Day 7/24 of the DAVID’s Tea advent calendar.
This one is supposed to just be Bubbie’s Baklava re-branded, which is absolutely what is it. Super happy about this because Bubbie’s Baklava was always one of my favourites (particularly as a latte, which is how I had it today). I do get more of a cooked apple vibe than I remember, but I don’t know if that’s an actual change in the tea or if this particular sample just had more apple or if I’m just not remembering properly. Whatever it is, it doesn’t take away from the tea. I’ll probably pick up a substantial quantity of this before it disappears (not that I need more tea right now…).
I do find it funny that this was the third tea from the winter collection in a row from the advent calendar. Last year they were more spread out.

The only thing different about this one is that they added pink peppercorns, and cranberry I think.
I didn’t detect the rose/walnut component from Bubbie’s Baklawa in this one. Or am I dreaming this up?
Michelle, that makes sense. I was looking at the peppercorns and wondering if they had been in Bubbie’s Baklava.
Evol Ving Ness, I definitely got a lot of walnut in this (though admittedly my small sample had two HUGE walnuts in it). Not so sure about the rose, though I feel all the milk for the latte would drown it out anyway.
