Advent Day 1
My last minute advent purchase arrived yesterday! Just in time!!! There was a glitch on the website when I ordered and I accidentally purchased two. I have to run to FedEx to drop off the extra so I can get the $70 double charge back, but I digress.
I lean more towards black teas, so I’m always pleasantly surprised when I find a green tea that I like. This tea has a very bright crisp (but not grassy and sharp) flavor to it that stands on it’s own in the citrus ginger flavors. All the flavors play well together. Probably not something I’d buy, but I’d drink another cup if it was offered. I didn’t see the small steeping instructions of 80c for 4m and I’m kinda glad I didn’t because 1 minute produced a very enjoyable cup.
Whew, 70 bucks is quite a lot, especially when it was “just a glitch”.
Part of my hesitation of buying it was the price, but I figured it would cost the same to buy it from Fauchon and have it shipped from Europe. I’m not at all okay with paying for it twice! Hopefully I get a refund soon!
