Quick Review

I’ve made a bad habit of stopping off at a local Coffee & Tea cafe by my job (there are two locations, each within a 6 mile radius from either my job or home) during the day when I’m awaiting to return to work.

Lately, I’ve been drinking their teas without complaint, so, I decided to ask the barista for something “tasty” and dessert-like. She pointed out the “Banana Bloom Tisane” which was supposed to be “like banana pie with lavender.” That’s false. It turned into a lavender nightmare, and there are cloves and cinnamon chunks within the tea. I like it, but since there is no banana flavor to it, I’m giving this the low rating.

P.S. It looked like lentil soup.

That looks absolutely dreadful…

Yep, it looks like fennel mixed with lentils. I can only imagine how gross it is, considering how much I dislike lavender in tea.

I didn’t expect it to be so lavander-esq. It was horrible!

I made the mistake recently of buying tea called “remember me” from steeped tea. I figured since lavender was low in the ingredients list I would be ok. Nope-lavender overdose. That’s why I’m very leery of buying from them or any company whose min amount of loose leaf tea to buy is 50g. Wayy to much tea to commit to if you’re not sure you’ll like it.

The minimum amount for this tea was 100g. The listing of the tea is “banana, spices, and floral undertones” AKA so much lavender that you’ll go crazy!

Gooseberry Spoon

That doesn’t even look like good lentil soup.

MadHatterTeaDrunk

No, but that’s what came to mind. Ha-ha. It looks like it could be a soup similar to it. Both unappealing to the eyes and mouth.

MadHatterTeaDrunk

Meaning the tea, not lentil soup.

Drinking down a lot of my teas in 2020. I may not observe these sessions as much as I’d like, but I’ll note them, when the mood strikes.
