From BrewTEAlly Sweet! thanks so much! I’m so happy I was able to try this one, as it is exactly as I imagined it when I saw its existence years ago! SO SO good. The dry leaves actually smell like just baked cinnamon bread. The flavor is amazingly also like cinnamon bread. The pu-erh and black tea combination is perfect! This might be the only combined pu-erh/black tea in my possession right now. The only way this doesn’t taste like liquefied cinnamon bread is the hint of pu-erh flavor, but the pu-erh probably gives it that bready flavor. The cinnamon is the sugary sweet kind, so it’s like cinnamon sugar toast from my childhood! And there is definite BUTTERY flavor. The only addition I could think of is some raisins to make it raisin toast…but I suppose I could add some to the infuser myself. I can’t say enough for this blend. It’s a masterpiece. I want to try EVERYTHING from sTEAp Shoppe! I’m thankful this made my morning nicer.. it’s the perfect breakfast tea. Is winter over yet? As I was sipping this, I was wishing to be somewhere that wasn’t winter.. at a nice diner outside eating a lovely breakfast (waffles, hash browns, fruit salad?)… maybe even on the ocean but that would be asking too much! But this tea was a nice replacement for that.
Steep #1// few minutes after boiling // 5 min
Steep #2// just boiled // 7 min
The Black and White from sTEAp Shoppe is really good too :)
And yeah, I’m SO OVER this winter thing…
Sounds yum!
Agreed this is amazing!!!
Resteeps very well
