Courtney drank Green Apple/Elderflower Tea by A.C. Perch's Thehandel

1373 tasting notes

A.C. Perch Advent 2021 Day 13

The flavouring is not overwhelming or in-your-face. I’m not completely able to detect which flavours these are, which could be user error. There does seem to be a slight sourness around the edges of the tongue, which could be green apple. There is a slight chalkiness, but I lowered the steep time to 4 minutes and it seems to have helped a bit (last night I did a 5-minute steep and the chalkiness was more apparent).

Preparation

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).
