Such a pretty cup from beginning to end. The leaves are long, fuzzy and colorful – really pretty. The liquid pours out as a crystal clear light gold. The smell is gorgeous with notes that are simultaneously starchy/bread/chewy and sweet/light/fruity/honeyed. And after it cools just a minute or so, the taste is just… ahh! Grilled plantains drizzled in honey… with honeysuckle or plumeria around to add a high, floral sweetness. Every sip is like a mini tropical vacation.

Chewy, bready, honeyed?? Sounds yum. Must have! :)
I enjoyed a delicious sample of this a while back. I just wish Samovar’s stuff wasn’t so expensive, otherwise I’d order more.
Great review. I had a few cups of this tonight, it really is good stuff… I’d make a note on it, I’m just in a really lazy mood today.
AND BOOOOO, the Blues lost last night :( …. Andy Mac got a point though, and the overall game was fun!
It is seriously good. And Samovar’s stuff is a bit expensive but considering their quality, I figure it is well worth it.
Garrett, yeah, that game was not fun at the end. I found myself hoping that they were giving out free beer with the free food. On the plus side, I did have time to switch over to the Ducks and see Selanne hit 600 goals. Go Teemu!
Fresh bread tea … hmm … now there’s a flavor suggestion …
