Courtney drank Nuit à Versailles by Dammann Frères

1443 tasting notes

DF Advent Day 18 (18-Feb 2022)

This one smells lovely steeped! I’m getting kiwi with hints of bergamot and rose.

This reminds me of a candy, but it’s not really candy-like (I seem to be lacking in actually describing things as of late). The green tea is a nice base for these flavours. I really liked this tea, despite failing to describe it in any way that will be helpful if I need to look back XD.

Preparation

175 °F / 79 °C 3 min, 30 sec 3 g 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).
