My absolute favorite tea. I think it has something to do with the elderberry and quince. Only requires 1 cube of Dan Sukker Ruokopalasokeri (sugar).

I tasted this tea in the teabag version. The name of this tea promises something very special, but I was disappointed. Firt, the smell isn´t very original. I tasted this tea raw (meaning without milk/honey/sugar) and I wasn´s impressed. To me, it tasted like regular assam tea. It was ok, but I could´t find any real aroma notes that would have really spiced the tea.

A cup of tea bag Emperor’s bride. I was expecting it would be terrible but it was ok. Not great but it was ok. I like loose tea version much much much better.

A cup at work earlier today. I must have accidently steeped too long. I’m too used to drinking tea at home and having a timer and no distraction. I’ll have to do better next time.
