Poesie Perfume Recently I fell hard for organic loose leaf tea and I can thank Poesie Perfume (and Vida Pour Tea) for this next collection in my pantry. Blends: Twice to Tea Mrs. Darcy Netherfield Fearless Geneva *incomplete collection not pictured or purchased is Ghost Story from the Mary Shelley’s Nightmare release. Twice to Tea *the tea that launched me on a tea loving journey into so many different flavours and a whole new collection to share. Who knew tea could taste this good!
Mrs. Darcy: ginger rose hibiscus rhubarb herbal tea (Ingredients: organic ginger, rose, hibiscus, hawthorne, rhubarb root) I'm finding more and more I adore anything with ginger and rhubarb together and here in this pink tinted tincture is one lovely marriage of flavours. I get the tartness from the rhubarb and hibiscus and a slight zing with the ginger and this is helping me clear the frosty blues nicely. It is also one drink I've been brewing to ward off the nasty colds and flu season and another blend marked down for future repurchase from Poesie (I hope there are more tea blends to come for the next season and fragrance collection). Curious Mixing: It's delightful with a twist of lime and honey! Netherfield: rooibos tea (Ingredients: rooibos, natural vanilla & almond flavor, pieces of apples, peach & raspberries, hibiscus) Marking one more tea blend down to carefully ration out (I'm kicking myself for not picking up more when I had the chance) as Netherfield is another combination that doesn't even taste like tea and is one I would highly recommend to anyone who is curious about trying delicious blends to be enjoyed ice cold or piping hot. This package creates a dark peachy pink brew that is fruity but refined, a little tart with the raspberries, peach and hibiscus but smooth and refreshing (something I'm going to be reaching for throughout the year). Fearless: apple spice chamomile tea (Ingredients: apple, hibiscus, rose petals, rosehips, chamomile, cinnamon chips) Now this is one heck of a good tea! Fearless smells divine in the bag alone with the sweet dried apple, chamomile and dusting of cinnamon and it's easy to go over the recommended teaspoonful as the bag is chocked full of tiny pieces of odds and bits of fruit, plants and flowers. It promises so much and delivers a perfectly tart sweet apple cinnamon delight that is a distinct rosy pink in my cup and I just made another and am thinking of a third. Highly recommend! Geneva: rosemary vanilla green tea (Ingredients: vanilla, rosemary, fair trade green tea) Ah, rosemary you are one herb that can do it all: season food, make my garden smell beautiful, clean the air, serve as a fine bath time component, ease headaches, be a unique perfume oil choice AND make a mighty fine tea ingredient. Oh this is nice and another blend I will be carefully rationing (the bags are very generously sized so luckily I don't have fear of running out anytime soon). For me Geneva is bliss and the perfect refreshing drink with some smooth vanilla (a kick of green tea) to allow me to relax, clear my mind and enjoy watching the blustery weather outside my window. This calls for some 19th-century themed reading. It's so difficult to choose a favorite out of all the above lovely creations but my top three are: Twice to Tea, Fearless, Mrs. Darcy AND Netherfield are tied for third in my book. They are all so good! Perfume: Creatures Comforts by Poesie Perfume (Listed Notes: "a pastry shop filled with sugar cookies, pumpkin pie, apple tarts, homemade marshmallows, + sticky toffee pudding") *a surprise free sample I found in my order, thank you so much Poesie Perfume! Some days you just want to smell like a pastry and Creature Comforts is one perfume I have been reaching for this autumn for an ultra cozy escape. When applied this oil is like waltzing up to a bakery counter and being given a hand wrapped freshly baked cookie with a dusting of flour on the bottom. That realistic aroma of (as I can only describe as one of my favourite treats to bake) a Russian tea cake cookie is divine in every fashion (it's ready for dipping into hot cocoa if I had any.) I don't want to leave that section but my nose is pulled next to apple turnovers with gooey golden toffee pudding mixed with marshmallows. My chemistry decides where my senses will stay at that point as the buttery toffee amps and the apple fades into sweet powdery marshmallows. Mmm...a definite keeper! *With many thanks to Poesie Perfume for kindly sending me these teas at a discount for sharing my honest thoughts. Poesie Perfume Comments are closed.
