Alright, looking at it, it sounds pretentious. I'll give you that. I haven't had a day to chill and enjoy some tea. I had today off and I wanted to drink some of my nice tea and look though my new cook book. There where no other tea general discussion threads up, so I made one where other people can talk and post what they are having. I don't see how this thread is so horrible compared to ""do Americans"" and the multiple little Cesar threads. Lurk somewhere else, make a food thread for discussion or fuck off.

Oh, ok. I thought you are because I saw a lot of vietnamese people preparing the tea like that so it has very strong and bitter taste.

Well, fair enough. I sometimes buy the same teas but fresh harvests every year but the difference isn’t really noticable even if you compare them side by side. And since I had lots of different kinds already I just sometimes want to drink specific kind because I feel like it’s going to suit the day or my mood.

Chrysanthemum is in baked goods? That's news to me. What kind of baked goods? Not sure how to describe it, but it's a kind of earthy mellow and floral and slightly sweet taste. It's my favourite tea. I'm drinking it right now.

I bought it on Amazon, because I'm too lazy to go out to a store to find it. There aren't many asian groceries near me.
