It smells really lovely – in the bag and fully steeped – but oh how I wish apples weren’t the first ingredient. Like with Peanut Butter Cup in the fall, the apple pieces have completely overwhelmed the other ingredients. It’s nutty and the pistachio flavor is there but only just. The tea has a nice creamy quality and (thankfully) I don’t find that it’s as tooth-achingly sweet as Raspberry Cream Pie. Other folks have likened it to Toasted Walnut, and I can certainly understand why. It does have the same nutty, sweet, un-spiced flavor profile. I’m not blown away. I need more pistachio and less apple. I might give it a go as a latte another day and decide whether or not it’s something to add to my collection.
