A.C. Perch Advent 2021 Day 23

I left this a wee bit too long on the sidetable as I worked, so its’s more lukewarm than actually warm, however!

The taste is really lovely. I don’t know if I would call this a chai, but it’s really tasty. I wasn’t really in the mood for chai this morning, so I’m secretly happy the taste is more muted. There’s some spices in there, with the vanilla overlain. The taste of the rooibos is not intrusive and works well with the spices added. Also, the vanilla isn’t upsetting my stomach, which is often does in other teas. Finally, this is yet another smooth tea!

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 6 min, 0 sec 3 g 14 OZ / 414 ML

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).
