Still trying all the new Cornelia Bean blends I got!
I really, really wanted to just LOVE this tea because I love rhubarb as a flavour so much. I do think this was a very solid fruit infusion, but it wasn’t quite the kismet that I was hoping for. I think the biggest thing for me personally was just that the taste of hibiscus was much stronger than the taste of the rhubarb. Rhubarb is also tart and, at times, pretty jammy so it makes sense to me to include hibiscus to amplify those elements. I just wish the balance was more even, at least?
The tail end of the sip and aftertaste were where this tea really sang, in my opinion. For a couple of reasons. Firstly, and I’m not sure how much if this is possibly in my head, I could have sworn I was tasting just a bit of vanilla/cream and y’all know how much I adore a rhubarb and custard flavoured tea so that softer, silkier note was a fantastic reprieve after the tangy, tart top notes and mid sip. Secondly, much of the hibiscus had passed by the back end which meant I got to taste more of that pure rhubarb flavour.
I feel like trying this cold brewed could potentially shake up the flavour distribution a little bit here (particularly the hibiscus levels), so I’m excited to try that next!!

Dexter had written on this tea that is was good iced. I rarely do iced teas so I brewed it up hot and found it was a bit too much hibiscus for me. Probably the hibiscus is much milder when iced so I should have known better . I did get a bit of rhubarb too.
Another cold brew of this one tonight – had a few glasses of this today and it was fantastic. Exactly what i needed after our morning bike ride. I have to say, i’m not sure if i’d call this rhubarb but it was tasty and so that’s all that really matters in summer with cold brews lol is it tasty? check. drink it! :)
