This is pretty much the same blend as Upton’s Mélange Nöel (minus a spice or two), but sadly it’s nowhere near as good. The tea in general is a little watery, and most of what I taste is orange, cinnamon, and rose. The almond isn’t noticeable, and neither is the tea! It tastes more like an herbal blend. If this were more intense I’d like it much better—maybe I should try extra tea in my next cup.
This is You :-D

Bio
Elizabeth, college student, anthropology major, bio and history minor. I love to travel and try new foods (and teas!). I also enjoy music, books, video games as often as I can get my hands on them.
I loved tea as a kid, didn’t drink it for about ten years, and then rediscovered it a couple of years ago. Tea sometimes helps me feel better when chronic illness is making things hard. It’s also fun to experiment with!
I’m still pretty new to the types and brands of tea out there, but I’m interested in trying some of everything. My favorites are earl greys, yunnans, medium-bodied oolongs, Japanese greens, fruit, vanilla, and floral flavors (especially jasmine and rose). My least favorites are teas that are overly smoked, bitter, or contain strong hibiscus or orange peel.
