Courtney drank Tisane de Noël by Dammann Frères

1443 tasting notes

2021 sipdown no. 4

This was a sample sent in our DF order.

There a whole cardamom pods in this mix! This one is very Christmas-spicy, which I’m enjoying. Even as a tisane, it’s very “full” feeling and enjoyable. The red peppercorns are also a nice touch to add that spiciness and heat.

Sadly, as I continued drinking this one, I started to get a queasy stomach. I looked over the ingredients and I can’t figure out what might have caused that — maybe the ginger? Many things meant to calm stomachs often upset mine haha.

Preparation

Boiling 6 min, 0 sec 14 OZ / 414 ML

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).
