Cherry Almond Gunpowder from 52Teas. . . .

Cherries typically are paired with chocolate which is delicious but I have to say I’m more of a nut kind of gal. So when 52Teas released this Cherry Almond Gunpowder Tea, I was like- take my money now!

Cherry Almond Gunwpoder from 52Teas is a handblended tea with a green tea (gunpowder) base with dried cherries and sunflower seeds added in along with natural flavors.  First whiff of this, you definitely come away with this nutty robust aroma.

Brewed with water prepped right under boiling and allowed to brew for 3 minutes, this tea just kept giving off these nutty notes that kept me standing attention by the kitchen timer. I eagerly awaited that beeping noise telling me my tea was ready to go.

After the tea cooled for a few moments, I took my first sip. I have to say this tea is quite dynamic.

Rich strong smoky flavors came across while being entangled with this sweetness from the cherries while the sunflower seeds marvelously  round out the nutty tones.  I can’t say that I’m getting almond but I’m extremely happy with the flavors I am getting.  With the gunpowder tea being the base,  this tea has this robustness that brilliantly works against the sweeter tones.

Being the fan of gunpowder teas that I am, I will say I was a bit hesitant about this blend.  I wasn’t sure how  the cherries would play along side the richness of the green tea, but wow is the flavor profile for this tea just magnificent.  . So much so I even emailed 52Teas and asked how much of this tea was in stock because I wanted to purchase whatever they had left.

Sorry to all that didn’t get to try this tea because I bought the rest of what 52Teas had to offer.  It was a beauty!
