Day 3 of Dammann Freres advent calendar. I am almost caught up :)
The dry tea smelled strongly of black licorice to me. I was a bit worried as that is not a good flavour for me. But I read the description of this tea and was a bit confused, becuase it still only smelled like black licorice.
The brewed tea smells like sweet toffee to me. It tastes like toffee. Maybe a bit like burnt caramel, I think that might have been what was giving me the licorice scent. I definitely get a short bread type biscuit or heavy pastry taste. To me there is a quick floral and candied fruit taste right at the beginning of the sip. As with some of the other reviews, I am not getting much orange blossom per se, but I do get a light floral flavour. Again this tea is thick and luxurious (stealing a note from Dinosara).

i like this one :) though it’s not my fav DF
I liked this one as well. Not my fav. How much water are you using for these sachets? I keep wavering.
I am using around 10oz I think. It seems to be working for me. Steep times around 2 minutes so far.
i glitch around toffee and caramel, can’t taste them at all unless it’s butiki. so this one did nothing for me =0(
justjames…sooo feel free to send me all your caramel and toffee teas that aren’t butiki lol
….sure! it’s the weirdest thing. i can taste notes that other people never get. i can taste ingredient 22 in the chocolte chip cookies. but no caramel. nothing.
haha
i have at least 3 i can send…..
