holy crap imperial wedding!!
i only steeped it for 2.5 minutes because everyone seems to comment on how strong it is.
and it IS only our first date after all.
and yes, though i will try longer steeps just to see, i think for me 2.5 minutes is very good. definitely malty and hearty assam. and i can smell the chocolate caramel notes on the nose very easily.
i guess it’s darling subtlety is what has gotten Mariage Freres it’s reputation over the years.
i did buy two capital D dessert teas while i was there, plus 2 straight teas (one black and one green).
this will probably turn into a pre-run staple during the upcoming race season. i can see it already.

I got my local fancy tea shop to add my name to a list for an order of this. $33 cdn for 100g but I need it. Tried it once and fell in lovvvvve!!
totally worth it. TOTALLY. when i think of how much glee i get from a cup or tin of yummy tea, i know the price is always cheap compared to the experience. always.
drink up whatshesaid!!!
I probably won’t get it for awhile but I. Can’t. Wait!
