I wonder if, beyond synesthesias, evoked feelings and just plain good
combinations, it might be partly due to amino acids and sugars from the
bread enhancing the tea, and proteins or whatever binding astringent
elements? Breads of many kinds really go seem to go well with tea of
many kinds. Alas, I have yet to find a tea to accompany pretzels (which
I shouldn't eat anyway). Any recommendations?
