Another finished tea today, and because it was single session sample from Kaylee not counted as a sipdown, though reduced from my cupboards. Thank you!
Although I am not a coffee drinker, I was somehow craving this tea. When I have opened the pouch, I knew it was a proper choice today. And it was rather the hazelnut than the coffee. I steeped it shortly, 3 minutes sounded enough for me; and I got just a lovely hazelnut cup with no bitterness from coffee. Honestly haven’t noticed that at all.
Also not much of the cake notes, it was rather like some hazelnut mousse or something, creamy and mild.
I finally bit the bullet and ordered it. Of course, I couldn’t resist adding a few extra tea samples into the order for me to enjoy while I wait for December 1st to roll around – the advent hype this year is VERY real. To start, I’m sipping down the sample of Hazelnut Coffee Black – a black tea that was kindly included as a freebie with my order! It’s very delicious, and what I appreciate the most is that it’s an amazing hazelnut tea WITHOUT the addition of chocolate. Controversial take, I know, but I really do think hazelnut is better as a standalone flavour.
Though this year’s updated packaging was a huge selling point, it was actually the earlier release date that was the deciding factor for me – I hate gambling with late November holiday shipping when it comes to buying advents from companies outside of Canada…
What advents will you be doing this December!? Tea or otherwise!

I was thinking of getting the Advent calendar from The Tea Practitioner, but they were sold out. To my knowledge, that’s the only company doing an unflavoured calendar this year. Anyway, I have lots of nice tea to drink during December!
I’ve got Snarky and 52teas, don’t remember if I managed to snag any others in time.
That IS a really cute tin from Plum Deluxe… that you can then store other teas in when the Plum Deluxe teas are gone.
The hazelnut and cinnamon are working together here, and I’m definitely picking up a coffee cake from this tea. There is serious hazelnut flavor – it’s lingering at the back of my tongue between sips, and it’s absolutely the dominant scent. If this shows up on the website, I may need more!
Plum Deluxe Advent, Day 3
Flavors: Cake, Cinnamon, Hazelnut
It might not have any coffee flavor. Coffee cake is just cake that goes well with coffee where I am from, so maybe hazelnut and cake would be all you would taste. It sounds like a good tea!
