Thésaurus Tea Fandom Advent Calendar 2023 – Day 15
Caramel and pineapple puerh? Okay then.
Unfortunately, I mostly just taste the chamomile. Not sure why there even is chamomile in this, honestly. Something is reminding me of coconut as well, I guess it must be the caramel combining with something else? I don’t really get pineapple, and I certainly don’t taste the puerh.
I don’t mind chamomile, so it’s not bad, it’s just nothing like the description.
Flavors: Butter, Chamomile, Coconut, Floral, Honey, Pollen, Smooth
This. Was. So. Strange.
On paper the idea of a caramel and pineapple pu’erh really intrigued me, though historically I’ve been unimpressed by the combination of pu’erh and tropical flavours. One of my guilty pleasure “food crimes” is dipping cheese and pineapple pizza in caramel sauce, so this duo isn’t foreign to me and in my head there was a precedent for the trio of unctuous brothy shou, pineapple, and sweet caramel.
Fucking chamomile though. In ruins everything.
All this tasted like to me was bright, soda-type pineapple with just an unpleasantly aggressive amount of chamomile. I actually am left totally unsure whether the initial flavour pairing that drew me to this blend would have been successful or not because I just couldn’t focus on any other flavour…
Not sure what I’m going to do with the rest of the bag. Open to suggestions.
Yuck! As for pizza with caramel sauce – we sprinkle brown sugar on ours, sometimes with a touch of garlic salt.
The yuck was for the aggressive chamomile, by the way. LOL
Aw, it sounded like a great blend until you mentioned the chamomile. If it’s big chamomile, maybe you could handpick it out of the blend?
