My 14 year old is delighted with her advent calendar this year!
Every day provides a different seasonal tea, such as: White tea lychee cocoa, Moroccan spice, Christmas cake, or even Candy cane, to name but a few.



How great is that!

>1 Sylak: Oooh, that sounds like fun!

How come I never get neat gifts like that? :=(

A dear friend sent me one from Adagio, and I'm enjoying a month of broadening my flavor horizons. My favorites still and always will be the good quality black teas sans flavoring: Adagio's English Breakfast and Golden Yunnan are both very good.

So far, she has enjoyed all the different flavour combinations each day, with the exception of the odd one or two which had garlic in the ingredients list, and just weren't to her taste first thing in the morning. ;)

I love these! I must admit, I cheat and buy them for myself at half price once Christmas is over!

>4 Sylak: I have never seen one of their teas with garlic in it. Not sure about that!

Oh neat! I like those things. They make me try stuff that I generally wouldn't. I found a good tea that also had coffee beans in it. I wasn't totally devoted to it though. It's been about 2-3 years and it still have some passed over teas in it. Bad me.
