This is one of the teas I bought on their boxing day sale.
I was a bit amazed; pistachio is expensive here (probably everywhere, but I digress) and I love that nuts. And combined with mint? Honestly I couldn’t imagine it.
This is only tea I have opened from that order (if I don’t count the already drank tea bags) and I just had to smell it.
Nuttiness hit my nose, then the mint notes… I let my brother smell it and he said “It’s how I would expect it.” and me too! It smells indeed quite nice, though quite strongly IMO.
Ah well, flavour profile. I prepared it two times already; so this will be a combination of both. One was 4 minutes (as recommended) long, the other was certainly more than 5 and less than 10 minutes long. I was a bit distracted by my grandma, who decided to give me some money to finish the school (I have to pay per term.). How nice from her!
I digressed again, sorry.
It is nicely nutty, with pretty much nice base. It is indeed like a pistachio (is that the cardamom in actually?); and the menthol freshnesss is very enjoyable too. It seems fresh to me, but luckily it isn’t overpowering the nutiness nor the base.
Well blended, indeed! 50 grams will be gone faster than I have thought. It seems that almost only me and Roswell Strange are truly fans of this blend :D
Flavors: Nuts, Peppermint

Pistachios are very expensive here, too. I could eat a bag in one sitting, so I don’t keep any around. Too costly for idle snacking and don’t get me started on the bliss that is pistachio butter…
I went for a few new blends for me! And only one favourite. Mint Pistachio, Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster (that’s the favourite), Banana Bread Chai (sounded nice) and Relax (because of exams) Free shipping caused that I have ordered my friend a surprise belated Christmas gift; I bought her a Christmas box of 12 tea bags. She is loving them!
Your boxing day parcel arrived! Pistachio is expensive here too!
It was on Friday already. Quite fast.

The post was just dropped here and B&B is here for me as well. :)
I hope you will find there some nice teas Courtney. But I am sure you ordered only the nice ones :D
Haha! I only ordered refills of my favourites. :P What about you?
God bless Grandma! What a blessing!

That’s awesome Martin! And sharing tea is the best, especially when they’re so well received! :)
Aww, your Grandma sounds sweet! How kind. : )
