On the 11th day of Christmas I give many thanks to Sil for sending us this particular tea. Well, here we are Christmas Eve and I’m still waiting on packages to arrive (before the hubbins gets home) to wrap. But Amazon assures me they will arrive today…fingers crossed! So I got up when I normally would for work knowing I had wrapping and cooking in my future.
We’re going to my hubbins “Aunt’s” house for dinner and she never has anything gluten free for me to eat. So I made up a cup of this tea (in a new hot pink mug from our friend’s daughter) and then I got down to making some gluten free turkey meatballs and sauce. (Which smell/taste awesome.) This tea had a nice smokey kick to it…this must have been the tea I was smelling when I thought it was Day 9! Oddly enough I also enjoy a good single malt whisky and this is just wow. I see where the comparison comes in!
Sorry this review is all over the map…I think I’ve had too much of this tea this morning! :)

Well at least two of us enjoy this so far…i consider that a rousing success even if no one else does. It’s smoother and more interesting than i thought it would be lol
well worse case scenario we may be able to do a swap in the new year and i can just go buy some for you.
ooh.. yea! drive to toronto! we can meet up… there’s a february tea convention thingy lol

YAY! that’d be so much fun, if you made it up here :D
Btw, what does magot mean? I’m curious, sounds like a fun word!
That was totally a typo on my part! Thanks for catching it!! Should have read (and now does)“then I got to making” ooopsie!
This is the first year. We aren’t sure how big it will be just yet but there are tons of tea companies in the city.
The guy who heads the Tea Guild also teaches the sommelier program at George Brown so he knows alot of people.
