Origines Tea Advent Calendar _ Day 17
Celebration in the stars, so is this green tea blend called…but smelling it, “peperkoek” (for me, in Dutch), or “pain d´épices” (in French) comes to mind. At least for the dry tea leaves, as steeped the ginger (a whopping 19%) takes over. The brew tastes as a no alcohol grogg again, with the typical clove taste very present. A very christmassy tea blend, and a quite different one as well! Nice.

Bio

Introduced to tea by my sister-in-law in my country of birth = Belgium more than 30 years ago, I still love tea, mainly black, which I enjoy without sugar or milk. Having lived in UK, near good tea shops (e.g. Betty´s all over Yorkshire), I tend to buy most of my tea in bulk from tea shops (as such, most of these are not represented in my on-line cupboard). Nowadays, I live in Spain where tea gives me another sensatory bliss (as wine or beer or coffee can give me too).

Location
