Hmm, the floral here is just too much for me. It’s more in the scent than the actual flavour, and I’m sure someone else might really enjoy this. I want so much to enjoy this tea, but sadly, I really don’t. The Gui Fei from Butiki I recall enjoying. I was hoping for more honey here, but alas, I can’t seem to find it. There is the oolong mineral-ness, but it’s very faint and seems to add nicely to the tea.

I steeped this with 3g of tea for 2 minutes. I’ll resteep a couple times to see if I can find some different flavours.

On the upside, we just took vegan and gluten free mint things out of the oven to cook, and we’re watching Star Wars!

I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos (green preferable to red), herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens (mango or pineapple, yum!).

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).
