Thanks to Cameron for another great tea!
Okay, okay, okay. This one definitely has a fresh-from-the-oven carrot cake scent. My mom makes the best carrot cake. It’s one of her famous dishes in our family, so I’ve been a bit spoiled with amazing carrot cake. All that to say that perhaps my expectations are too high for carrot cake teas.
Actually, this tea is pretty tasty. There’s a definite sweet cream cheese icing-like flavour that’s coming forward here while the tea is quite hot. There’s a cinnamon flavour mixed with subtle hints of carrot in the background as well. The cream cheese icing falls away as the tea cools. I’m quite happy with this tea overall and would definitely consider ordering it for our cupboard.
I need to reorder this one! Definitely a favorite from S&V.
I was really happy with it too!
Hmm I don’t remember being impressed with this one, I’ll have to try it again. :)
It definitely became more cinnamon forward as it cooled (I noticed mention of cinnamon in your note). :)
