There are times when I stumble over things that are absolutely sublime.
Ladies, gentlemen, other: I present to you cassia wine:
Newly-acquired bottle of cassia wine
It's so sweet it should be cloying, but ... isn't. It's fruity and has a distinct note of peach to it.
Related is this tea:
Yiwu pu'er raw tea
The round one peeking out of the basket, that is, and not the slab-shaped one barely visible. That is a raw pu'er tea from Yiwu, made in 2005. The reason why it's related? It, too, has an oddly fruity note to its aroma when brewed properly. This tea is a perfect complement to the cassia wine.
Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't also show the way I use to prepare that tea when I want to do it correctly while outside of my home:
Portable near-"kung fu" tea set
The pen is there for scale, but basically the cups are 50ml in size. (A normal tea mug is closer to about 250ml.) While not brewing tea quite as good as a proper "kung fu" set, it comes very close and is much easier to carry around. (It even comes with a lovely case, not shown, for convenience.)
