2021 sipdown no. 64

Sad sipdown of this this evening. We went on a wee drive to get some fresh air and I had just steeped this when we decided on the drive, so I poured it in my ceramic travel mug and off we went.

This is definitely one I made a mistake not putting in my most recent order, but alas, it will go in the next. The biscuit and chocolate flavour is so perfectly balanced and light, yet apparent. Just delightful.

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 4 min, 30 sec 3 g 14 OZ / 414 ML

I’ll have to remember for our next swap! Although my DF list to buy is growing, I don’t know when I’ll be ready to spend that amount haha!

I love DF but that 100g minimum size is a killer. :(

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).
