October Sipdown Challenge – a tea that reminds you of a favorite place

This review will pretty much match my last.

I was unfamiliar with black currant flavor until I tried a sample of Harney’s about fourteen years ago. It was okay.

Fast forward to Derry, Northern Ireland about nine years ago and I am surprised to see that EVERYTHING is black currant flavored – children’s medicine, candy, drinks. It was the first time in my life going out of the country. It was a huge adventure for me and I loved it.

The fruity flavor of black currant will probably eternally remind me of that trip. I especially like this tea because of the base. The fruit shines instead of competing with fruity notes in the base. I also enjoy Nostalgia which is a little easier to get your hands on here.
