This just arrived today with my second order of Cinnamon Roll Honeybush (yes, I am a fan!)
I was not expecting to like this much at all but I wanted to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised! I don’t normally like banana in tea but this is very tasty. The coconut is more of a back-note and they both complement the mellow, roasted quality of the hojicha pretty well. These flavors are pronounced but they are not nauseating or artifical tasting, both of which can be an issue with flavored tea. There is a slight “cream” feel to this but I did cheat and punch it up some by adding vanilla soymilk to it also. Here is a nice afternoon or evening dessert tea which is also light in caffeine. I got two steeps out of this and they were both yummy. :)
mmmm hojicha… that’s barley isn’t it??
well, barley-ish anyhow! I guess cuz it’s roasted…
Oooh! Interesting! It looks like 52teas has a lot of really great blends!
Hmm…. I might end up giving in and ordering it… Waiting for my cinnamon roll! : ) Can’t wait to try it.
