Courtney drank Chestnut by Lupicia

This tastes like candied chestnuts because there is a sweet scent and sweetness to the taste. The green base is not my favourite — it’s almost fishy (this is not the exact correct word, but I can’t come up with something better) in the scent (though not in the taste). The combination of these is not my favourite. This type of chestnut would probably be delightful against a black base.

Thank you for sharing Cameron!

Bio

I love black and oolong (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted) teas, followed by green or red rooibos, herbals, whites, and subtly flavoured greens.

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, apricot, 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.

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