“This is a nice dessert tea full of vanilla flavor. I'm so glad I tried it because it's a wonderful tea, but I don't think I'll be buying it again. Overtime the vanilla gets a little over powering.”
“When I first received this tea from Plum Deluxe, I had to check the description on their website to see what the flavors are. It smelled so familiar but I couldn’t put my finger on it. It’s listed as a vanilla creme brulee tea, which sounds amazing, and vanilla I could see but I wasn’t getting any creme brulee vibes. Even after having a cup, I still don’t think I experienced creme brulee. Not exactly, anyway.
But oh my goodness, what I did experience was magic. Don’t laugh. This is going to sound pretty ridiculous to most grown-ups – and maybe it’s just nostalgia talking here – but this tea smells and tastes just like Chocolate Chip Pop-Tarts. My favorite Pop-Tarts growing up. Maybe even my favorite Pop-Tarts of all time. My brother and I, we would pop them in the microwave for just a few second longer than we reasonably should have, so that the inside was lava-hot and oozing and the crust was bordering on burnt but not and eat them while they were burn-your-fingers (and mouth and tongue and cheeks) hot. I remember like yesterday the chocolate dripping down the corners of my mouth, a molten river of bliss burning down down down.
So like I said, maybe it’s nostalgia, but this tea took me back and I loved every last drop of it. I tasted vanilla and chocolate and even the pastry with its sweet, burnt edges. Maybe that’s the creme brulee I thought I was missing. This, to me, is a true dessert tea. I love a good vanilla tea, but this surprised me and gave me much more than I was expecting.
Many many thanks to Plum Deluxe for reminding me of a happy memory from my childhood and bringing me a tea that truly put a smile on my face.”
“I just gave this to friend as a housewarming present and her reaction was, “Literally the most delicious tea ever.” An awesome gift – either for a friend, or for yourself! You deserve a treat, too…”
“This was super yummy and did taste just like Creme brûlée! Sweet, Carmel, vanilla is what stands out for me. I enjoy hot with frothed milk for a special sweet tea.”
“I love this tea! It's one of my favorite breakfast go-to blends, since it has some sweetness but isn't overly sweet. It goes well with most pastries and breakfast items.”
