A.C. Perch Advent 2021 Day 5

Ooh, this one came in a much bigger tin with a ribbon attached to reuse the tin as a wee ornament!

The scent is strongly cinnamon candy hearts, which makes me think of the cinnamon tea from H&S with a similar scents that tastes like liquified cinnamon hearts (yum).

The steeped tea smells very similar but mellowed out, with the cinnamon falling more to the background. The flavours are much more subtle and smooth, also I like that there’s coconut included in this blend – how unique. All of these teas are so smooth!

Preparation
185 °F / 85 °C 5 min, 0 sec 3 g 14 OZ / 414 ML

Those hot cinnamon teas from Harney are such a guilty pleasure for me ha ha. They’re so sweet and yet I still like them! XD

Courtney

They are so tasty haha. I haven’t had one in many years, but remember them fondly!

My less-teaist work friends are hooked on H&S Hot Cinnamon Spice—always some around the office.

Courtney

I bet I could get my colleague hooked on it. She’s obsessed with DT’s Birthday Cake haha. Our office (pre-covid) often smelled like it!

The ornament/tin sounds cute! Perfect for a tea lover’s tree!

Bio

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).
