Rachel Sincere drank Spiced Brandy Shou Mei by 52teas

103 tasting notes

I was afraid to open this and smell it because I thought it might be weird. Brandy spice tea? Am I ever glad I opened it! To me, it smells like eggnog. I love eggnog. When I prepared and drank it, I thought that it was a nice, smooth, spicy tea, but I didn’t taste any brandy. I loved it, though. I wanted another cup right away, which is unusual for me—I usually like to mix it up. Warning, if you have an aversion to licorice/anise, you will likely not enjoy this one.

I’m sad to hear the anise is so strong. Now I’m afraid to open & try mine…

I am so excited to hear that the anise is strong! (Sorry Janefan!) I love licorice and anise, and I sometimes get frustrated with teas that go wimpy with it, glad to hear that this one has some licorice-y taste.
