I bought this tea mainly because the smell of it was very familiar. Later I realized that the smell reminded me of a type of cookie I used to eat in Holland, a “bitterkoekje” to be precise, much like the Italian amaretto cookie, but better. Now, every time I have a cup of this tea, or simply get a whiff of it, I crave these cookies.
The smell is a very good indication of the flavour, meaning you can really taste the almond-ness of it. There’s also a hint of cherry, which is a nice touch I find. Maybe it’s because this tea bring back fond memories of my childhood, but I really enjoy drinking it and as of now have only about one teaspoon remaining.
