This tea is a cup of holiday cheer captured in fragrance and flavor. The base is a smooth, full-bodied black tea that offers warmth and depth, making it the perfect canvas for festive notes. Sweet almond essence lends a nutty roundness, soft and comforting, while vibrant cherry provides a fruity lift with a gentle tart edge. The combination is harmonious — at once rich, aromatic, and refreshing. Brewed, it yields a ruby-tinged infusion with a delightful aroma that evokes holiday pastries and mulled fruit compotes. Each sip is layered: robust tea, subtle nuttiness, and a kiss of fruit, balancing indulgence with brightness. This blend is crafted to warm winter afternoons, turning simple teatime into a celebration of the season.
Afternoon Tea: Serve with festive biscuits, almond cookies, or fruitcake.
Cheese Pairings: Pairs beautifully with mild cheeses, where the cherry notes offer contrast.
Holiday Mornings: A warming brew to accompany breakfast pastries like croissants or panettone.
Gifting: The festive tin makes it a thoughtful holiday present for tea lovers.
