Looking for something black this morning, nothing unusual about that for me, and thought it might be nice to hunt out something new. I kept setting this one aside because it was an upopened sample and figure I needed to sip down a few more samples before I open a sealed one.. but this morning I caved. I wanted something new and with some spice, so this fit the bill.
Upon opening the package I get a sweet strange scent to the dry leaf, much like the smell from another pumpkin tea I have tried… thinking it must be how they add the pumpkin to tea.
Steeped I get the same sweet fragrance with a hint of spice. Not as spicy as I might have liked this morning, but an ok cup. I’m not sure yet about the pumpkin flavor in tea as so far it comes across a bit artificial to me… smells overly sweet and not a lot of true to pumpkin flavor. I think I may have underleafed this one a bit & would enjoy it more as a latte with a bit more kick… I will have to try it that way soon… and will rate it accordingly then.
I haven’t had many flavored chai’s yet, but have enjoyed a couple of interesting flavor combinations. Thanks MissB for sending this one my way.

It was a sample pack but I think I have some left. I’ll bring it for you today if I still have some. :)
Oh this is so cool. You two live near one another? Amazing!
Yes, we are pretty close together.. surprisingly. I think there are a couple of us in Indiana, but CelebriTEA is maybe 15 minutes from me. Just met for the first time today.
Yeah it was cool!
Wish you could have been here Miss B!
How are Nelson and your daughter?

Kidlets are great, both are doing their own thing right now. If I ever get down that way, I’m definitely coming to say hi and meet you both – give you a tea squeeze! :)

I’m not sure what you would come to our neck of the woods for MissB, but we would love to meet you if you ever would. I will do the same if my family ever venture your way. Until then.. Cyber hugs.
