Another sample from VariaTEA! Thanks!

This one is another fruity tea that while, tasty, the fruits are somewhat difficult to distinguish. I would say there’s a rhubarb quality and I think I’m getting a hint of strawberry. It’s definitely tasty though, and I like the black and green base.

I started steeping this when my grandmother called and accidentally steeped for waaaay over time, and it’s a-okay. That’s definitely a point in its favour!

Lex could smell is from the other end of the couch and swooped in to have half my cup XD. Lex says she’s tasting a lot more mango with strawberry.

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).
