This is still pretty pine-y, but mostly it’s sweet, bright kiwi with hints of lemon and melon. I’m actually liking it even more today than I did last time, even though I did let it sit a little too long and now it’s a weird temperature that’s just slightly above room temp!?
Also, it’s pretty lush, fresh and bright and those sweet, lively fruit notes are a really nice counterpart to my lunch, which is a cheese fondue made out of this GREAT melted down Norwegian Jarlsberg cheese which is creamy, buttery and kind of nutty. I’m dipping fresh grapes and crackers in it, so it’s already this nice, sweet and kind of light snack/meal and the tea just mimics those vibes and that kind of fun, upbeat flavour profile.

I’m pretty much keeping that upbeat, fun and lively feeling going with my music pairing today – which is essentially just the Moana soundtrack. I mean, that’s perfectly in line with not only the vibes of the tea but the meal, too! I keep gravitating to this particular song though; it’s just the perfect mirror to the mood/aesthetic I’m striving for.
WHY IS IT CALLED CANCER? Is it named after the astrological sign, as opposed to the disease?
Yes – this particular vendor has a whole line of horoscope teas.
