Vanilla Comoro from Harney & Sons
76

Today has been such a rollercoaster. On the upside, my H&S order came in, so I have a ton of exploring to do! On the downside, I’m not having a very good time in one of my courses. Paradoxical expectational kind of stuff. Yay.

But this tea is a pleasant surprise. I’m on the same “Whaaaaat, decaf?!” boat as everyone else. The dry leaf smells incredibly sweet. A little on the artificial side, but it’s a similar vanilla I’ve smelled in other vanilla teas. Sugared vanilla.

Very strong sugary vanilla aroma too. It makes you get it straight, that hey, you’re about to drink some serious vanilla tea here.

The taste, like those cubes of vanilla caramel wrapped in plastic. SO that to the tenth power, yo. It’s nice but glad I only got a sample pouch. A bit too cloying for my tastes.

Tonight’s a Pink Floyd kind of night.

Thanks, I hope everything is going well for you in school, at least! Ugh, some people…

Did you end up making an order yourself?

It’s great thank you! Just very busy. I did make an order, but realized after I placed it that I forgot the SoHo coconut chocolate one! So silly of me. Ah well. =) I’m excited to see your reviews on them and can’t wait for mine to arrive.

Don’t worry about it. I bought a tin of SoHo so I’ll pass some down to you in the future. I can’t wait to read your reviews too!

Bio

Tea pretty much pwns my soul.

Other than tea, my other favourite things in life include music, essential oils, cosmetics, movies, and, well, knowledge, I guess. Knowledge is power.

I study languages, primarily Germanic languages, and to narrow that down even more, Scandinavian languages. Biology was (is still?) another passion of mine but something in me wanted to go down the linguistics route instead.

I like my tea black just like my metal.
