A.C. Perch Advent 2021 Day 2

This tea smells of jasmine and mint. The taste is very mellow. Subtle hints of mint and jasmine intertwined equally, not neither too strong. I understeeped this by one minute because 5 minutes seemed extreme for a green tea base. There is a slight peppermint coolness in the aftertaste, but it’s still mellow. I’m quite happy with this one.

Whaaaat never had jasmine?! It’s one of the few florals I really like. :)

Yes, I recommend the best: if you ever do a Teavivre order, grab a sample of any of their jasmine teas. If you aren’t a fan after you taste that, you probably just don’t need to drink jasmine teas. haha.

Yeah, you can’t go wrong with Teavivre’s introduction to jasmine. They and Verdant’s (now defunct) Jasmine Silver Needle got me hooked! :)

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to remember for my next Teavivre order!

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, herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens.

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).
