Fortnum & Mason Advent Day 8
I drank this today as we went out of town yesterday. This is not a favorite Christmas tea nor is it a favorite Fortnum tea, yet I have three tins of it – one large and two tiny. They duplicate this tea every year in the advent and the karge tin came in the Christmas hamper this year. I will probably give away one of the small tins. I like that it is more than just orange-cinnamon-clove like so many black Christmas teas, but I really could do without the clove. It says the blend is five per cent clove, and that is 4 3/4% more than I want.
Not the worst Christmas tea ever and sometimes I even enjoy with food, but definitely not my favorite, either. Maybe I can pick most of the cloves out.
I’m with you on the clove LOL!
I have now picked all the clove I could find out of the small tin. Hopefully that will help.
My opinion as well…why overdo it always with clove in Xmas blends???
