Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Slowly sipping a delightful cuppa tea on a cold morning – or lazy afternoon – is one of the best feelings I can think of. That little touch of comfort, rich with sweet, natural flavors, fruit, and spices. And every time I take a sip of Harney & Sons Celebration Tea, that’s exactly what I’m doing: Celebrating existence.
So, if you’re ready for a delightful cuppa, read on for flavor, aroma, and the best ways to experience this delectable tea.
What’s the Aroma Like on Harney & Sons Celebration Tea?
The aroma of black tea hides under the sweet, fruity aroma brought on by the apricot and plum of the CelebrationTea from Harney & Sons. The longer you sit with the cup, the deeper the aroma sinks into your senses. I like taking several strong whiffs before indulging in a sip to bring out the flavor more as I drink.
What’s the Flavor Profile of Harney & Sons Celebration Tea?
While the ingredients list includes strong flavors like cinnamon spice and passion plum, the tea leans more into the apricot flavor than anything else. The other flavors (also included: hazelnut and blue cornflower) are hiding just under the surface.
The hazelnut gives a hint of a nutty edge that other apricot teas lack. And the plum favor adds just a touch of something different as well. Many folks won’t taste the subtle nuances, but those who love to linger over a cuppa can smell the subtle differences and find those flavors as a deepening experience over this tea.
What Service Notes and Suggestions Do You Have for Harney & Sons Celebration Tea?
Harney & Sons Celebration Tea is best enjoyed as hot tea. It works okay as an iced tea, but you lose a lot of the depth of flavor by chilling it.
This delightful tea is also best as a stand-alone tea, but it works well when served with subtle flavors. I wouldn’t go with anything strong or the tea will be overpowered. And something light with cinnamon can help pull out that cinnamon flavor of the tea.
Overall Thoughts on Harney & Sons Celebration Tea
Harney & Sons Celebration Tea has become one of my go-tos for a relaxing cuppa something that’s not quite dessert but not “plain” tea that I might drink every day. I usually go through a tin every few months, spreading out the celebration of life in each cup. And every time I come to it, I’m grateful for the reprise from the rest of the world.
