Thanks so much to carol who for her generous sample of this tea! I was really looking forward to tasting this one (I’ve been curious about Harney & Sons teas in general). Unfortunately, the first time I tried it, I must have overstepped my cup, because it was pretty dry—and I couldn’t seem to taste the vanilla. This time, I steeped it for three minutes instead of four, and WOW. This is absolutely heavenly! To me, it smells exactly like a toasted marshmallow, all creamy and sugary and delicious.
And it tastes delicious too! No dryness this time, just nice smooth black tea (with a subtle fruit note, maybe berry?) and cozy vanilla sweetness. Now I know why everyone raves about this one! I’m definitely going to have to order more. And it’s decaf, which just makes it that much better. Thanks again to carol who for giving me the chance to sample it!
