From Adagio Custom Blends, Cara McGee

Queen and Country traditionalist, but still recounting his days in Afghanistan drinking green tea, John Watson prefers his tea with a bit of cream, no sugar, and just a little warm from a touch of cinnamon.

Inspired by BBC’s Sherlock, which I am in no way affiliated with. This is created purely for my own enjoyment.

Created by: Cara McGee

Ingredients: assam melody tea, ceylon sonata tea, green tea, black tea, cinnamon, natural cinnamon flavor, orange, natural bergamot flavor & blue cornflowers

Steeping Instructions: Steep at 205° for 3 minutes.

I love this tea so much. It’s warmth and slight spice is absolutely phenomenal. I love it for it’s versitility as well! Alone, with sugar, with milk, with honey, with everything at all it is delicious. I find myself consistently coming back to Watson, and as my first blend by Cara it holds a special place in my heart.

It’s a very smooth tea, with just the barest hint of spice. It’s not overly strong, but it has a nice presence when you drink it. I think the word is “satisfying”. I took it without anything, but I can see this being a very good tea for early mornings in an armchair or late nights after a long day. I love that there’s a nice ratio of green tea to it, because black tea tends to upset my stomach, and the cinnamon lends it a very nice smell but doesn’t make it too spicy to drink when you’re tired. All in all, it’s a very relaxing tea. In terms of taste, it’s nice. I don’t think it stands out particularly one way or the other, but I’d want this one in my cupboard for those days when I just need a nice cuppa to help me unwind. It doesn’t demand too much attention when you drink it, but you leave the empty cup feeling better than before you had it.

This tea lives up to its namesake. The first sip of this tea feels like wrapping up in a warm jumper. It is my favorite comfort tea. Somehow Cara managed to create a woolen jumper in a cup. It is perfect on its own, but for a fuller flavour, add a dash of cream and sugar.
also: as a side-note, I managed to get my sister addicted to tea by having her try this one. The first bag of john was gone within about a week

It took me a while to like this tea, but now I come to love its taste. I drink it almost everyday when I wake up.
