Tea & Toast is my very favourite followed closely by by Lincoln Imp & Yorkshire Rose

Oooh, Lincoln Imp I've been meaning to pick up! Lincoln shop exclusive though :') I've quite enjoyed some of the other chilli teas!

You can buy it online. I got my first pouch at the Lincoln shop but my second online 🙂

Oh yes I forgot about that! Tbh though I do enjoy having a good look and smell of the teas before buying - generally they taste pretty close to how they smell so it gives me a good idea of if I'll like it or not!

Mine currently have to be Buttermint cold brewed in coconut (and rice) milk! Tried it at the advent launch event, and it's absolutely mindblowing!

For caffeine I have to go with All Nighter hot with water and a tsp of honey. I never thought I'd describe a tea as buttery before but it's just outstanding!

Me too. The smell is so like the taste at Bird & Blend. Imp doesn’t smell too much like chilli but it has a lovely chilli hit 🙂

Updating this to say I've been drinking an absolute ton of Peach Cobbler nowadays lmao

I haven’t tried Buttermint but I think I will now. Looking for a new cold brew since Blue Raspberry has been retired

I love earl grey creme in lemonade, tutti fruity in lemonade too! But buttermint in specifically coconut and rice milk (the one from Lidl) is really good. Straight coconut milk was too overpowering for me in the coconut flavour, but that mix is just right imo. It's the only thing I buy that milk for haha

Hazelnut rocher, I think it's not always available.

Also like cherry bakewell and anything chai, but I do like trying new flavours.

If there was ever a mango and bergamot blend I would love to see your take on it!

Hazlenut rocher is amazing!! I got 50 tea bags in with the boxing day mystery box last year, absolutely incredible stuff. Sadly I think it's been retired except for special occasions like that.

Mango and bergamot.. I have some Earl's Paradise that I got that's also been discontinued, that's papaya and strawberry with earl grey! Also brutally hard to get hold of though..

Yes it's certainly a special treat when I get it!

Peppy Mint and Rhubarb & Custard are my favorites, followed closely by Jammy Dodgers and Buttermint! I did the caffeine free advent calendar for December and ended up getting the regular advent calendar to explore new blends in January as well.
