This was a good dessert tea. I found that it tasted just as much almond as vanilla though, so the name is a little misleading. But that’s ok because I enjoyed it. I added a tiny splash of vanilla creamer because I felt like I needed something to cut the rooibos a little and it amped up the flavour significantly (obviously).

Before Steeping:
Colors- beautiful multicolors
Scent- nutty and vanilla

After Steeping:
Color: orangeish, with herbal essance
Taste:
Nude- Very Vanilla-like, kind of grainy. Not sure if is just the vanilla bean.
With Sugar- grain texture dissapeared, heightened vanilla taste, quite like vanilla extract.

*would be great with a scone

Good job not logging this tea when you actually drank it, Fjellrev. It’s all gone now too. From memory, I wasn’t overly impressed with this. The flavours were a little weak facing the strong rooibos base, but on the plus side, the vanilla was detectable, creamy, and dainty. The almond wasn’t a heavy almond extract kind of almond either, but more like roasted almonds. This had the potential of being great if the vanilla almond weren’t so overpowered by the dry, woodsy base.

Mainly posting this to see what is happening with steepster…. I liked this more than I previously thought! Maybe the flavors are melding with age. I even like how rich the rooibos is.

The dashboard seemed to be lagging earlier today, but notes are showing up now. Maybe people just aren’t posting?

Never can tell! Hopefully notes aren’t disappearing…

This is the first time I’ve logged in for a year. It seemed like everyone migrated to instragram, but I got tired of looking at pictures of tea (Spoiler: they all look pretty much the same after a while). I’ll try to start posting again but haven’t bought tea in years. I have about a 5-lifetime supply of puerh.

Dr. Jim: I shouldn’t buy tea but I do, especially after 10 pm when I am weak. I, too, have a lot of puerh, but I think I can get to it all in this lifetime! Ha ha! Maybe that could be the Steepster benediction – may you live long enough to enjoy all your puerh!

Welcome back, Dr Jim!

Dr Jim, there are plenty here who post sporadically, and dashboard seems to freeze every once in awhile, but we are still going strong with the tea vibes!

I smelled this tea and went “yes I want a pot of this tonight.”

It’s interesting, though. I think the thing I like least about this tea is the immediate taste. There just doesn’t seem to be much to it at first, just a hint of creaminess. However, the vanilla taste lingers, just as you can smell it at first. And that, I must admit, is lovely.

So, I wish it were stronger, but find it nice and relaxing just the way it is.
