Advent Calendar 2024 – Day 5
Sigh, Simpson & Vail, why you gotta include such boring teas? Am I the only one who doesn’t like it when companies have super basic teas in their advents? Like, at least have the French vanilla chai instead. Anyway… At least it’s early in the advent I guess.
This is fine. I am personally not a fan of chai with spice flavoring. If it’s a chai with other added flavors, like vanilla or fruit or something, that’s fine. But to me, if you need to add spice flavoring in addition to the actual spices, you’re doing something wrong lol. It just makes it taste like something else other than chai, I guess. I like that this has anise seed in it, and I’m getting a nice anise flavor, but not a fan of all the added flavorings (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove).
For jam, today I have Purple Fig-Cinnamon Spread. I love fig, so naturally I adore this one ha ha. So rich with the right amount of sweetness and big chunks of fig. The cinnamon is actually fairly subtle, so the fig still gets to shine! :)
(originally posted under their normal Chai, but noticed after reading the ingredients listed on the advent that this was actually their Organic Chai.)

Every year, AC Perch has the same enormous amount of the most boring tea ever for Day 24 and it always drove me insane XD.
Oh no, ha ha ha… I thought about getting theirs this year, but went cheaper instead.
Yeah, I wasn’t too enthused when I discovered this one today! Boring!
Well I’m glad it’s not just me! XD
Harney and Sons puts the most ridiculous choices in their advent! Stupid regular teas that are best sellers while leaving out the many wonderful seasonal options they have! White Christmas, Holiday, the Williamsburg line, so many they could have chosen!
I remember thinking the same thing when I saw the Harney advent! And the T2 one as well, to a lesser degree. They both have so many more interesting teas!
