I don’t know if I have mentioned this before, but I went a little overboard on the hoarding train when I realized this tea was no longer stocked. I still have one, maybe two sealed bags of it! I forget about it for a time and then come back to it again. I still really like this tea. Part may be nostalgia since the original version was part of my introduction to loose leaf, but part is that I really love almond. I added a little cream to my cup this morning, a little out of habit, but I think I could drink this cup straight. I get a strong baked almond taste with a gentle spice at the end of the sip, well rounded and smooth. I’m surprised at how well this has held up given it’s age! It looses a little of it’s magic as it cools, but is still enjoyable. I feel like the longer I have this, the more impressed I am with it!
