Apparently I hated this when I first tried it, but I just opened a new sample bag that is about 2 years old, and it’s delicious! It seems like most August Uncommon blends actually benefit from quite a bit of aging, as it mellows out some of the more intense flavoring they use.
The plum is quite distinct, which I love. The bergamot and clove are both mellow and support the plum nicely. I actually may buy this again.
This is You :-D
