Dammann Frères Advent 2021 – Day 20
I was worried this would be anise-heavy from the dry leaf aroma, but it’s more like a cozy lemon marshmallow cloud with anise accents. I’m enjoying this one, and wish it had fallen on one of the days I felt the sickest last week. It’s soothing.
Mom says “tastes like licorice.” So anise is definitely still a key player.
Flavors: Anise, Candy, Citrus, Creamy, Lemon, Lemongrass, Sweet, Vanilla

^what ashmanra said. The anise troubles me, but maybe it is not too bad, always a crapshoot with anise. Frankly, I’ve been having more than enough anise in my masala chai.
I don’t pass up regular clouds either! :)
Hopefully you don’t get too much anise in your sample, Evol. For me this combined the lemon flavouring I loved so much in the Citron Oolong, with a few herbal ingredients (lemongrass, anise); it was easier for me to accept.
Sounds delightful! I mean who could pass up lemons or clouds?

Thanks, CrowKettle. I’m a bit behind with the advent, but I’ll get there. I loved DT’s Citron Oolong and LemonPoundcake. If the lemon is anything like those, I’m good.
