Trying to catch up on tasting notes for the past few days! This is such a unique tea. It’s a very pale color when steeped, just the barest hint of yellow-green, and it smells delicious. Really creamy with a warm touch of nutmeg. The taste of the tea is buttery and rich, with lots of egg/cream notes. (I don’t quite taste any vanilla from it, per se, but that may just be me?) It’s very smooth, with a natural sweetness that evokes the flavor of eggnog.
The nutmeg is present, but I would say it’s subtle. All the flavors are balanced, and I can taste the green tea base, too—it’s vegetal and buttery and complements the egg note well. I don’t know how different this tea is from Creamy Eggnog, but I love this version! I’m looking forward to drinking it during the holidays.
