I’m enjoying the new incarnation of this tea. It has a nice, natural banana flavour and the base which is robust but not astringent works very well with these flavours and gives the tea substance and bread-like notes. The only thing missing is the nut flavours (I don’t know how you guys do it, but I always put nuts in my banana bread, either pecans or walnuts) so if you reblend this one maybe try working those in LiberTeas (but NO MORE sunflower seeds! ;p).

I won’t add tree nuts to any teas (exception: coconut) because of allergy concerns.
I know, but isn’t there a way of flavouring the tea without using the nuts themselves?
Yes – and they were added to this tea. However, they were not as strong as the other flavoring components – so therefore they aren’t being picked up on – if I had adjusted it, there would be fewer bread notes or banana notes. The nut flavoring is there – just not as obvious a flavor.
Gotcha :)
