This does not seem to be well received on Steepster but I really liked it. Pineapple? Yum. Marshmallow? Yum.

Is this the one I shared with you or a new vintage?
I got this from CuppaGeek for the blog
I am guessing it was a recent batch. I liked it, but found that it needed more oomph: a gutsier base and deeper flavours.
The batch would have been from at least a year ago, probably earlier than that.
If my memory serves me, I created this blend during my first year doing this 52Teas thing – I haven’t made a batch since.
Yes – I just checked, I created this blend as the tea of the week for July 13, 2015 – which is about a month and a half after I took over 52Teas.
Ahh yes, the one and only batch of this then. I preferred it when I mixed it with something else.
A secret about this blend – I actually intended to create a pineapple mint tea . . . but when I went to the tea studio with my recipe, I read mint as marshmallow and proceeded to create a pineapple marshmallow tea instead. LOL Maybe someday I will do the pineapple mint.
My excuse: it was the first two months of my doing the 52Teas thing and it was a very crazy time. Busy, busy, busy – with all the reblends and creating the teas of the week too.
Hahahahaha! Thank you for sharing that story with us, Anne. Great! The concept of this blend reminds me of those pineapple marshmallow-ish dark chocolates that come in a good box of chocolates—is it Black Magic that I am thinking of, perhaps?
On another note, I have been drinking Coconut French Toast w Cardamon Syrup Black today and I’ve been trying to post a review here because it is most fab, but Steepster will not let me. That tea page is odd and will not take a review. That tea today is splendid because for the first time, coconut is coming through more strongly than ever before and that is a marvellous flavour addition in my cup. I would support more coconut in this in future reblends or perhaps a new coconut variation of the blend. Anyway, it is a masterpiece!
