Kusmi rarely disappoints me. What a lovely creation!
It’s like a sophisticated Earl Grey, makes you feel delicate, gentle and dare I say – FANCY?
Smells lovely, you can definitely sniff orange peel, lemon and bergamot. Pure pleasure. Instantly puts me in good mood. This tea is so good, it doesn’t need any ‘extras’ or support.
Well, a biscuit or a piece of cake to go along are always a good idea ;-) no matter what tea.

I will definitely order more. This is why Kusmi remains one of my top brands and I spend crazy amounts of money at their store. I should probably have some golden VIP card and massive discounts by now. Well, instead, I have a cupboard full of colorful metal tins that make me smile each time I open it.

Flavors: Bergamot, Lemon, Orange

Preparation
195 °F / 90 °C 3 min, 0 sec 5 tsp 200 OZ / 5914 ML

I agree, so fancy! And I’m happy that someone else is doing the advent as well! :D

Hi Cameron! Oh yes, of course :D This year was such an odd one that I decided I need to spoil myself rotten and actually ordered 2 advent calendars – from Kusmi and T2. The one from T2 I already finished in November. I desperately needed something nice to wait to in the previous month as well ;-) Have you tried any other advent cals? I definitely want to continue with the tradition and order some more next year.

Oh yes, I went advent overboard this year and have 7 advents, 5 of which are tea. :X

Wow, good for you! And that definitely made me feel better about my second advent calendar purchase ;-) Let the festivities begin and have a great December! xxx

That’s what I’m here for, making others feel better with my rampant tea purchasing. ;)

Bio

Hi there, I’m Anna! I’m a lawyer currently living in Cambridge, UK. Tea is my biggest hobby and the only thing I consume without fail every day. Probably between 6 and 12 cups/mugs/buckets of tea a day.

I prefer my tea smoking hot and without milk or sugar.
Actually, I take it back, the best ‘cheer me up’ beverage is black tea with honey and lemon. Handed to you by someone you love and who says everything will be fine.

Favorite Purveyors:
Kusmi
Paper & Tea
Moya

Teas I love and could die for: Moroccan mint, Genmaicha, Green jasmine, White tea, Earl grey, Darjeeling, Mate and Macha

Teas I hate with a passion: fruit teas, rooibos, chai, roasted mate

My guilty pleasure is having high tea experiences in posh places around Cambridge. It’s so worth it.
