Made this one last night!
I have to say that this is probably my favourite Caleb-inspired Critical Role/Fandom blend I’ve come across. With a simple ingredient list it so clearly mirrors his background story and fire motif, and the luster dust is a beautiful extra trust for this beloved dirt wizard.
The taste was as expected in some ways – a hint of earthy ginger and a beautiful crawling back of the throat heat from the chili. Overall, it was sweeter than anticipated but that’s really on me for forgetting that there’s licorice root in the blend. In the future I’d probably just steep for a shorter period of time and I think that would reduce that note in a way that would be more pleasant for my own tastes.
