Backlog from this morning.

This was okay. It wasn’t remarkable but it was pretty good. My only disappointment was that I detected very little Trail Mix-ness. Instead, it both smelled and tasted like cherries, with a little bit of nuttiness. It was pretty good but it was a little disappointing that it didn’t taste like actual trail mix. I’ll have to try again sometime and see what I can do with it!

This is yummy, and it smells so good. I can smell all the ingredients. It smells sweet and almond-y, with notes of apricot and coconut. The black tea emerges as the strongest flavor of this cup, but the other flavors are also quite strong. The flavor is more apricot-y than the aroma would suggest. The almond and apricot are pretty evenly matched in this cup, with the coconut being more of a background note. It almost has a bake-y taste (and smell) to it, like an apricot/almond/coconut muffin. YUM!

Starting my day with this tea. The black tea is still the strongest component of this cup, however, I’m noticing more of the almond flavor today than I remember the last time I tried it. Last time, I remember the flavor of the apricot, perhaps I need to let this cool just a tad more for the flavors to pop.

I can’t believe I am only the 2nd person to log this one! Thanks to LiberTEAs for this sample!!!!

The aroma is great…the taste equally so! I can smell and taste the black tea, the apricot, nuts, and coconut! Perhaps a tad more of the nutty-goodness than the apricot and more apricot than the coconut but I really like it! The Apricot lingers more than the other flavors well after the sip! NUMMY!

SIPDOWN

Just because.

See previous notes…I just might have to pull the trigger on this one and buy a larger amount :)
