Thanks so much to OMGsrsly for passing some of this down! I was a little afraid of this one from the beginning when I read that there’s jasmine in here, but luckily, I cannot taste or smell it at all.

But what I do smell in the bag is Turkish Delight and cake! The cake is subtle but it definitely teases you. It’s not at all like your flavoured teas from David’s, or Della Terra, or H&S, but rather, the flavours are natural.

Flavour? Oh yeah, Turkish Delight! The almond is very subtle but I don’t mind that at all. I’m also enjoying this without any additives because why ruin a good thing.

I’ll admit, when all the Fauchon reviews started rolling in, I thought they might be overpriced and overrated, but honestly, they’re better than I thought they would be.

If only Winners would stop being stupid faces and start carrying Fauchon again.

MissB said every few months they’ll get more Fauchon teas in. Yay!

Glad you enjoyed this one. I wasn’t too sure to begin, but it’s grown on me. I love it!

Good to know! I went the other week and their shelf was packed full of random teas I never even heard of. Makes me wonder what they’re like but it’s still a risk.

Wait! Winners stocks tea? I need to get out more.

I didn’t know either until it was announced somewhere in the discussions section. Who would have thought, eh? Especially since the stores always looks so… messy and disorganized.

Yay, someone else who gets Turkish delight out of this one. I really like this one.
