Where a tea shop is as common as Starbucks.
