after midnight / oh canada

the last time i visited david's tea on mont-royal, i tried "after midnight", a flavoured black tea. from the description, it seems to have been released for valentine's day.



the tea leaves have an intense citrus aroma. once infused, the smell of chocolate is brought out. drinking this, the tea is very "warm", which is why this is part of the "winter collection". it tastes like those orange-flavoured dark chocolates.

at the time, it was during the winter olympics, so the tea shop was promoting "oh canada", a rooibos tea.



yes, those are colourful little maple-leaf candies.

i confess that i am not a big fan of rooibos in general, but i do like the maple sweetness with this "oh canada" mix.
