From Fortnum & Mason

Adding pure, roughly torn peppermint leaves to gunpowder tea follows a traditional recipe that is still all the rage in the swankier bazaars of Fez and Casablanca. Delicate yet refreshing, it is ideal after dinner, served without milk.

Adventageddon Day 11 -Tea 4/4

Moroccan Mint isn’t super my thing, but it was still kind of nice to see a new flavour profile explored across my advents. Usually, by now, the presence of mint or candy cane is much higher. I had this one for breakfast paired with a bagel with today’s jam: apricot and lavendar, though you couldn’t taste the lavender. It was a pretty standard Moroccan Mint with just a bit of coarseness from the Gunpowder. Most interesting element was that the mint had a sweetness that lingered so prominently that for a split second I could have sworn there was added licorice root in this tea.

Fortnum & Mason Advent Day 11 (Sachet)

This is a duplicate listing. There is another listing with a few reviews that has an extra “R” in Moroccan. But I am also wondering if the blend has been changed.

I double steeped and combined as I often do, because a friend was over and I wanted her to get to try it, too. She is most fond of green and white teas and recently got hooked on Teecino after I sent her a sample, so she came today to give me some samples from her order!

She really loved this Moroccan Mint. I am much more fond of tea with more spearmint than peppermint. This one says it is 10% spearmint and 2% peppermint, so we can do the math and see that there must be 88% green tea. The description here on Steepster doesn’t mention spearmint, though.

The spearmint leads more in this blend than it has in any other Moroccan Mint I have tried, including one of my favorites, Moroccan Mint from Tin Roof Teas. If you like spearmint gum, here’s your tea. My friend was sufficiently smitten with this to ask me to order a tin of it for her next time I place a Fortnum & Mason order.
