Finally, a Palais de Thes with a bit of flavour. The green tea base is watery and thin, but I can detect vanilla and a whiff of almond. The aroma reminds me of a vanilla-scented skincare product- hand cream, perhaps? I get a floral hint which is supposed to be rose but is not strong enough to be distinguishable as such.
Overall, a weak and thin cup but I’m just delighted I actually got Palais des Thes to present a recognizable flavour. I never considered myself to be a particular fan of bracing tea, but perhaps I am. This brand consistently makes me wonder if I’d been sleepwalking and I’m actually just drinking the third steep of the morning, totally unaware. Alas, no. This is first steep so I just have to class it as sad, watery tea.
Flavors: Almond, Floral, Vanilla

A friend just brought the rooibos version of this. I am not a fan of red rooibos but it was actually pretty good. The rooibos was very woody and less Robitusson-y than some.
Oh, that’s good. I generally avoid the red for the same reasons, but I can appreciate a more woody blend. The red is such a gamble, I usually steer well clear!
