1442 tasting notes

A.C. Perch Advent 2021 Day 4

I was a bit unsure of this tea because I’m not usually huge on ginger heavy teas unless I’m not feeling well. And then chili as well! I thought the spicy heat would be over the top.

How wrong I was! This company keeps impressing me. The tea was far more lemongrass forward, but all the flavours were very subtle and very smooth. It was a lovely cuppa and I downed it far too quickly!

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 5 min, 0 sec 3 g 14 OZ / 414 ML

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).
