Out of the 2015 Winter Collection, this was by far the one I was more eager to try. But I didn’t get my hopes too high, because quite often the one I’m eager to try doesn’t live up to my expectations.
I’ll start by saying that I do find something off putting about the smell. Overall it’s not gross but there’s something about it (probably the lemon peel) that would make me hesitate. Red flag moment for me, because the smell is usually not overly wrong about how much a like a tea.
But it would seem this time is an exception to that rule! Whatever’s causing the funky smell in no way translates into the taste! On top of that, this 100% delivers on the whole french toast thing. Pretty perfect french toast at that. Even a drizzle of maple syrup in there. Mmm…
Now I have probably already blown the rest of the year’s tea budget at this point, but I know I’ll have to pick some of this up…On the Christmas wish list it goes!
Flavors: Bread, Cardamom, Cinnamon, Maple Syrup, Sugar, Vanilla
Yay, glad you like it too!
