Mmmm.
I always love Vanilla Tea.
I must say, when it comes to teas, teaforte has been my first love.
The cute little packaging had me at “hello”. The array of flavors also captured my tiny little heart.
When I saw that they had a Vanilla tea, how could I not try it?
It’s lovely! I can’t say it’s my absolute favourite vanilla tea ever, but it has a strong vanilla smell and taste, and a prominent black tea flavor to back it up.
Like usual, I prefer these types of flavoured teas with a bit of milk and sugar, but the vanilla hit is strong enough that you can have it on its own, really.
I really enjoy this, but since it’s fairly pricey for a teabag type tea, I do have many other vanilla teas I prefer over it.

This is a nice flavored black tea. The flavoring is not very powerful, but that is fine with me.
Post-Steep Additives: none
Resteep: It was a sad and weak resteep that totally lost all the smoothness and dark black tea flavor. (3 minutes) not recommended for resteeping.
