Great MF/French tea. A blend with rich notes. Chocolate/Caramel.

Great use of the hazlenut with the vanilla.

Great flavor!

Tasty, warm, delicious, sweet, nutty….just like it’s billed. Vanilla, Shortbread, and Black Tea.

A totally unique Oolong. There are other New Zealand Oolongs that are more floral and are higher up on teas I traditionally like. The toasty peanut notes in this one are great!

This is a great blend of tea! Jasmine, citrus, bergamont all in great cup of tea!

Quite a delicious tea. Malty, chocolatey …so much promise. When it is all grown up and in Northwinds or in Golden Orchid it has such flair.

In this room the heat pipes just cough

I appreciate everyone’s enthusiasm for this tea. For me the joy of this tea is in its understatement. It is not a bombardment on the taste buds, but so well balanced; a tea that has been built, not blended. Each of the pieces critical, there, but not there. A handful of rain, if you will, tempting you to defy it.

Could it be over the top? Definitely. However, like many of the Freres tea, it comes together in harmony. It can be quite a luxury though.

Black/Green blend. It is as good as the experience/atmosphere at Alice’s. “Peace and Quiet Mayhem.”
