Tea: Toasted Rice

Hello again, friends! Sadly, I have not been reading as much as I should. For some reason I can only get through a few pages a day. I am making a summer reading goal of at least 10 books though, So I do hope to at least be able to do that, that way I can get much more book reviews posted! I'd eventually like to start up reviewing books for NetGalley again. We'll see how it goes. I just don't like getting inundated with books to review that I don't feel like reading at the time. Sooooo, I'll probably only request to review like 5 books at a time (knowing I likely won't be approved for all those) and only ones I really really want to read. That way I don't get overwhelmed.

So, in another news... tea!!! Who doesn't love tea, right? This tea that I'm reviewing today is one sent to me from my penpal in California, Amanda (yes, we share a name and will be the same age until her birthday on June 2nd). I don't play favorites, but... lol. So this tea is by the brand Numi, which I know I've seen before, but can't quite place where. I know some local grocery stores sell it, since I wouldn't have shopped anywhere else.

So, this flavor is Toasted Rice... and let me tell you, it's toasty alright! This is a green tea and it's flavor is definitely unique, I've never had green tea that tasted burnt before. I don't mean that in a bad way, it just tastes like it was cooked over a campfire. Very, very toasty... which is a flavor I happen to actually like. I really don't have a lot to say about the flavor because all I tasted was toastiness. I think this would be good especially when it's cold outside. I will look for this brand and flavor when I do my grocery shopping next week.

Thanks to my dear penpal, Amanda, for sending this one to me!
