I have been craving LS for a few days. People in the neighborhood are firing up their wood stoves (pun not intentional) and it just smells so good. When I mixed lavender with EG this morning I got the idea smoke and lavender should mix well. Used my usual scoop of leaf and slightly less than 1/4 tsp of lavender. Steeped 3 minutes. This blend also has a very light touch of bergamot but it is barely noticeable. I was right. The two seem to go together very well. So much so in fact I would have liked a little more lavender in my cup. That’s just crazy talk but true. A very nice cup. When I have time I am going to try rose and lavender. Gmathis, you have created a monster. It’s alive!

Indeed. Would never in a million years considered lavender with LS!
(Then again … you just inspired me … lavender/cocoa???)
Lavender & chocolate go surprisingly well together.
Maybe I can get Carson to fix me a pot. No, wait…it’s the butler’s night off. Guess it’s up to me.
I have cocoa nibs! Joy, more experiments.
Ooo, I have some lavender!
Try it. You’ll like it.
