Sadly no re-order of this one either as the perfume-like/floral essence is not my favourite.

So much orange blossom! I tried it as a milk tea the other day and it was better, but still a lot ha ha.

Courtney

Aww, well at least I’m not alone in my thoughts on this one!

I finished mine this morning, but somehow I do not get lots of orange blossom from it. I must be a bad taster…

Courtney

That’s wonderful ashmanra — tea can be so subjective, but I hope you enjoy!

Bio

I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos, herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens.

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).
