Well, I deserved a treat today. I have passed that awful Mathematics exam. What a close call! But nobody will ask me again. Now, let’s pass another Mathematics. We have two courses of them. Ah dang.

But to this tea. As pancakes are quite rare as breakfast here where I live… moreover maple bacon ones; I truly had no idea what to expect. But I had maple bacon before and I remember liking it very much!

First of all, this tea smells divine. Quite on sweet side — mostly the maple syrup and some salty-smokey note.

Brewed, with two teaspoons / 300 ml; it smells okay first, but after approx. 3 minutes of steep it was pretty nice. Quite rooibos forward, but there are some smokey notes again. But gentle. Certainly it’s not too smoky blend.

After steeping and during the sips I truly noticed the pancake flavour with sweet-meaty bacon flavours. A bit sweeter for me, but afterall, it’s maple bacon. I am used to enjoy salty bacon. I think it is pretty much a good example of promised tastes. I can understand it is not a cup for everyone, but I can imagine finishing it easily.

Thank you everyone!
Silent Kettle: Certainly an interesting blend; shame it’s gone now. Maybe I could send you a little bit to try :) Let me know if something else in my cupboard sparkled your interest.
