This tea was much too weak for my tastes. I’m not sure if it’s because I used to be a heavy coffee drinker in addition to tea. Therefore, perhaps I expected the rich hazelnut and vanilla flavours that often accompany coffee. In any case, this tea barely had any flavour at all. I could taste the basic slightly astringent black base with a wee bit of a vanilla highlight. I would characterize it as a shadow of vanilla. Not creamy, & no hazelnut flavour or aroma either. It wasn’t a bad tea, but it wasn’t a good tea either. I have had several other teas from this company that were so much better. So sadly, this one was a disappointment.
Flavors: Astringent, Vanilla
Oh sad!
I ordered 7 different teas from Sunshine Cottage and this was 1 of only 2 that I didn’t care for. Not too bad I think! Plus Joan (the seller) is awesome. My favorite was the plum pudding, YUM!
Awesome. That was the one I had high hopes for!
