"The Cambridge classic is a moderate to strong black tea that tastes slightly nutty, but with a cozy fall feel. I like to make it as a latte or pure tea with a touch of honey that highlights the sweet notes already there. Definitely love it! Perfect fall feel."
"Not sure how Bird & Blend did this but the scent of this tea is actually reminiscent of a new book! It's a strong tea but has a subtle taste, very comforting, so it has been added to my favourites list."
"I absolutely love this tea!! Such a lovely flavour with a subtle sweetness and smokiness and a lovely light tea for first thing in the morning - am so sad this is sold out! Please bring it back soon!"
"This tea has pleasant vanilla, almond notes. It's one of my favourite and I pick some up whenever I visit Cambridge."
"This is a really nice, smooth black tea with a hint of vanilla and sweetness. It is well balanced and the perfect cup of tea to have with a book on a rainy day. We stumbled across it by accident and what a happy accident that was."
"On opening the packet, I got a strong whoosh of vanilla. I was worried that was going to be it but on tasting, yes the vanilla is very strong, but there were also base notes and tastes of something resembling either oatmeal or rice pudding! I decided it was probably the latter so in a way it did remind me of learning. Not so much university but 1980s school dinners! Pretty decent but not an all time favourite."
"Unironically pairs really well with a good book - smooth and cosy and comforting."
"A very lovely, smooth, quite mellow black tea with just the right hint of vanilla. I wouldn't quite go so far as to say that it smells anything like books (new or old)."
"Really nice vanilla smell! I found the actual taste of the vanilla very subtle, and I could only get it to come through if I brewed for a shorter time (~3 minutes)."
"Average tea, quite weak and not very much tasting of vanilla. Would not recommend for the price and promise of stronger taste."
If you aren't 100% happy, we'll replace your blend.
