Side note for my brother – ITS VEGAN! :)
Smell from bag – DROOL OMG Divine!
Slightly Tart Citrusy – Buttery – Creamy – Dreamy.
Water is about to boil and I am about to steep I am literally feeling my mouth water up with anticipation!
This had better be good lol.
This is my second flavor from 52Teas and the first one did NOT disappoint!
Oh and I am using my “big” teapot for the first time ever, because I have super high hopes. :)
I only wish honeybush did not have such a long steep time!
YAY its done!
Smell in cup: YUMMY makes me want to burn my mouth!
Its actually REFRESHING! how can that be? Its SO not good for you with all this cream, butter, candy like flavor…hummm….I get the orange or is it cranberry on the sides of my cheeks, MOUTH cheeks that is. Also on the mid part of the tongue, creamy on sides of tongue, this is a treat for the taste buds with different flavors and textures bouncing off one part to the other. I have not had honeybush before so I am not sure what to expect from it – not getting a typical “tea” flavor of any kind.
No astringency, no after taste, excellent flavorings!
I find the buttery flavor coming through now on the aftertaste but it does not linger and that is good. Makes me want another sip but does not “turn” into something terrible.
Its odd – every sip brings something a little different – now I am getting the butter in the full mouth.
I am anxious for the next cup which I will let cool down some to see how it tastes that way then will add some sweetener to the next cup to try that as well. This is one I want to play around with BUT is perfection just as is!
You know if you are worried about flavored teas or “sweet” teas this is not going to disappoint you at all! Its not sappy or sticky sweet and there is no lingering negative flavor additive effect OR sugar effect.
Very pleasant all the way around.
ahhhh I can’t wait until I get this
Did you order some yet?
Yes, it should be here on Thursday!
Yay! :)
