Oh wait, it’s still autumn…
This is one of my absolute favorites! I also really like Teeccino’s Butterscotch Cream Chaga Ashwagandha tea (which sounds very weird and/ or nasty, but it’s really very delightful)!
That actually sounds amazing and not weird/nasty at all! I don’t think I’ve had a Teeccino blend that I haven’t liked, but I admittedly haven’t tried most of their blends.

I love flavored black teas most of all, always with cream and honey. I enjoy floral and fruity teas, as well as flavored or scented ones. I’m not overly fond of green or white teas, but I’ve found a few that I enjoy.
I’m open to tea swaps and/or just sharing what’s in my tea cabinet! Please reach out if you see something I have that you’d like to try. I do my best to update my cupboard regularly.

Rating Scale
1-20: By far, one of the worst teas I’ve tasted. I most certainly will not finish my cup and will likely “gift” the rest to my sweet husband, James, who almost always enjoys the teas I dislike (and vice versa).
21-49: This tea is not good, but if I mix it with another tea or find another steeping method I might be able to finish it.
50-69: This one is just okay. I might drink it again if someone were to give it to me, but I probably won’t be buying more for myself.
70-79: This is a consistently good tea. It’s reliable but not necessarily special.
80-90: This one is a notch above the rest and I would gladly enjoy a cup of it any day of the week. I’ll likely be keeping this in my cupboard, but it isn’t one of my all-time favorites.
91-95: One small change and this tea would be perfect. I’ll definitely have a stash of this in my kitchen if you come over for tea.
96-100: No words can describe this tea. It’s an experience, an aha moment. Closed eyes, wide smile, encompassing warmth. Absolutely incredible. Perfect.
