Story

Cream was one of the legendary rock groups whose influence is still found in the much of the music written since its demise in 1969. Together for three years, the band is mostly remembered for such classics as Strange Brew and Sunshine of Your Love. At its peak, its popularity was equal to that of the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. The most illustrious of the group's alumni is of course Eric Clapton, who went on to a successful carrier with Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominos, as well as many solo projects.

"The cream is not a subtle tea~ that said, it's an excellent dessert or blending base tea. It has a strong nose, evocative of dulce de leche, or even butterscotch~ the first time I made it my 7 year old walked in the room and asked if i was making pancakes. It works well on it's own if you want a heavier, sweet flavored tea- the only caveat being it isn't likely to be something i'd drink several cups in a row of. A bit of cream & sugar would make it a lovely brew for a cold morning on an empty stomach, and if you're looking for something to divert your sweet tooth, this would be the perfect choice. Again, i think it's best asset lies in it's ability to work as a strong base that melds well with just about anything; bearing in mind it's a strong aroma, and when blending you might want to overcompensate anything more subtle in order to keep the cream from overpowering it. Brew anywhere from 2-5 minutes, depending on the strength of tea you like; at near but not actually boiling."

"This tea makes me happy. It's not so much a tea tha tastes like cream, it's more like a tea that tastes like soft, and sweet, and when you put cream in it it does this wonderful mellowing thing that you simply have to try. Even more than most of the flavored ceylons, this one is awesome blended with other tastes. "

"I could drink this tea all day long. A touch of milk really brings out the creaminess. This tea is ultra soothing."
