Lately I've not been too fond of adding milk in my tea. No, don't think I'm going to refuse tea with milk in it. I certainly love my elaichi tea...very much, but not for a regular fix. Especially when I am winding my day up and getting set for bed, and a hunger pang kicks in, I prefer to have a light tea infused with some herbs.
So that's where my new found love for Newby Saffron tea comes in.
Saffron being one of the most sought after and healing spice, it renders a sweet and spicy aroma to black tea which quite captivates the senses and puts it to deep rest. It truly is a moment to have this one.
For those who really like Saffron, this tea is for you. If you brew it longer, the tea does get a bit dark, so I suggest 3 mins of brewing is all you need to get a mildly spiced tea without the darkness of the tea overcoming the delicateness of the spice.
The tea bag comes sealed in a golden foil package which makes sure the aromas are not lost which is much favoured over the regular paper packaged tea bags as some of them tend to catch some mould if left uncared for in humid conditions.
This tea is truly world class, if you are a tea lover do not miss trying this out. They have a great variety of delicate flavours and you will not be less than impressed. You have my word for it.
This tea is slightly more expensive as you all know saffron comes from a flower which releases only three stigmas, the filaments, which is carefully handpicked.
It is widely used for it's therapeutic properties and as a luxurious spice to lend aromas in delicacies like biryani and mughlai cooking to mention just a few.
I like to watch the world rush by while sitting in my balcony and sipping from my favourite cup. It's rather heavy but it's big and so earthy. It's my favourite mugga! :)
And I have added in this pic of a box that I am craving right now. Isn't it most perfect to store all your precious tea bags in?
