I have a raw throat. My nose is plugged, so I expected the sore throat is from post nasal drip. I first reached for David’s Cold 911, but I got my Whispering Pines tea order the other day and I decided to go with that. I ordered two ounces of North Winds and 2 ounces of Golden Orchid and I am dying to open those. But, since I am smelling even less that usual right now, I decided to try this, which was the sample sent with my order.
This was a rich tea. No thin taste or flat notes. Even with my nose clogged I could detect something sweet like raisin. I didn’t get the spearmint or the spice, really, probably because of my stupid cold. It felt good on my throat. I think this is better hot. I actually dozed off about half way through the cup. I went back to it, but when it cooled, there was a slight astringency to the sip. So I will be sure to drink this one when it is warm.

So it was YOU that got the last of the Golden Orchid! How could you?! Haha, just kidding. Hope you feel better soon!
Get well soon!I can still remember how Golden Orchid smelled… :(
@Tabby-Mea Culpa!I was just super lucky to get an email from WP at a time when I could go right to the site and order. It sounds like Brendan is hoping to have more teas in regular stock soon. Hopefully this one and Cocoa Amore will be included.
@CrowKettle-Thank you. I hope this will pass quickly.
