I found this hiding in the back of the cupboard when I was organizing last night, and I’m nearly out! Good thing CrowKettle and I are planning to go to Bayswater soon! :) (Anyone have any requests?)

Anyways, it was as delicious as always. Burnt sugar, sweet nougat. These teas go together SO well.

Preparation
195 °F / 90 °C 3 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

Are these teas pricy? I’ve wanted to try the divine temptation! I wasn’t a fan of the creme brûlée so much though

I would love to try samples of these two and possibly Maple Taffy if I have anything you want to swap for! :)

OMGsrsly

They are very inexpensive. I think $4.50/50g? Something like that. There’s a website, but it’s not updated at all.

cameron – i can send you maple taffy. DT and CB that i had are going to RS though.. unless i check and there’s enough..

Dinosara

Hmmm I am tempted to request some Divine Temptation. Anything you want from Mariage Frères, since I will be near a store soon? Or TeeGschwendner? I would offer Theodor or Fauchon but I’m not sure what I will find from them.

OMGsrsly

I can totally get some, Dinosara! How much would you like? And of course I’d love to try stuff, but you don’t need to get anything specific for me – samples would be fine. Unless TeaG has the strawberry honeybush in stock, then I could go for a bunch of that. Yum yum yum.

OMGsrsly

Cool Sil, thanks for offering the maple taffy. I can send you the other two though, Cameron B! Definitely buying more of each. And whatshesaid, I can get you some divine temptation or just send you a sample. Your choice. :)

Dinosara

Awesome, I guess I would go with 50g of it. I will try to look for the strawberry honeybush at TeaG, but otherwise we can arrange something when I get back. If you’d rather me reimburse you for the tea and shipping just let me know and I will be happy to do so! Thanks!!

OMGsrsly

Oh, that’s fine. :) I picked up 100g extra today so I’ll send 50g to you and put the other 50g aside for a Christmas present! I’ll try to get it out to you this week, and just so you’re forewarned, I’ll probably put it in a freezer baggie with the actual packaging folded flat, just so it’ll fit into a bubble envelope.

Dinosara

Oh actually can you wait to send it out? I’ll be in Europe until Nov 15 so it’s probably best if the tea doesn’t sit around here. The packaging is fine. And I think you might not have my new address, so I will PM you. Thanks so much! :D

OMGsrsly

Ok, no problem. :) I’ll add a few samples of new stuff as well.

Dinosara you’re so lucky to be visiting a MF!!

OMGsrsly

whatshesaid, I almost asked Dinosara for “a little of everything please,” but that might not work out so well. :D

Sil

i’m always so jealous when dinosara goes to europe.. sigh

Dinosara

LOL you guys. I wish European tea sellers would sell in less than 100g amounts, then I really would get a little bit of everying. I am actually most excited to find a reseller for Theodor in Brussels.

Sil

the du loup….oh how i miss you..

OMGsrsly

Oh hey! That’s the one thTs been on my list for ages. :)
