Courtney drank Rooibos Earl Grey by Dammann Frères

1443 tasting notes

I am not an earl grey fan, but I keep this one for Lexa because she can’t handle caffeine at all. We just finished eating and she requested this tea as a latte. I made it up with simple (coconut) syrup, frothed almond milk, and vanilla sugar on the top. Then I took a sip and it was so good!

Alas, I made myself Mint Cacao from New Moon, so I will polish this off then make myself an earl grey latte as well and do a proper tasting note of it because I have some thoughts!

I loved the latte so much you can see it here: https://instagram.com/stories/biologistcourtney/24230270814774113061?utm_source=igstory_item_share&igshid=1dcdrjipeqfiu

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 (green preferable to red), herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens (mango or pineapple, yum!).

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).
