I’m skipping B&B’s advent today of Rhubarb & Custard. Another blend I only have a tiny bit remaining.
A sample from my order a couple months ago. It’s a tea I’d drink for free but probably wouldn’t pay for. I love raspberry but this is more hibiscus than raspberry. Luckily I didn’t notice the mint here, I’d rather it be full raspberry. I did guzzle it down so fast with my dinner though that I had time for a second steep the same night. That’s something I hardly ever do… usually the second steep is left for the next night. The blend somehow dries my mouth right up, so maybe that is why I drank it so quickly. But Harney can do better than this one!
Steep #1 // 20 minutes after boiling // 1-2 minute steep
Steep #2 // 2-3 minute steep

Haha, sure – “tea-guzzler” would certainly be a more interesting handle! I’m trying to fit a ton of sipdowns into the December last minute crunch time to meet my goal for the year, which means more tasting notes from me than usual. :D
I love Rhubarb & Custard, it’s definitely going to be part of my next order once my cupboard is under control.
Might have to change your name to tea-guzzler if you keep up this pace. :P

Tea Sipper sounds much more refined. Tea Guzzler is more like the cookie monster of tea drinking IMO, which I find amusing. Good luck on your sipdowns!
