Reviews
Great brewed hot!
"I looove the smell of this tea, and the rhubarb and custard flavours really come through when it's brewed hot - it's really delicious! I'm not as in love with it in cold brew form - the rooibos flavour is still really strong, but I don't really taste much of the custardy flavours."
Very good and great taste
"Got this for my mum for her birthday as she loves rhubarb and custard sweets. She loved them as they tasted just like the sweet treat from when she was younger and gave her the greatest feeling of nostalgia!"
Any fan of the boiled sweets will adore this!
"Resemblance in flavours to the traditional rhubarb & custard boiled sweets is striking. If you’re a fan of the sweets (like me) you will adore this! Very refreshing cold-brewed in sparkling mineral water, perfect for keeping hydration up in this crazy hot weather, especially for someone like me who struggled with plain, tasteless water!"
Unusual but brilliant
"I bougjt this as I love the boiled sweets and the flavour is just right. Will be adding it to my growing list of cold tea flavours to buy again"
Excellent products
"I love the taste of the rhubarb and custard loose tea as a cold brew, tastes like it should and very refreshing."
Absolutely delicious!
"I went into the Lincoln store today and the guy in there was so friendly and helpful. I tried the cold brew rhubarb and custard that was made up with lemonade and it was absolutely delicious. I instantly bought a pouch, along with the bubblegum flavour!"
My Favourite!
"This is probably my favourite rooibos blend from Bird & Blend. The custard flavour in particular is so authentic to real vanilla custard. Often rooibos is highly spiced and is therefore best for autumn/winter, but this one is great all year round."
Amazing rhubarb flavour
"This really does taste just like a rhubarb and custard boiled sweet. Great both hot and iced"
Top 10 material!!!
"I love this tea! It works well whether it be hot, cold or something in between. If you're a fan of rhubarb then don't hesitate to buy this, you won't be disappointed by its rhubarby goodness!!!"
