Courtney drank Spiced Pumpkin Pie by Bird & Blend Tea Co.

1443 tasting notes

Another from my swap with KittyLovesTea :)

I’m not so huge on chai, but I recently received another pumpkin chai from MirandaGou that I found quite enjoyable due to the much more subtle chai-ness of it. This one is similar. The chai aspect is still there but it’s so subtle I’m actually really enjoying it. The pumpkin is light in this tea, but still apparent, and there is also a sweetness at the end of the sip. The same sweetness is much more apparent in the scent than the taste. I would actually consider ordering this one for my own cupboard, though I have a feeling it was seasonal, as most pumpkin options are.

Thanks for sending such a generous amount of this delicious tea KittyLovesTea!

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).
