Review of Berry Savoury Pie

Cup at home, made from a sachet included in the tea company's Advent Tea Calendar (2020) and containing a mixture of Rooibos leaves and pieces of cinnamon, apples, as well as of dried raspberries, blueberries and cranberries - all of them organic and sprinkled with flavouring. Pours nearly clear copper brown (against white china) with negligible sediment. Intense aroma of berries, with notes of Rooibos and touches of apples. Mild herbal onset of Rooibos leaves, giving way to dryish notes of berries and then sweetish touches of apples, ending with spicy cinnamon hints. Mildly astringent aftertaste. with touches of Rooibos and apple. Not bad! I had expected the berrylike notes to be a little stronger but I am satisfied with the beverage as is. Not an unreasonable price, given the context (ca. 5 DKK per 1 sachet in the collection). Thank you, Anni, for this gem!
