No, It's Not Hashish Not long ago I picked up another great Qigong (Chi Kung) book, this one titled "Qigong- The art and science of Chinese energy healing" by Kenneth S. Cohen. Cohen presents a useful bridge between esoteric energy studies and modern science, but what caught my eye was his chapter on Tea. Now, I had quit coffee at least fifteen years ago, and have used common teas (Lipton, Red Rose, or Green) as well as herbs such as Dandelion, Milk Thistle and others, which are technically...

This blend of Early Grey is very mild as long as you don't over brew it. It has a very subtle taste and a great blend for those who enjoy white teas. However, if it's left to brew too long, the flavor can get a little bitter, so just watch how long the tea bag sits in the cup and you'll be sure to enjoy your cup of tea.
A great white tea that I recommend!

Review: I love green oolongs and I don’t often like ‘em flavored, as I think of oolongs as being flavorful enough on their own. But I have to admit that Yuzu Oolong from Cha Cha Tea is a mighty good tea indeed.
Yuzu is a Chinese grapefruit, and while I am normally not fond of grapefruit, the Yuzu flavoring in this tea is sweet and fruity enough... Read Full Story
