Teas & Tisanes

While we were up in the Blue Mountains we stopped off at Teas and Tisanes in Wentworth Falls on the way home.

Well... I went a little bit crazy in there I swear I was only going to buy one tea for Mum!

I got mum some Macadamia tea (black flavoured tea) which smells wonderful. As a Queenslander who loves her macadamias I'm sure she'll love it. A blend of China-Ceylon black teas, mixed with teh sweet nutty flavour of macadamia nuts. Superb with a drop of milk.

And for me... well... I limited myself to just 3 teas....

Saucey Fruit (I like things a bit Saucey!) - A fruity blend of papaw, mango, rosehip, hibiscus and blue cornflower. Delicious as an iced tea. (I haven't tried this one yet)

Japanese Evening Mist - Sencha green tea flavored with cornflower blossom, rose flowers and calendula. Very light and very yum. Just perfect for when you want a drink, but not anything strong.

And of course I couldn’t go home without some Blue Mountains tea – A subtle fruity flavour sprinkled with blue cornflowers, blended with black tea of China and Ceylon. This is a lovely change to the regular black tea that we usually drink, although I like quite a strong black tea, this is a little weaker than I'm used to.

Then on Saturday I went a little crazy at T2 buying canisters and spoons (we drink a lot of tea and coffee and go through about 12 teaspoons a day. I thought that if I have ones that stay in the canisters we wont need to use one each time we make a cup!).

I got 4 lovely canisters that look like they've been covered in a Japanese style print/paper. 4 different colours.
