Southern Pecan Black Tea

Although I like a good, strong tea, this tea was just too overpowering for me. I gave it to some co-workers who love it!

Absolutely love this tea. It's very fragrant and tasty. White chocolate is barely there, but adds a nice touch. The bag is a good size and will last a while

Delicious

This tea has a different flavor from most flavored teas. It is of course beause of the additions to get the advertised flavor. Some people might not like it but I really do. It makes a great alternative flavor experience from the typical flavored teas. The quality of the tea itself is also high. This is one of those teas that you look forward to brewing. I use a coffee press for my tea. Lets me make a good three or four servings. As I noted was good enough for me to want to re-order it. Some things to consider: 1) different experience. Nice to have a different experience in the cupboard though I actually dring this about 50% of the time. Other tea I drink is the appricot. 2) wife said she liked the smell. 3) friend said he liked the tea. 4) a tea you look forward to making. I have not tried all the Elmwood Inn teas, just the appricot and this one. Maybe I will venture into another but I really like these two. Hail Flavius!

My new go to tea. I like a nice black tea in the morning and I'm fond of nutty and berry tastes but not sour. This is a wonderful fragrance when opening the bag. You feel like you want to scoop it up by the handful and eat it (I tried it, don't do it) it smells so good. I find to get enough of the added flavorings to come through I need to steep about 2-3 minutes longer than usual. (for black, I do 5 minutes in my Breville Teamaker, for this I do 7.5 or 8) - if you like it milder, then steep less. If you are steeping in a pot, I suspect it would be less. I don't usually like white chocolate to eat, but this adds a nice mild suggestion of sweetness to the nutty pecans and the berry flavor. It is a nice broken leaf, there is very little sandy smaller particles of tea leaves.
