I have a special relationship with Kusmi Tea’s Prince Vlad. It is heaven. It is joy. It is love. The company that makes it is also very generous, and always sends samples of other teas to try. Gift with purchase? Everybody loves that!
This was among the three teas they sent along with my dear Prince Vlad.
The description on the single serving bag (black tea, spices, orange) made me think that this would be close to an Earl Grey. Oh, the error of my thinking.
First sip: No. But maybe I didn’t give this a proper try.
Second sip, followed by a few more consecutive sips: My taste buds are no longer on speaking terms with me.
This reminds me of a rooibos, only more unsettling since I thought I was going to send my mouth on an earl grey journey. Website shows it has licorice. That explains things.
Flavors: Licorice
