I first discovered Gotländskt äppelkakste (Gotlander Apple-cake tea) when I went to Visby for my honeymoon. I'd heard about Kränku from some of my Finnish friends and I was desperate to visit. It was everything I'd hoped. Oh, the smells! I highly recommend a visit should you find yourself on Gotland.
After probably an hour of sniffing teas, I left with several. This was the one that stuck with me. It's the one I had to get more of. But now I'm on my last bag.
It's sweet, with hints of apple, cinnamon and vanilla. It's absolutely lovely with milk. It's my relaxing in the afternoon tea. Nibbling on biscuits tea. Actually - it's good for pretty much any time except first thing in the morning. I've been keeping it in my moomin troll tin. I guess I'll need to find something else to put in that tin soon!
