Tea From Russia Came

[bill barilko]

Who knew that Tea was actually grown in Russia?

I sure didn't before I started poking around-it's quite the story and like many things Russian barely survived the fall of the Soviet Empire so given the decent price I decided to buy some real Krasnodar Tea online-here it is.

And the taste results?

I don't know about the flavour but it blasts out a masive shower of Beta Particles and Positrons.

A lovely smooth brew not too many tannins-Recommended.

Actually it's Don't Put Sugar in the Tea.

I'd like to get to Russia for tea some day. Is there a car ferry from Alaska to Siberia?

No but there are seasonal flights from Anchorage to Vladivostok or Seattle to Vladivostok it's not that far.

... and in recent years, they've stopped shooting down those airliners over Sakhalin Island

I was looking forward to camping in the ford and driving to Eurasia. I could have it shipped I suppose and meet it on the other side.

Why don't I google that?

About $5,000

It looks like dried up boogers to me. I'll stick with lipton sap.

This kind of ignorant garbage dumped on someone's thread is the reason this forum is such a wasteland.

I prefer Earl Grey or Yorkshire Tea.

Careful
turns out there are lbs of pesticides in the tea these days
best go organic, whole milk, and organic sugar too, if possible

"EXCLUSIVE

I'll check the local tea shops if they import it, thanks.

Of course you do.

I'm also partial to PG Tips and Typhoo.

Never heard of those I get the Lipton tea if it's on sale and if not I get the generic tea bags. Ones as good as the other tea is tea.

Lipton makes good onion soup too btw.

Actually it's Don't Put Sugar in the Tea.

I may put honey in my hot tea and If I don't have honey I'll damn sure throw some sugar in there with some half & half love it. In my iced tea I like plenty of sugar. I don't like anything but Lipton so I'm not sure what I'd add to those exotic teas that look like dried boogers. Probably a shot of tequila.

As far as coffee goes generic is as good as any a few roach wings ain't gonna hurt no one.
