Oh, I forgot in my earlier post-- I'm a little irritated with Scott. While I've been unable to get into the kitchen, he's been using up my Stash black tea samples, the ones that are single bags of each kind. There were ten, and there were only four left when I went looking for them yesterday. Scott has apologized. He apparently assumed that they were an extra I'd gotten with my order and didn't want. I have no idea why he'd think that. I have a habit of seeking out sample packs of tea so that I can try a cup or two of a lot of different things. It's not a new thing.
Scott did say that he's completely not interested in any of the teas that I bought in full boxes. That's a pity because, at least one kind, I bought entirely because I thought he'd like it, because it was like something else he enjoyed before. Admittedly, that's an herbal tea, and Scott's drinking a lot of black tea these days. (He's substituting unsweetened black tea for artificially sweetened Coca-cola.)
I guess I'm going to have to order that sampler again. It wasn't very expensive, but shipping was higher than I'd like, so I don't want to order it until I'm ready to order a good bit more tea, and I don't expect that to happen for a very long time (probably at least a year, maybe two or three years. I bought a lot of tea).
I did try one of the remaining samples yesterday-- Stash's double spice chai black tea. I drank it unsweetened and quite enjoyed it. I steeped it just shy of three minutes, and that was quite enough for good flavor. I think this is one to buy again. That makes two winning black teas out of those I bought (the other is the white chocolate mocha black tea).
