Hot: This is my least favourite of the carcadet blends we ordered. It’s not not good, but the taste isn’t my personal favourite. The piña colada flavour is really on point, but for some reason I feel that with the hibiscus-rosehip the flavours are clashing instead of complementing.

Chilled: The flavours are more muted when chilled. I would say the coconut comes forward the most, with that sweetness of what really makes that piña colada flavour. The hibiscus is more mellowed here and not in as much competition with the coconut/pineapple.

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, apricot, 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.

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