There is sooo much going on in this lovely blend it’s hard to know what to focus on first. On tasting Easter Egg Nest a handful of the ingredients barge through to the taste buds and start fighting for control, all holding their hands up, screaming me, me, me. Not one of these flavours wins out though, because they all combine in an unexpectedly glorious way to reveal a sweet, robust, flavoursome tea. To define this I’ll run through the key identifiers. The toasted rice is no doubt what provides the flavour akin to the classic egg nest cakes, making the two easily compatible for a pairing, but also providing a psychological linking, whisking you back to childhood. Secondly, there is a subtle chocolatey, slightly nutty element, no doubt provided by the cocoa and the chocolate chips. Finally, the marshmallows provide a delightfully sweet element to the flavour.
