From Cameron B! Thanks very much! I think it’s the last of these cute little Moomin teabags. This is vanilla and pear on a black tea base. Definitely something I should like. The black tea is rich enough for such a small amount of leaf here. The vanilla pear almost reminds me of Harney’s Paris flavoring. I have to remind myself that this isn’t Harney’s Paris as I’m sipping. But then there is a lingering flavor of earthy pear skin. The second steep was also flavorful — but mostly sweet. A quite enjoyable little teabag!
Steep #1 // 22 minutes after boiling // 1 minute – 1 1/2 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 3 min
Luckily, my foil wrapped tea bag wasn’t cardboardy, so I assume it is an error of Nordqvist advent calendar.

Anyway, honestly it surprised me it is a black tea, because I haven’t paid enough attention to it. And it was very sweet when dry, when brewed… it was quite floral (as pears can be), quite creamy and vanilla for sure. The pear flavour itself, not the florality; isn’t much present. Which is a shame, as it could be much better, if that fruit flavour would be much more distinctive. Sadly, this way it is black tea with floral notes and creamy vanilla for me

The very last cardboard tea!
A shame because this one is meant to be pear and vanilla, which sounds delicious to me. I’m getting a hint of something sweet, but mostly just cardboard and wood.
Ah well, there are some lovely samplers of Moomin wrapped sachets on their way to me from Finland as we speak. Hopefully those are much more enjoyable!
Flavors: Cardboard, Sweet, Wood
