I’m on a weekend vacation and forgot to bring my tea and the international grocery didn’t have it, so I settled for Darjeeling. I can barely notice the difference. It’s so subtle that it might as well just be a different tea brand.

    It’s a shower thought, dude. Also, there’s no such thing as Big Tea as far as I know.

    Edit: I literally thought that in the shower and it amused me.

      There is however a Mr. T, and he would indeed pity the fool duped by a Darjeeling flim flam done in his name.

      I knew a guy who looked into starting a tea growing business in Nepal. He was simplifying, I’m sure, but his answer in the end was it’s all controlled by the tea mafia!

      The British empire has entered the chat (backed by a very heavily armed fleet of warships).
