Tastes Like: black truffle, damp peat, grilled banana, percolator coffee
Feels Like: a majestic mountain lodge

This multi-faceted black tea combines layers of smoke, sweet grilled banana, and sharply fragrant black truffle. The aroma alone overtakes your senses, while the taste draws you deeper into its kaleidoscopic trance. Milk enhances the caramel banana sweetness. Add a touch of booze for a wild and wonderful hot toddy. Recommended for lovers of campfires, scotch and mezcal.

Smokey Banana? YES PLEASE
I was looking for fruity tea's and saw the Black Lodge Smokey Banana. I thought .... what??? banana flavored tea and "smokey" that sounds strange. I decided to buy a sample size because the name had me curious. I absolutely loved it and have purchased it twice now. This one will wow you !!!!

Smokey sweetness
The description of this tea says its recommended for lovers of campfires, scotch and mezcal and that's a great description. There is a smokey flavor too it and the banana adds a bit of sweetness. For me this isn't an everyday tea, but I love pulling it out when I'm in the mood for something different.

Full flavor
I love the strong black full flavor teas. Yes, AU’s Smoky Breakfast is another of the best examples. This Black Lodge is a winner also. I look forward to the smile and feeling I get from the first sip of the day. Adding a flavor, banana, vanilla etc. without covering up the real thing is perfect. I can enjoy some of the tea drinks later in the day but mornings I don’t want anything to interfere with the pure flavor of the tea. Spot on.

Don't let the banana fool you into thinking this tea isn't for you. You'll be pleasantly surprised by this one, I guarantee it! It's easily turned into one of my favorites. It's black tea and taste like black tea, but it has a creative, unpredictable flavor that's unforgettable. I went through the All The Teas sampler and this is one of a few I went to repurchase!
