Strong aromas of lavender insight a calming demeanour. The flavour is floral yet creamy, with hints of vanilla and a slight tang of bergamot. Possibly the most relaxing tea on the list and something that could easily be enjoyed instead of a wine!

This blend is gorgeous, doting candy like colours and an almond smell from the dry leaf, making the tea have a very festive Nutcracker feel to it. Steep at 100°C for a strong bitter tea, full of spices and a citrus hint, perfect for taking with milk. Steep at a lower temperature to produce a light fragrant tea with pirouettes of floral, citrus and powdered fruity notes.

I was super excited about try this as I had heard good things and been recommended it by a couple of people. The smell was like melted jelly cubes or if Crusha milkshake. The flavour was pleasant a nice mild strawberry that’s sweet and a little creamy. However, considering it has flavouring, I thought the flavours were a weak and could/should have been stronger.

A slight almond aroma, mingled with strong spicy notes, invites a very Christmassy feel. The flavour is a mild black tea, robust notes of spices and a gentle undernote of orange. Unfortunately, the almond doesn’t transfer from smell to taste, making it very similar to many other spiced Christmas teas. Overall, still an nice warming cup.

Whilst the smell on this one isn’t overly appealing, the taste is well crafted to replicate the flavour of milk chocolate orange perfectly, making it an enjoyable cup with combined citric and creamy notes.

A strong rooibos base, offering sweet and earthy flavours that enhances the initial deep dark chocolate hint, finishing in a citric note. Excellently captures the intended flavours.

A wonderful rich black tea blend that offers malty flavours combined with a smokey essence, making it a very warming and filling brew. Perfect on cold days, when all you want it a cosy fire.

Berry Blue starts with the plain taste of apple, transgressing into dominant musty hibiscus notes. It’s a little boring and basic, but this b*tch gets real in the finish, with a surprising tartness and blueberry note. A great flavour that’s hard to replicate and do well in tea, trust me, I’ve had some horrific ones. A well-rounded fruit tea.

Strong tea and a strong chai! The key notes aren’t those of a classic chai. Instead, this blend has strong notes of liquorice and fennel, coming through to create a more unique approach to this much loved winter warmer.
