This tea is old, but holding up surprisingly well! I over leafed it on purpose in anticipation of it being weak and added cream. The nutmeg is still coming through and it warming on this suddenly winter day. We had 80 degree days last week and then there was a quick drop into winter temps which has sent me searching for extra warming teas. I have several Butiki teas left that I have been trying to get through, but get distracted with other teas. Overall this tea is good, but I still prefer the Nutmeg Custard that Butiki did.
