how is it possible that i went to the Rue de Rivoli Angelina and did NOT get the Mont Blanc dessert?
how!!??
i guess i will have to return to paris after all.
plus there is so much more tea shopping i have to do there.
i don’t really remember this tea. i actually suspect that Angelina is a bit over hyped by tourism. but also i was exhausted by then and was just trying to get as many experiences in as possible. even if what i really needed was a rest.
i know it’s sad, but neither sleeping when you have limited time, nor a desensitized experience is ideal. i just opted for the latter is all.
Ok a little surprised there’s not more tasting notes on this, or Angelina’s Paris in general. Yes Yes it’s golden crop is the dessert but it’s such the tourist shop- so many people have gifted this or used as a souvenir.
I know I have, it’s an iconic gift. Also a really easy gift to impress general tea drinkers or Paris romantics. The black tea lovers in your life would generally appreciate this tin. It’s inner compartment is plastic instead of metal all over but overall pretty well sealed. Brew it properly and you have mellowly fruit and buttery chestnut tea that’s perfect for autumn. Over brew and you get a strong black with a lingering sweetness and coppery feel on your tongue.
Does it taste like Angelina’s Mont Blanc? No that’s the stuff of the gods, don’t fool yourself- get the chestnut cream if you wanna bring some of that amazing pastry home. This is tea- elegant and strong with little bits of sweet roasted chestnut. Goes well on its own or with milk, feel free to sweeten with maple syrup instead to match it’s maple chestnut notes.
Flavors: Chestnut, Fruity, Maple Syrup, Toffee
Clear yellowish-amber liquor, medium bodied, with a touch of astringency. Drinkable, but not particularly smooth Smells sweet at first, with a hint of licorice. Tastes predominately of chestnuts. Indifferent with milk and sugar.
Flavors: Apple, Maple Syrup, Orange Blossom, Toffee
soooo this tea is inspired by the dessert…which, for those of you who don’t know, is like a vnailla chestnut flavoured decadence. I can see how this tea is reminiscent of that….though there’s a note to this that doesn’t sit well with me. thankfully the tea base itself isn’t terrible so it’s still a decent cup of tea. It will just never be my favourite when i think of all the other teas i have or could have hahaha
