“Hands down my favorite tea. Smells like marzipan. Light and a tiny bit sweet. Doesn’t need milk or sugar, but holds either nicely. Enjoyable any time of day” Read full tasting note
A smooth almond and pistachio black tea perfect for the chilly mornings to come! A balanced black tea with a sweet finish. The unmistakable taste of pistachio is followed by the sweet taste of your favorite almond cookie.
I received a free sample of this blend with my recent purchase at Fava and was excited to discover that it’s a dead ringer for TeaSource’s Pistachio Shortbread, which has unfortunately been out of stock for months. Like that one, this blend tastes more of marzipan than pistachio, but it has a nice buttery smoothness that definitely reminds me of shortbread. A lovely dessert-like treat!
Flavors: Almond, Butter, Marzipan, Smooth, Sweet
Another SipsBy offering for the month of January. I was surprised to see another pistachio tea from Fava in my box so soon, but I love pistachio, so can’t complain. This tea has loads of ingredients that I love (marzipan drops and almonds in particular), but there was just something off about this blend. It’s not nearly as bad as the other Fava pistachio blend that I tried, but I’m still not loving it. It’s missing that marzipan favor, and is instead reading as a bag of mixed nuts.
What I smell: marzipan (strong)
What I taste: pistachio butter
Notes: This tea reminds me of the almond-paste-filled Danish Kringle pastry that’s occasionally available at Trader Joe’s. Fairly light, but in a pleasant way. Might try steeping a minute longer next time. Found via Sips by subscription box.
Yum! I’ve always wanted to do an order from Fava and it all started from a Pumpkin tea I had many years ago. I’ll have to add this one to my wishlist.
This is my local tea shop and I definitely recommend them! While there have been a few misses here and there, almost everything I’ve ever tried from them has been delicious, high quality, and reasonably priced.
