I forgot - I've also done gunpowder.

Speaking of oolong...

I received a sample of the #611 organic oolong from SpecialTeas the week
before last and there was a distinctly fishy aroma and flavor to it. Is that
weird or what? I'm wondering if they might have used fish fertilizer because
I can't see tea being grown or dried around fish.
