Tea Forté

Today's mail included a tea pot design Get Well card from Linda J. in Kentucky with a packet of Tea Forté inside. 


I remembered reading Linda's March 22nd post about the tea on her blog, Friendship Tea.

The packet said it was a robust, organic, black Breakfast Tea, so I knew it would be perfect for helping to get my day started after my shower.

The packets are pre-measured loose tea to provide a 12 oz. cup of tea.


Doesn't this look like the perfect way to start a day?  This Assam tea from the Sewpur Estate  in Northeast, India, definitely is a full-bodied, malty, robust tea.


I normally don't use sugar or milk in my tea, but when I read the back of the packet it stated that milk and sugar complimented the tea.  So I added a small cube of rough cut brown sugar and a splash of 2% milk and it was deliciously smooth.  

You can read all about Tea Forté products at their website, Teaforte.com.

Thank you, Linda!

  2. A sweet and thoughtful gift! And you chose such a pretty teacup to compliment the tea!

    I visited a tea room in Arizona recently that used Tea Forte' sashets. My tea was delicious! I usually drink my tea black, except in tea rooms --- so I had mine with milk too.

    I hope you are continuing to feel better and better!

  3. What a thoughtful friend that knows just the right thing to send a tea lover. Just gauging from the photo I would say milk for sure would be nice in that tea. Take care and continuing getting well.
