How have I not had this tea before? This makes me think I need to explore more decaf black teas for evenings. I drink herbals because I want to sleep, but I’m not in love with most of them. The ceylon base is light and a little malty. The vanilla is soft and gentle. Yum! And I get to have black tea at night, which let’s be honest, is superior to the majority of tisanes.

Flavors: Malt, Vanilla

Well, mj, in my experience Vanilla Comoro is something of an exception to the rule that decaf flavored blacks are usually wan and insipid. So don’t get your hopes up too high! ;-)

Well, that’s disappointing but not totally unexpected. Have you come across any other good ones?

The only other one I can truly recommend so far is Numi Decaf Earl Grey. It is very good for decaf and also for a filter bag.

I agree with sherapop – this is pretty much the only good one I’ve found so far

Boo…the blergamot is not my friend. Thanks anyway for the recommendation though!

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
