Oooooh vanilla! When I opened the sample packet the smell was a mix of citrusy and a creamy-sweet smell that made me think of melted ice cream and creamy caramel – can I eat these leaves? ;)
The taste is nice, the bergamot sort of pushing the cream out of the way to take center stage. It’s isn’t too pungent, which is a problem with Adagio’s Earl Grey Bravo, and it has a clean citrusy flavour with a touch of spiciness. On its heels follows the cream flavour which is a bit muted but it gives a sweet, vanilla accent to the tea.

*nods * I’m looking forward to experimenting with this one. I was a bit annoyed that SpecialTea’s sample packets aren’t resealable, though.
One of my favorite teas :)

Yeah, I stole a bunch of binder clips from work and used them to reseal, haha.
That’s pretty much what I ended up doing too.
