Sipdown (1366)!
I ordered one sachet of every single tea from this company around a week or so ago, because it was shockingly cheap to do so and I love basically “speed running” through a company’s tea assortment – there’s no better way to get to know them!!
I asked on instagram which of the many samples I should try first and this was pretty strongly the one that people seemed more intrigued by – I get it, I spent most of the day eyeing up this sachet in particular, as well.

Steeped up, I feel like I can taste “the bones” of something good here – there’s a bit of a sweet and bright raspberry, a little cream, and it all seems like it should work well on this delicate white tea base. However, it’s ultimately very weak/mild. Like, I have to focus more than is ideal when sipping on a mug of tea to really nail down those flavours. I want to try one of two more of the sachets, but if this seems like a trend then I’ll scale back the amount of water I’m using for each sachet. So, until that point reserving judgement/critique – but just not the most “wow factor” starting point.
Oh a new shop! I’ll be interested to see what you think of other blends…
Considering placing a very same order just because tea bags to my collection :)
@Martin – not be an enabler, but the packaging is quite interesting and unique looking!
Certainly good to know :) And moreover a new teas to try, so… nothing that could go wrong, right?
