Adventaggedon Day 23 – Tea 6/6
This was really nice – sort of more in line with what I expect from Mariage Freres but just at its peak execution. Also, is this the first white tea in the advent so far? I can’t remember…
The main flavour here is definitely the mint, but it’s a very soft and soothing herbaceous mint complimented by equally soothing florals like lavender and rose. The overall tea is very peaceful, calming and relaxing. I felt like it was well balanced, smooth and flavourful while still keeping that feeling of being delicate/elegant. It can sometimes be a real challenge tasting flavourful and being a delicate type of profile.
Not sure if I would buy this – the pricing would likely play a large factor since I know that MF can be quite pricey, but I’d certainly drink it again or swap for it/get it on discount!
