This premium tea brand offers artisanal blends in floral, fruity, dessert, wellness and spiced flavours. Her Majesty has white tea, jasmine and rosebuds; Gold Rush is a blend of green tea, chamomile, marigold rosemary; and Vanilla Waltz has oolong tea, strawberry, marigold and rose petals.
Their dessert teas are the most fascinating. If you like chocolate with some spice then their Choco Spice (oolong tea, chocolate, cinnamon, cardamom, cocoa nibs, ginger, hops) is for you and if you like sweet, woody flavour then try their Serendipity blend that is a blend of black tea, ginger, orange peel, clove, cinnamon, peppermint and goji berry.
