Snow & Sunshine Tea Party ~ WHY WE LOVE THE GOSSAMER TEAROOM!!!

Our Dear Friend Betty at the Gossamer TeaRoom has gifted us with another one of her deliciously delightful blog posts! Wont you join us for A Snow & Sunshine Tea Party...




Excerpt: "...Two nights ago, on the final night of March, my Mr. V and I were ensconced here alone in The Tearoom, waiting for our very late season snow storm to begin (which we hope is our last.) I was craving warmth and the sunshine of spring so much when I brewed one of Opus Oils’ Jitterbug Perfume Parlour Teas, Island Girl. And at 10 pm, under a cold sky of white, I found the sunshine I was looking for in this tea!..." (Click Link To read entire article Gossamer TeaRoom)

ABSINTHE & DREAMS TEA PARTY AT THE GOSSAMER TEAROOM

Thanks so much to Betty over at THE GOSSAMER TEAROOM for the lovely and creative review of our ABSINTHE Tea!

Here's an excerpt:

... "This tea starts out with strong tannic notes, but the next note is a divine, complex combination of herbal, flowery and creamy notes, with just a touch of anise flavor. At this point, I added a bit of sugar to bring out these notes even more. (Of course you may add whatever sweetening you prefer, but I find white sugar is more neutral in flavor.) The black tea adds the rich, resinous base, followed up with the green herbal notes from the pear and violet leaf absolute, the deeply floral violet, the creamy, but exotic note of the vanilla and anise seeds for a final note of absinthe; a unique and luxurious experience. This is a tea to be savored, sipped slowly and as they say it is “extremely addictive”! This tea was delicious hot and they do suggest serving it iced as well. I’m certain that sipping it iced on a hot summer night would be a decadent experience!"
