One small hammer or wooden mallet. This is an essential ingredient for truly enjoying this tisane.Harmony is a curious blend of cardamom, coriander, fennel, ginger, licorice and rose petals. I placed one teaspoon of this mix in a small plastic bag and smashed the daylights out of it with three hits of a wooden mallet. The aroma was powerful and made me smile. This is the only tea ever to remind me of sausage. I blame this on my Italian grandfather who used to make his own sausage several times a year; usually around the holidays. I can still remember the strong smell of fennel filing my grandmother’s dinning room and replacing the odors of homemade tomato sauce, peculiar meats and other Sicilian delicacies.
I experimented with tisane for a few weeks and found that the best beverage was the result of one teaspoon of tea steeped in eight ounces of water for four minutes.
The liquor has a golden color that tastes mostly of fennel and the body of the tea increases as it cools. Allow the tea cool a bit for increased enjoyment. What I like most about Harmony is its ability to taste slightly different with each sip. It will attack distinct regions of your mouth throughout the drinking experience.
This is a pleasant and interesting drink, but don’t forget your hammer. The tea is much lest stimulating without it.
