Cup at home, made from a sachet included in the tea company's Advent Tea Calendar (2020) and containing a mixture of leaves of black tea (Ceylon?), pieces of cinnamon, ginger, and apple, as well as vanilla pods and cardamom - all of them organic and sprinkled with flavouring. Pours nearly clear darkish copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of vanilla, apples and cinnamon. Rather bitter flavour of black tea leaves, with spicy notes of ginger and cinnamon and touches of tart apples and vanilla. Astringent aftertaste of black tea with notes of ginger and cinnamon. A nice tea for all apple and cake lovers, just like me, but it tastes far less sweet than the scent leads one to believe it would. Not an unreasonable price, given the context (ca. 5 DKK per 1 sachet in the collection). Thank you, Anni, for this gem!
