Well… this is the kind of tea my father would like – and it’s not a compliment here ;-)
He is 65+ years old lovely chap, who loves regular black tea with sugar. I’m not sure if he can appreciate the difference between amazing quality oolong and Lipton black tea.
For him anything that’s sweet – it’s good.

And this is how I view this tea. Sweet rooibos. I would have never guessed I’m supposed to feel Sticky Dates or sticky toffee pudding if I haven’t read it on the packaging.
I find rooibos teas mostly disappointing, and it was no exception. It’s not life changing in any way.

On a positive note, it’s pretty strong rooibos, so you can brew it at least twice.

Yes, a shame – one of a biggest disappointments of the 2020 T2 Advent Calendar so far. But each to their own, I know there are many people who love rooibos and love sweet simple flavours :-)

Hi there, I’m Anna! I’m a lawyer currently living in Cambridge, UK. Tea is my biggest hobby and the only thing I consume without fail every day. Probably between 6 and 12 cups/mugs/buckets of tea a day.

I prefer my tea smoking hot and without milk or sugar.
Actually, I take it back, the best ‘cheer me up’ beverage is black tea with honey and lemon. Handed to you by someone you love and who says everything will be fine.

Favorite Purveyors:
Kusmi
Paper & Tea
Moya

Teas I love and could die for: Moroccan mint, Genmaicha, Green jasmine, White tea, Earl grey, Darjeeling, Mate and Macha

Teas I hate with a passion: fruit teas, rooibos, chai, roasted mate

My guilty pleasure is having high tea experiences in posh places around Cambridge. It’s so worth it.
