Another fine inuit herbal tea!
Again, I am so happy and amused by the tea of Délice Boreal, that I find myself wondering where to start my description.
So, lets start at the name. “Ukiurtatuq” is the name of the teaplant.
This, in my dialect/language, has something to do with winter. Greenlandic and inutitut are somewhere as far and as close as Danish and Sweedish. If that wasn’t bad enough, our words can have various meaning after what context it is in. So, to not make any big blunder – I’ll just say that the name is something about winter ;)
And WINTER-ish it is.
The smell of cinnamon leads your thoughts back to christmas, of very sweet cakes from the bakery, and stormy nights. The tea itself is sweet and a little sharp in the back of the mouth. Not as sharp as labrador, but it is notable.
I love these teas (From delice) because its made of herbs and tea that grows in my town.
So it gets a good rating by me.
Sipdown! 76/365
I had bought a bunch of teabags from this company while in Ottawa a few years back. In retrospect, I don’t know why, because I generally hate herbals. However, this one wasn’t too bad. Dominantly minty, but there were enough supporting flavours to make it palatable for me. I suspect this is a fantastic tea for those who like minty herbals, if I dislike them and think it’s ok!
