I added this to my paper and tea order because Ros and Martin liked it so much. Sorry to say the tea has changed formulas and the fig flavor is no longer there. I had hopes that the black currant flavor was of similar quality, but although it does taste like berries, there is a weird after taste that is not pleasing. They use bourbon vanilla flavoring in a bunch of their teas, I’m wondering if that is the offending flavor. Its going into the give away box.

Flavors: Black Currant

Nooo! The fig was the unique element of this tea!

Definitely disappointed in the lack of figgy flavor here.

I was in their store in Lepzig and saly I have to confirm they changed the formula from fig to black currant. I have a sample, so I will definitely test it out, but I am sad about it for sure.

I started drinking more tea about 10 years ago when I found that even my half -caf coffee was making me jittery and then sleepy after the caffeine wore off. While I started out with mostly Teavana, but soon expanded my tea cupboard to include lapsang souchon, pu-erh, Assam, and other strong black teas. I do enjoy oolongs, green, and other teas, as well as a nice tisane for an evening cuppa.
I’m not fond of jasmine or bergamont teas, though I’ll try anything once.
I am an avid traveler, hiker, soccer player/watcher.
I love trying new tea in new places, if you see something in my cupboard you want to try, hit me up for a swap!
