Mmmm. Creamy vanilla nutty goodness. I don’t like eggnog, but I do like this tea. The vanilla and pecan are well balanced in the first steep. The nuttiness really takes center stage in the second steep (190F, untimed). Stacy, does this tea share a flavoring with the pistachio ice cream? The nutty aspect of this tea seems really similar to that one. More pecan than pistachio, but the same undertones. This is definitely a good winter tea!

EDIT: Reading other people’s notes, it seems that I’m the only one picking up vanilla here… maybe I’m confusing vanilla and eggnog?

There’s definitely some vanilla in that eggnog :D

This one doesn’t share any of the same flavorings as the Pistachio Ice Cream but it does have a fair amount of the same base tea.

Huh! Well that says a lot about the excellent choice and balance of base tea then :)
