Day 2 of Dammann Freres advent calendar.
This tea is all cherry bubbilicious with hints of juicy fruit.
The smell of the dry tea is like the gum mixture as stated above. There is a sweet, citrus, but floral smell to the tea. The brewed tea is light and smooth. No astringency. I still get the cherry and juicy fruit flavours. I am getting sweet orange. I do not get much of the cinnamon or nutmeg. There is a sweet floral component to the tea. The tea is moderately thick and for some reason is reminding me of syrup (kind of like chokecherry syrup). Whatever is in this blend, it is pretty darn good.
I love French teas!

Jealous! I’ve missed so much Christmassy tea stuff by being away from Steepster for a couple months :(
I put a reminder in my phone for early next year to remind me to buy this earlier so I get it in time. I also missed out on the Lego advent calendars. Ha ha.
Kitenna – make yourself a deal…drink your teas down to a reasonable 500 before end of next year and you can buy one lol
Lala – I think I got one of the lego calendars!!! It’s waiting for me at my parents’ place.
Sil – Yeah, I haven’t been drinking tea at all lately, so I’m avoiding looking at any websites, even though I know I missed out on some Butiki teas, Verdant teas, the Amosa box… all of which I’m kind of heartbroken about… I need to get back to it!
