Warm Bread Pudding

The TTB has arrived! So big, so many teas… no chance to try them all!
Tea #37

I took this tea from the TTB; checked it visually and I put it back. Then I saw note from ashmanra, realised I saw it somewhere… and took it from the TTB again.

To try out.

I was also pretty sure I have seen it insome other note; maybe a little note about it in other tea note. I don’t remember such things. But decided to try it.

It is indeed a yummy tea. Wonderful aroma, even better taste. Warm notes of cinnamon, smooth creamy vanilla, it was like eating a vanilla pudding (custard) sprinkled with the cinnamon. Apparently bread pudding is something slighlty different.
Very cozy and highly enjoyable tea. A bit sweet.

After gmathis raved about this one, I sent a message to Superanna to look for it next time she goes to Spice and Tea. Since I was disappointed with the profile of our breakfast tea (a good tea, just not the profile I wanted for brekkie today) I was excited to make this one for lunch in celebration of our first really cool day. Even though it has warmed up to 69F there is still a little chill on the breeze and it is cool in the shade.

The aroma of this tea is fabulous. I see chunks of what looks like German amber beet sugar in the blend. Not enough to make it oversweet, though. The spices are just right. I hate it when there is a lot of clove or ginger, or way too much molasses flavor.

This smells lemony and yet rich but the sip is less lemony and more rain and warm but not hot spices.

Delicious, and a great tea to have on hand for fall and winter!

New comfort tea unlocked

This blend is so cozy and warm, it tastes just like warm gooey bread pudding. I may need to grab more before the fall season even begins!

I don’t mean to by a complainypants about the weather, but it’s rained every day for the past two weeks in a place where it typically rains twice a month. So I pulled this out of the box for a comfort cup this morning and got a nice warm cinnamon maple hug. I think this is just as good as Cuppa Geek Morning Waffles and I might need some of this in my cupboard. Thanks for putting it in the box!

Good morning. It was nice to wake up with the sun for a change instead of an hour before it. (That said, I hate time changes. By 6:00, husband and I will be ready to chuck it in!)

So since I have the grace of a little extra time this morning, I’m using it to enjoy my Spice and Tea Exchange splurge—I snagged a four ounce bag of Warm Bread Pudding to sweeten the winter months.

Nothing new to say about it; you can easily pick out the mild lemon and a distinctly raisin-y vibe, especially with a little milk. I suppose the vanilla is supposed to substitute for the bread—nothing tastes especially yeasty. But it’s a lovely, dessert-y rocking chair treat. (Some teas need a little back-and-forth motion to be fully appreciated.)
