Interesting read - I'll give it a go.
It doesn't say whether the tea has to be just brewed hot or cooled down though...

Dionysus Long Jing Tea Whisky, 19% abv, is a product combining both tea and whisky, from Kittling Ridge distillery, aka Forty Creek, in Ontario. It is mostly exported to the Asian market. @whiskyjoe gave me a 375 of it.
Interesting? Yes, different, and quite interesting. At first it just seemed strange, and the tea rather understated. It did grow on me as I drank it. Great art? No, not great art. I can't say that it leaves me craving more tea whiskies. Would I try some more if offered? Sure. Different whiskies plus different teas=different beverages. There is much to explore.

I like Jameson in my tea when I'm ill. I imagine it helps the recovery! :)

I drink a lot of tea, I have a lot of whisky but I can't see me mixing them anytime soon. An interesting idea and I'd be interested to hear anyone's thoughts. Mmmm...tea!

"The exception is tea—not tea and wine, but tea and whisky. When blended, they can create a refreshing drink that manages to retain the integrity of both beverages. Green tea and blended whisky is popular in China—some say as popular as gin and tonic in England—but I’m talking about premium, handpicked tea and fine, single-malt Scotch whisky."
