Is this Malibu Rum? It does smells like buttered rum, and coconut. Has a nice buttery flavour, and very good with coconut.

This is one of those teas that would good on snowy days. After snow boarding or skiing. So I’m off for another cup, and to find skis.

Holy bregamot! That smells really good. It has a great citrus flavour. I don’t taste the cacao, but still smooth and delicious.

Thanks Teajo!

This smells a lot like rum. I like nutty flavour, but it needs more almond.

This smells delicious dry. Not really caramel though. The flavour is toffee like, without being overly sweet. Will have to try this as a cold brew.

Thanks to Lazey for this.

It smells nicely like almonds dry, I get more of cookie scent brewed.

The flavour is nice, and sweet. Almondy, without tasting like marzipan.

Yet another Stargate sipdown.

I think I understeeped this. Anyway, it smells nicely like fresh apples. And the flavour is like natural apple cider. Good with cinnamon.

This is my Stargate sipdown tea. The maple and pecan has a very nice aroma. Kinda like breakfast pastries.

I really like the flavour of oolong. It’s great with the pecan, and a little sweet as maple. Thanks to Emily M for sending me this! :)

I wanted to try this with oatmeal cookies, but I didn’t have any. So I had it with date oatmeal, and an episode of Stargate SG-1.

It smells very nice, like the cookies. And the cookie flavour is really good. Could use a little more cinnamon (I really like it), otherwise delicious.

Whomever sent me this… thanks!
