I hate chamomile… but this came with the Halloween sampler pack from M&Ks Tea and I had to try it.
10:30pm, this was just the right time to try it out. The first thing I noticed was all the little pieces of flowers rather than the large tops. While I like the appearance more this way, they are the HARDEST of all things to clean from a steeping device that I have ever encountered.
To my surprise, a great surprise at that, this tea is great. While sipping this, I’m actually thinking about buying more because this is a great tea to drink before bed. The apple taste is right there mixed in with the stronger notes of chamomile, yet it isn’t as nasty as what I remembered. There is a sweetness to this tea that is rather pleasant as well. Overall, this is an impressive tea that makes me question if other chamomile blends are decent.

Ah my girlfriend used to use loads of chamomile flowers in my bodum sets and it would drive me insane trying to clean them after
I always use the empty teabags I buy on amazon for chamomile blends. They are awful to get out of teaballs. Stash makes a good Cinnamon Apple Chamomile blend as well. I like apple chamomile blends, as well as a lavender chamomile blend I tried – until I realized that the lavender was making me really queasy. Most of the others I’ve tried weren’t especially remarkable.
+1 for the fill-them-youself empty teabags for chamomile. I brewed it once in my Western mug steeping filter basket. Just once. Never again. Bought the empty tea bags the next day.
Yea…. I might end up throwing this strainer away it’s absolutely ridiculous.
Funny enough, I pulled this one out from your Secret Pumpkin package to try first. :)
Beware of how you steep it!!!!!!!
Those little guys get EVERYWHERE
i think we dishwashered it in the end
I never got my strainer completely clean. Bought another and now use the contaminated one for trying the occasional flavored tea.
