Des-tea-nation Florence

Des-tea-nation Florence

A trip I took many years ago was to Florence. I have a bit of a fascination with architecture and wanted to see all the marvelous edifices. One building that really moved me was Il Duomo. How did Brunelleschi get the Dome to stay up?  I climbed that Dome examining the architecture the whole way.

Later, when I joined my father, I wanted to create a tea named after Florence. I thought one that was reminiscent of Nutella would be fun. So I mixed into black tea natural, chocolate flavors with hazelnut flavors. It seems that this tea is still standing too.
