TTB 2025. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t what I got. I literally grimaced after taking my first sip. Then I made my poor partner try it; he grimaced and asked why I subjected him to this. Safe to say that this blend is not a winner in this household.
The spice combo itself is fine, it’s just that it doesn’t really work as a tea. This could be good as a broth base or for cooking grains with. Just not on its own as a beverage – the flavors are just TOO savory and strong for that.
