For some reason I thought this would be a good idea to have this afternoon before I figured out if my water pitcher was producing good water or not. This is another one that seems like it had a lot of potential, but possibly tainted by the water. It had a weird bitter note that was very sharp and I’m not certain wasn’t leftover soap aroma from the pitcher. Sigh. But this had nice almond, raspberry and rose notes, and smelled amazing. Will try again, and I have plenty of this one!

I’m so excited about this one, too. I’m ashamed to admit I actually don’t own any Fauchon teas… (It’s especially ridiculous considering I used to work just next to the main shop in Place de la Madeleine.) …but after reading all your Fauchon notes, I realize I need to rectify this ASAP.
momo, I will definitely be trying it again soon!
Anna, I hadn’t tried any until recently when I got some samples from another steepsterite. I wasn’t expecting to be impressed but I really enjoyed them! I was just in Paris so I picked up some of their teas because they don’t ship to the US on their online store!
Ahhh I can’t wait to hear more about this one!

Ugh, now I have to go check how they ship within Europe. Damn you and your delectable tea cupboard.
