Fortnum & Mason Advent Day 9 (tin)
Last year I remembering liking this tea but not being able to taste apple. I decided to overleaf since it had been an enjoyable base that didn’t seem too finicky. I noticed a number of pieces of dried apple in the infuser.
It helped, and I was able to taste a little apple flavor. Now I wonder if sugar brings the apple out more, but I don’t usually add sugar – almost never, in fact. Nevertheless, I may try it that way with Ashman sometime to see if that amplifies the apple.
Bottom line – I like the tea and it tastes good, but the apple is a ghost of a flavor and if I didn’t know what I was drinking, I would just have guessed it was a light, generic fruity flavor.
