A celebratory blend bringing together the best of both lovers, a marriage of tangy tarts and softs scents, blown raspberries, and rose beds, resolving into a gently amorous white tea blend.

TTB! The rose was too strong for my preferences. It just has a weird sour tang to me, and combined with the raspberry, it all ends up too tart and floral. I left the cup in the fridge for 48 hours, and then the flavors became much more muted and enjoyably fruity. But I wouldn’t want it again.
TTB 2025. Yay, another tea company I’m getting to try for the first time! This blend is extremely hibiscus heavy, to the point where I’d actually suggest a two-minute steep rather than the recommended 3 minutes. As it is, I’m just getting tart and sweet that’s reading as “hibiscus” and not much else. If I didn’t have other teas in this box that I still want to get to, I might play around with this some more, but it just doesn’t seem worth the time/caffeine at this point. I hope someone down the line likes it more, though, and does play with it!
Have I not tried this tea yet? I ordered it a while ago. Funny how some things quickly sneak into the back of your cupboard only to reappear and surprise you later. This one is quite a surprise! I think I knew it had hibiscus in it and one of my favorite B&B blends has hib (Hound on the Hunt) used in moderation, but this one features it prominently. First sip hit me in the face with hib (SUPRIIIIIIIIIIISE!!!) and it’s a little hard to taste my way around it. For me hibiscus has a tart aklaline metallic taste and that is all I’m getting in this cup. I wonder if my dislike of hibiscus is similar to people who have the cilantro aversion. If I keep sipping I can sort of numb out my hib receptors and taste a hint of rose and fruit behind it. This is shaping up to be a not for me tea although I would like to try it cold steeped before I totally give up on it.
Fortnum & Mason makes a Raspberry and Rose Florentine cookie that I hope will be gracing my tea table soon. It is only available part of the year, I think mostly around British Mother’s Day.
