From THEODOR

This Christmas herbal tea, maliciously called “Les Herbes Insolentes” by its creator, is completing the winter collection with more classic flavors. This creation was inspired by one of the one hundred years old traditions from the East of France, imbued with inescapable flavors of spices and citrus fruits.

Its base of herbal tea plants is perfect after a party or a family dinner in order to softly eliminate the excesses with pleasure.

Before brewing it, this vegan herbal tea is offering its beautiful colors to you, with sweet scents, releasing surprising flavors in your mouth through a mysterious alchemist composition; chamomile, green rooibos, a hint of fennel and licorice roots (you will only sense it very lightly), verbena, red pepper, a few blackberry leaves, rose petals, orange peels…

These flavors are going to light up the end of your meals or to offer you an afternoon tea time filled with sweetness and comfort.

Sipdown!

It feels like summer has returned these past few days as it has been very warm and humid. It was so bad late this afternoon that Ashman said he just had to turn on the air conditioning for a little while.

Tonight he got peckish so I offered to make a quick bedtime snack of buttered ramen noodles with everything bagel seasoning from The Spice House and this tea.

I noticed that Rare Tea Company recommends steeping their herbals at boiling with the exception of chamomile, which they feel tastes best at a much lower temp, so I steeped it at 160F. As hot as it has been, we didn’t need a super hot cuppa anyway. I don’t think I even timed this, but just pulled the basket when the noodles were ready.

Since I was nearly out, I had added a bit of Harney & Sons plain loose chamomile. This was really strong, super sunshiney and golden in taste and appearance. We enjoyed our little bedtime snack on the patio and enjoyed the finally cooling (63F at midnight) and finally less humid air.

The taste is much the same as my previous note except that I think there were no pink peppercorns in this and I didn’t pick up any of the warming sensation they had lent before.
A very nice tea. And now gone forever because The Odor closed!

Advent day 11. With this being herbal, I saved it for the end of the day and drank my caffeinated teas earlier. This has a nice blend of chamomile and verbena with a hint of fennel to sweeten it a touch. It’s nice, but nothing special. I feel like there are a ton of blends from other companies that are similar.

This is my third tea of the day… trapped at home because of my eye infection. :(

Never a fan of herbal tea. I choose to brew this because I have had enough caffeine today!

This tea is a concoction of many herbs and flowers – it even contains orange peels for that Christmas touch. But I can only detect the flavours of chamomile, lemongrass and licorice… the sweet taste of licorice does linger so licorice haters beware!

Overall a soothing herbal tea – nothing too special.

Flavors: Flowers, Lemongrass, Licorice
