Thanks, Teamore, for a cupsworth of this! :-)
The dryleaf of this is so enticing! Cinnamon apple goodness! It was sitting on my desk all day at woek and the scent was so strong it was the only thing I could smell for a while. It worried me just slightly that the scent was a little bit like apple cider vinegar, which was the thing that disappinted me when I tried Marie-Antoinette by Nina’s.
The taste lived up to the aroma (even with me vastly oversteeping). It starts out with the taste of pie filling- strong green apples melted down and enhanced by cinnamon. As I kept drinking I started picking up on the green tea base, which was perfect to represent crust because of. How buttery it was!
There was a little apple cider vinegar note in the aftertaste, but it wasn’t completely unpleasant. Overall this was better than I expected it to be and really evocative of pie!
