Kristin drank Vanilla Comoro by Harney & Sons

I finally ordered some of this. I am surprised it took me so long. I made this last night, so I am backlogging. I have to say that this might be the best smelling thing ever. I opened the tin and smelled it and then thought about it until later that evening when I could make tea.

It tastes pretty good, but sadly not as amazing as it smells. Even brewed, the tea smells better than it tastes. I smell the caramelly goodness, but mostly taste a mild black tea. It’s still fantastic, but I really really wish it tasted like it smelled. Perhaps a smidge more sugar next time?

I’ve found that when I go heavy on the leaf on this one for more caramel and vanilla. More like a heaping teaspoon of leaves instead of just a teaspoon.

I unfortunately have the bags on this one but I did feel that it was ‘light’. Maybe I’ll rip open a couple of bags and use them loose.

or just use a little less water! I think that would work :)
