From Tay Tea

Perfect for chilly days, this creamy Earl Grey blended with herbal rooibos has sweet notes of caramel.

This is reminiscent of a creamy earl grey, but has the added bonus of sweet caramel and honeyed rooibos notes. The black tea in the blend gives it some backbone and the hazelnut crème caramel keeps you sipping. Even when the cup is empty the flavours keep lingering.

Ingredients: Ceylon black tea, rooibos, hazelnut pieces, cornflowers, calendula petals, caramel

Wasn’t my favorite tea, but it certainly wasn’t bad. The floral notes are a little strong, bt overall I enjoyed it.

I love the smell of this dry…very nutty and caramel. It’s making me crave creme brûlée. Steeped, it has a prominent caramel and Rooibos aroma. I generally like Rooibos but something about this blend leaves a slight perfume taste that is hard to ignore. I might have to try steeping it again…
