Winter

Black Tea by T2

You’ll be wishing winter lasted all year round with this snuggly seasonal sensation. With notes of cinnamon and a subtle bite of ginger, this black tea will warm the cockles of your heart… beginning with your belly. Enjoy a steaming brew fire-side with wooly socks and a favourite old movie and savour the wonder that is winter.

Don’t let it steep too long, as thanks to the cardamom and pepper it gets bitter quickly (I’ve had to save it a few times with the addition of sugar, and I’m someone who likes a strong tea!). As a fan of winter in general, I had such high hopes for this tea – sadly they weren’t met. But I’ve come around to holding this tea in slightly better stead now I’ve learnt a quick infusion is the best for Winter.

Tried to pick this bad boy up again for a Hobart winter and I just can’t. It’s too bitter and I can’t be bothered trying to save it when there are so many other great blends on offer. I threw the last of it in the bin.

This tea really warms you up from the inside out. It’s the perfect balance – just enough ginger, just enough cinnamon, just enough tea. Perfect on cold nights (or anytime, really) with a hint of honey if you need it sweeter. Drink it while sitting on your couch in a knitted sweater, under a snuggly blanket, watching your favourite film. Amazing to drink while listening to Bon Iver.
