So there has been talk circulating around the idea of a smoky vanilla tea. So I tried my hand at making my own this morning using Tippy’s Lumberjack and Townsend Tea’s Mt. Hood Vanilla I think my ratio was 3 parts vanilla tea to 1 part smoky tea. I would have liked to have seen more vanilla flavor and less LS smokiness, but I think the blend was really quite good. It will have to do for now, I am keeping my eyes peeled for the real thing soon.
Don’t let me down, Steepster!
Flavors: Smoke, Vanilla

i was thinking about adding vanilla bean to the smokey black from verdant in light of those conversations as well. interesting to see your experiment!
@LP: Whispering Pines has been hounded by his fans to make one. I hope he does!
@Sil: I think the Verdant smoky tea would be a much better fit. I think the LS that Tippy uses is a bit heavy, kinda bacon-like. Huh. Bacon Vanilla tea…..
I just had the Melbourne Breakfast tea by T2 this morning. It was smoky and vanilla and honey. Really yummy, although the smoke was quite light. Maybe you’d like that one?
Was just curious. LPT is doing a vanilla smoked Dian Hong if the funding on GoFund me works. It’s a fun idea :)
Sounds intriguing, who is doing smoked vanilla?
