TeaboxThis is a very sweet and relaxing tea, with strong almondy and vanilla aromas.
The taste is lightly bitter, with a stronger almond flavor coming through, followed eventually by the familiar earthy flavors.
This is a great simple tea for gradual appreciation, I can see myself using this in a blueberry tea mix.
