3 Tasting Notes

100

I’m addicted. I’m throwing my hands up into the air in acceptance and jubilation for this tea is perfection in a cup. The lavender is blended SO perfectly with the bergamot and black tea that my mouth is on a stairway to heaven every time I drink it. I don’t add any milk or sugar or anything. It is absolutely perfect the way that it is. I enjoy drinking it with one of my freshly-made butter croissants or raspberry jelly donuts as I feel like those pastries really compliment the simple yet luxurious notes of this blend.

Flavors: Bergamot, Berries, Honey, Lavender

I LOVED my first cup of this tea. I was thrilled! Finally — a chocolate tea I was thrilled about…and then I made myself another cup another day. It was awful. I thought I did something wrong. Where was the tiramisu flavor I so thoroughly delved into and swam through? Where was the delicious chocolate and coffee?! WHERE?! WHAT HAD I DONE TO MAKE THE FIRST CUP SO GLORIOUS?! Alas, I could not replicate the first cup’s heavenly flavor and aroma. This tea is awful and depressing. I stuck a sticky note on it that read “FREE!!!!” on my condo’s entry hall table and some poor soul took it. Maybe they had better luck?

Upon first inhale, this tea’s aroma reminded me of a heavily malted brown ale. This was slightly off-putting as it was an aroma I did not associate with tea. However, I had finally spotted the ever-elusive American Breakfast at my local market and I was willing to take the dive.
I am SO glad that I did. It’s smoky and smooth upon first tasting and it finishes cleanly with a sweet note. I’m not sensitive to caffeine (coffee addict, ahoy!), so I’m unsure how much this cuppa’s content will effect me. Either way, it’s a solid and satisfying cup that I intend to linger over every morning.
