I felt like something fruity and sugary, so I chose this.
Oh, this is honey alright—pure wild honey. It’s a musky, pollen covered, honeycomb dripping of honey one day old. The scent is like a sticky, sappy honey-coated pear so sweet and overripe it’s almost turning to brandy!
The taste is less brazen, more candy-sweet and “translucent” like a lollipop or pear jello. Underneath, the black tea base is toasty but sweet—as if the leaves have been so completely infused with the flavorings that they’re almost indetectable.
The tea is cooling now and I really am reminded of Middle Eastern desserts! Something about it reminds me of pistachios and saffron and rosewater…and syrupy baklava.
Yummy tea..I like it!

Boiling

The only pear I’ve tried was Celestial Seasonings white pear … I had high hopes for it, but it was kind of nasty and bitter. This sounds like an improvement.
Yeah, the CS White Pear is horrid!
