Day 22 of our Advent Tea Swap. From amandastory516.

I was so excited to open my Advent tea for today and see that it is a smoky vanilla black tea! I love smoke, vanilla, and black teas and I’ve never had them all together in one tea so this is kind of an ideal choice for me. This is pure vanilla bean flavor, nothing artificial about it. I’m not getting any smoke unfortunately, but it’s still a really nice vanilla black.

The lemony, earthy, funky aroma carries over to taste. There is an almost preserved lemon thing going on that is strangely really good! It tastes citrusy and zingy on the toungue, but the bergamot is lost. So it is mostly a black lemon tea. A touch too lemony. I want some Earl Grey in there too. Takes milk well.
Later as it cools- I like it less. It starts to taste like lemon cleaner. I down graded it to a 60. It’s on the verge of not recommending. When this oz I bought is gone, I won’t get more.

A smooth tasting tea with smokey and peppery notes.

This is a smokey chai with a bit of a bite. It is always nice to find a new twist on Chai. I like this one a lot.

This tea is a delightful surprise. I generally do not like French tea because it is usually floral. But this is a nice blend of chinese and indian black teas that is slightly sweet and slightly smoky. I’ll be drinking a lot of this.

An interesting combination of spicy, citrus and floral notes with a smooth oolong base.
