Bird & Blend Advent Day 11 (11-December 2020)

This one smells so good in the dry sachet. Extraordinarily buttery. The steeped scent is also very buttery with a hint of old school puffed rice cereal.

There is a warming sweetness and at the very end of the tip I get a hint of toffee amongst the puffed rice. I am really enjoying this one and so is Lex! Woot. B&B just gets the rooibos blends.

We would consider ordering this one for sure. Also, I have so much going on caffeine seems to be affecting me and it never has before, so I may just need more delicious rooibos blends for the late night.

Hope there’s some of this one in the Boxing Day sale!

I’m so excited for their Boxing Day sale!

AJRimmer

Me too! I actually didn’t buy TOO much Black Friday tea, so I feel okay with a larger than usual Boxing Day order (:

Last time I tried to order, they had sold out of everything by the time I woke up… T.T

Courtney

Whaaat! I was chatting about that with Lex today, trying to determine what time I had to stay up until to ensure I had any sort of chance of what to order. :P

Courtney

AJRimmer, me too! I only ordered a very small amount from Teavivre, so I’d love to place a B&B order this time around.

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).
