White Temple Tea – A.C. Perchs Thehandel

And another cold-steeped pitcher of this gone. Mostly posting this to say I steeped it for maybe 12 hours, rather than the usual 24, and that the longer steep definitely works better for drawing out the flavours. I use fairly little leaf, though, so I’m sure you can up that to balance it better. Still …

Blackberry – A.C. Perch’s

I had a tiny craving for this the other day, and one more just now. I was going to send the rest of it to a friend, but maybe just one more cup before it goes. Honestly, I have no idea why I enjoy this so much. A pretty basic berry-flavoured black? It’s an evil tea, though. …

Blackberry – A.C. Perch’s

Okay, so you know how frustrating it can be if someone keeps calling you the wrong name or constantly mixes you up with your sibling, or something along those lines? Right. Well, words have feelings, too. Pallet This is an image of a pallet: https://bit.ly/3emkvSz Palette This is an image of a palette: https://bit.ly/2NuuN7v Palate Yes. Mouthfeels. I bet …

Almond Tea – A.C. Perch’s

I am completely confused by this tea. Picking it out blindly (see my note on Vanilla from Fru P) I thought it was a pu’erh, or something along those lines – it definitely didn’t smell like almond, or even bitter almond. So imagine my surprise when I read the label and realized it was ACP’s …

Tea review

White Mulberry – A.C. Perch’s

Again, I cheated a little. I surreptitiously emptied the tiny tiny sample left of this that I’d been clinging to into the extra super pretty Lupicia tin I got in October. Poof, gone! Because thanks to T. and her unsurpassed Christmas gift giving skills I now have a full tin’s worth of this. I could not be …

Tea review

Green Summer Tea – A.C. Perch’s

So for my very first attempt with this tea, I (gasp) followed the instructions against both my better judgment and a Danish Steepsterer’s recommendation. There are at least two more brews to get out of this sample, so it seemed like a good place to start. Following the instructions in this case, resulted in an 80C-steep for …

Tea review

Bailey Cream – A.C. Perch’s

So this is Bailey Cream, not Bailey’s Cream, and in the English description on the website they don’t even bother with the capital letter. So what exactly is a ‘bailey’? At least the Danish copy is a little more forthcoming: Cremet Bailey the. So silly – why not just call it Irish Cream instead of doing a half-assed attempt at …
