Mount Kenya from Mark T Wendell is sturdy, honest, and unapologetically bold. Earthy, malty, lightly citrusy, with a brisk edge and woody finish. Full bodied, clean, and energizing.

The Whistling Kettle
As a CTC black tea into is smooth, clean, and easy to drink with no harsh edges. That said, the malty depth in an Irish Breakfast feels muted. A solid, no fuss decaf option, just more reserved than bold.

A stout, comforting decaf black tea with floral lift, gentle malt, and a soft honeyed warmth. Enjoyed this one on National Hot Tea Day. Proof that decaf can still feel like a proper cup. ☕️

I woke up in a puerh frame of mind and reached for Red Velvet Chocolate Puerh from Plum Deluxe.
Deep, earthy puerh softened by cocoa warmth and a whisper of dessert like comfort. It’s rich without being heavy, cozy without being cloying.
So what’s in your cup today?

Elegant citrus aroma, lightly floral, balanced by a solid black tea base. Brewed smooth, lightly astringent, and refined. A comforting cup to keep on hand

Decaf isn’t thin by default. The difference lies in what happens to the leaf before it ever reaches your mug. Understanding the process changes everything.

Decaf done right. Full bodied, grounding, and rich with the malty notes so many decafs lose. Nothing thin or hollow here, just a proper cup of black tea. Proof that decaf does not have to feel diminished.

Behind every cup are smugglers, empires, monks, warriors, accidents, and rebellion. Leaves that crossed oceans, sparked wars, and shaped cultures now rest calmly in our mugs.
You’re tasting centuries in a single sip.

Graceful, not perfumed for effect. Hand rolled green tea pearls scented naturally with fresh jasmine offer a light, floral cup with gentle sweetness and a smooth, lingering finish.

Some teas whisper rather than speak. This one does exactly that. Softly scented with pearl orchid using traditional methods, it offers clarity, balance, and quiet elegance rather than perfume or intensity.

A rediscovered favorite from my stash and a perfect fit for decaf season. Warm vanilla, soft apple, and a naturally creamy, pillowy mouthfeel from marshmallow root. Cozy, gentle, and never cloying. Comfort in a cup.

New Year’s Eve doesn’t have to be loud. Tea invites a softer pause between what was and what’s coming. Release the old with one cup, welcome the new with another, and let intention replace resolution.
Gentle beginnings count.

Bold black tea first, vanilla second. Smooth, restrained, and surprisingly full for a decaf. A splash of vanilla cream rounds it beautifully. Still missing the malt I crave, but one of the better decafs.

A warming cup to welcome the return of the light. Strong black tea, honey or maple, a splash of citrus, and a pinch of cinnamon.
Grounding, gently bright, and perfect by candlelight. Set an intention as you stir.

Not usually an oolong fan due to heavy roast, but this one won me over. Smooth, buttery Jade Tung Ting oolong with soft grassy notes, gentle nuttiness, and a hint of cinnamon warmth. No roast, multiple steeps.
