Our Review

Chef Jean Joho, formerly of Alsace and now of Chicago and Las Vegas fame, asked Mike to do a new dessert tea in 2011. This tea is inspired by fruits found in many Alsatian desserts. Many do love its bold fruity flavors. Mike describes it as " Paris on steroids".

Pour over ice!

Average Review:

Posted on Facebook wondering if any other Paris blend fanatics had recommendations for add'l loose leaf tea purchases - Mike Harney called this "Paris on steroids". Love it almost as much as Paris - but the loveliest surprise is that if, after brewed, you pour it over ice it is an AMAZING summer iced tea!

Shannon 4/4/13

One of the best

Average Review:

I was a little cautious in trying out this tea, mainly because the description gave it as having strong cherry flavours, and from past experience with "cherry flavour", I was worried it would taste like cough syrup. I was pleasantly surprised, though, when I opened the sample size packet. The smell was bright and fruity without being artificial or chemical. When I brewed a cup, it was absolutely lovely with milk and sugar. It definitely reminded me of the Paris tea, but with even stronger flavours, since it isn't made as mild with caramel or other flavours. I'll look forward to getting the full size next order~!

New Favorite Tea

Average Review:

Absolutely delicious, I went through the sample size so quickly that I just had to order more. This is my new favorite flavor, fruity and bold.

Benjamin 12/3/12

Very fruity

Average Review:

This tea is very fruity, More plum tasting than anything, but I can defiantly taste the cherry. This is another great tea by H&S

fruity

Average Review:

Sweet aroma. Probably also very good with a teeny bit of sugar and milk. I like the trace vanilla, it rounds out the flavors nicely.
