Earthquake tea! When the tower of the hospital that I work in started visibly shaking this afternoon, we did not assume earthquake, but it turns out that’s what it was. Enough to make the building sway fairly significantly, but not enough to do any damage. Anyway, now it’s time for some tea. Another at-random selection from the ol’ bag of dark oolongs!
The aroma on this one is decidedly less roasty, though that is only in comparison to the previous one I had, which was incredibly roasty. I do believe there are some floral notes lurking behind the roasted oolong scent. They come out in the flavor too, but surprisingly this tea lacks a very distinct sweet note you might expect, though it is faintly there. It definitely has the roasted nutty taste as the main note, but I’m liking this one for it’s slight floral character.

I hope you’re okay after your earthquake scare. It never gets any less unsettling no matter how many I go through. I practically live on a fault line. I’m glad you had good tea to sooth your nerves.
Fortunately it was hardly anything up here… more of a novelty, and nothing even fell off the shelves! But it was definitely an odd, freaky feeling!
I agree I live in Upstate NY and a few seconds before it started my kitten started chirping and other two cats shot up from their naps and started racing around…then my chair felt like it was a rocking chair and not a desk chair…I did not make tea, but I should have as the feeling freaked me out a tad.
