This is still tasty (and ~9 months old), but more of the cherry and currant is coming through.

That’s a great idea! I’m definitely excited for advent season!!

Courtney

I can’t wait! What advent(s) did you pick up!

AJRimmer

I ended up with 52teas, Brutaliteas, Kusmi, and the homemade advent swap! Though I drink the teas all year instead of trying to do them on the right days :P

Courtney

That works too! It’ll be so exciting to see everyone’s notes this year!

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, herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens.

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).
