When I opened today’s slot on the advent calendar, before I could see the name of the tea, I could see the orange wrapper and I knew I wouldn’t be drinking it. Rooibos! Blech.
It was a citrus rooibos, so I decided in its place I would drink a different citrusy Dammann tea, but I wanted one that was unlikely to show up in the calendar. That ruled out any of the “Nöel” teas, and also likely Gôut Russe Douchke, so I went with this one, which is blood orange, rose, and raspberry. Close enough!
This tea is very tasty, and I love how the way the orange, rose, and raspberry play together. I might say the raspberry is the most prominent note, but none of them really take over too much. It works.

It’s totally fine, don’t worry about it! I have a friend at work that likes rooibos and I am happy to pass them along to her and spread the love. :)
awe poor rooibos…
What a strange rooibos it was… Cola and citrus flavor?
Oh wow this sounds amazing. Orange and raspberry is one of my favourite flavour combinations.
Uh oh. I think I sent you a rooibos or two. I’m sorry! :(

Oh, phew. The ones from Janet are actually super mild wrt the woody flavour. Hope your friend likes them. :)
