Teas of the Week for May 2 through May 23, 2022: All of them!
Greetings, Tea People!
The Tea of the Week for May 23, 2022 is:
Anne’s Breakfast Blend 2022 – No, I won’t be making a new breakfast blend every year. Or maybe I will. I haven’t decided yet so don’t hold me to that. This is a black tea blend using my favorite Scottish breakfast blend (a very finely cut CTC of Assams & Kenyan black teas) combined with vanilla bean, marshmallow root & coconut. It’s not a coconut tea, or a vanilla tea, or a marshmallow tea – it’s something beyond all of those – it’s so yummy and a perfect way to start your day!

The Tea of the Week for May 16, 2022 is:
Cherry Crisp Honeybush Blend – A blend of organic honeybush, combined with cherries, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg & oats for a delightfully dessert-y cuppa.

The tea of the week for May 9, 2022 is:
Cranberry Lemonade Green Tea – A blend of Chinese Chun Mee & Gunpowder green teas blended with lemony herbs (Lemon Verbena, Lemon Thyme & Lemon Grass), lemons & cranberries. Bright & refreshing – this one makes a really outstanding iced tea!

The tea of the week for May 2, 2022 is:
Chocolate Pineapple Black Tea – inspired by one of my favorite flavor combinations, I went a little off the beaten track with this blend. A combination of black teas (Assam, Yunnan, Ceylon & Gu Zhang) blended with cacao shells & nibs & pineapple slivers. I love how this one turned out!

THANKS TO EVERYONE for your support! It means so much to me!
I feel a bit like a mind reader with the Blood Orange Creamsicle blend, haha!
The new site looks great though, and I’m excited for this year’s 12 Days selection! :)
That’s not all – though – because you also mentioned on a totally different post from a different company about how you didn’t like the word “flan” – and our featured reblend for August … contains that word in the name in the tea. (I’ll be announcing the tea on Monday but I’m sure that totally gave it away anyway.)
I’m also very excited to see these updates again. Loving the new site, it looks great!
I’m so sad I missed the 12 Teas box…no idea how I managed that. I filled out the form, so hoping there is an extra I can purchase! :)
Ugh I already have a subscription and advent and placed 2 orders last weekend and now I see the two Nov teas, so far? Will try to resist another order
AH as I was reading your description for ‘Sweet Zhang’, I was thinking of ‘Black Silk Chocolate Milk’ and then I read further and you mention it tasting like chocolate milk! Could this base work for a reblend of Black Silk Chocolate Milk?
@anne – sorry for the delay in response. just wanted to buy some and you only had 1 left lol.
@Sil – there is more in stock. But, you should hurry and get it if you want some because it’s going quickly and I’m not – at this time – planning on reblending immediately.
I just brewed up Caramel Apple v2 today (before seeing this post). I also apparently tried the original (blended only by Frank, correct?) but have no recollection of the flavour. I like the base of v2 so hopefully v3 stands up to it!! Excited to try it when my next box ships! :D
Yes, the original batch was crafted by Frank. He utilized the Fujian Oolong (this v.3 utilizes the Fujian Oolong as well) I don’t think he used cinnamon in the tea though, but I like the cinnamon in there. I guess I just feel like apples and cinnamon belong together.
I agree! I think I strongly associate the two. I see that v2 was a baked oolong; off the top of my head fujian oolong is meaning nothing to me. I really ought to get my oolong flavour profile straight one day!
@Kittenna: I enjoy both bases. I think the baked Oolong has more of a roasted flavor that gives the caramel apple notes more of a “baked apple” flavor – whereas with this Fujian Oolong, I get more of a straightforward caramel apple flavor – like dipping apples into caramel sauce (with a wee bit of cinnamon added to the caramel.)
