Dominic. Former: Richmond, VA. Current: Brooklyn, NY. I run the Theme Garden and design at Tumblr. Life is pretty awesome.

Look how beautiful that is. While Darjeeling tea is usually considered a black tea, it’s actually closer to an Oolong. Notice how some of the tea leaves are still green? That’s because the tea isn’t <90% oxidized, meaning it’s not truly a black tea.

I’m such a tea nerd.
