Herbal Lush Chamomile

I’m really pushing the envelop today, folks! I’m branching out and sampling stuff out of my comfort zone! I’m not too fond of Chamomile unless the other ingredients impress me! I will say this much…the little bit of cinnamon that is coming thru is a nice touch and helps calm down the intense chamomile. Sure, the chamomile is still present but not as much as I thought it would be. Next…the strawberry notes are barely there and I would LOVE to taste a little bit more but understand their reasoning for this…it’s not supposed to be about the strawberry! The rose somewhat works hand-in-hand with the chamomile to bring that floral bouquet type taste. This is a nice twist on Chamomile and for that I am enjoying my cup! It’s not my preference in flavor combos but a good calming and floral mix that certainly surprised me! Pretty Good!

Thank you TeaEqualsBliss for sending me this herbal blend. As it is 4:00 am, I don’t want anything caffeinated, but I did want a little something to curl up to as I continue to wind-down. This is perfect.

I have said in the past that I’m not crazy for chamomile, but I am beginning to get it through my head that it isn’t the chamomile I’m not crazy for, but the yellow, powdery substance that is stuffed into teabags and stocked on grocery store shelves. That chamomile is yucky, this chamomile is tasty! The snappy cinnamon compliments the apple-y tones in the chamomile. The strawberry is a soft flavor, and I might like it to be stronger, but, as it is it is still really good. The rose is more of an afterthought, but, it is gentle and sweet.

I really enjoyed this cuppa… and now I think I’m ready for bed!
