16: Tea of the Year

(Source)

I can taste my favorite tea right now. What's yours?

There are really two teas that characterize 2009 for me--the first is the Fairmont Empress's inhi Victoria, BC, Centennial Blend. I actually first tried it in December 2008 (The Fairmont Empress's actual Centennial) but since I gave my roommate a small tin with bags for Christmas, we enjoyed it throughout my final few months in Vancouver.

Also, there was an apple/hibiscus blend of tea at the coffeeshop we would always mix into other teas. You could also eat the dried apples out of it... very fun.
