I’m pretty sure I haven’t written a note for this yet, because it’s so confusing. I tried it cold when I was in the US in the fall and it was so ragingly delicious I just had to get it. And then I tried it hot and it was just vile, which made me lose my momentum …

Cotton Candy – Della Terra Teas
Seriously, guys, you are all just a bunch of enablers. OMGsrsly peer pressured me into having a small evening foods, I made a pitcher of Jardin Sauvage because of TheTeaFairy, and then DTT posted about bringing old blends back into stock and I remembered this and absolutely had to have it. And yes, this sample is still alive …
Champagne grädd rooibos (Champagne & Cream Rooibos) – Tehörnan
You and me, Champagne & Cream rooibos, we’ve been together since fall 2012. And you know what? I’m still into you. You still taste and look pretty much like you used to – I’d like to think that’s mostly thanks to me, seeing as I’ve treated you lovingly, kept you in an air-tight tin in …
Peach Passionfruit Rooibos – Cornelia Bean
Because Steepster user Dexter3657 is beyond amazing, I received a whole package of additions to the Project Peach sample collection. I’m known as the insane tea person here (The cleaning staff allegedly talked about my tea cupboard for about three months before someone finally worked up the nerve to ask, ‘Is that really all tea, and WHY?’) …
Thé du Hammam Rooibos – Palais des Thés
I’ve been working most of the weekend, so I figured I’d take some time off before bed and watch a movie and drink a cup of tea. In terms of the tea, I’m trying to be a good decaffeinated Anna and drink my rooibos. I chose this, because it’s so luxurious and smooth and always …
Rouge Bourbon – Mariage Frères
When we were at Dagnino this weekend, I also picked up some samples (and possibly a tin of something, but I will admit to nothing). They sell single bags for €1, which is pretty fair if you just want to try something out. I’ve always been curious about this one, and I’ve been craving rooibos lately …
Havtorn-jordgubb (Sea-Buckthorn Strawberry) – Tehörnan
Okay, so it’s this one again. I’m getting ready for dinner while performing various menial tasks around the apartment and I needed something non-caf. My plan is to hit the rooibos stash pretty hard in the near future, both to achieve some downsippage, and to keep my caffeine intake low. I don’t quite see myself …
Champagne grädd rooibos (Champagne & Cream Rooibos) – Tehörnan
I will always have a special fondness for the Swedish (= German) champagne blends, even though I know how chemical they come off to other brave tea drinkers I have exposed to them. This is one of the few rooibos teas I will want to restock when I’m back in Sweden, and as you can …
Rouge Provence – Mariage Frères
I had Em and M (I did not do that on purpose) over for dinner and we had a pot of this because Em was all ‘no caffeine because sleep no caf no caf hyper’. And M, who stayed in my apartment while I was away was all, ‘okay so I found your tea stash and are …
Une autre idée? – Theodor
I wish I knew what the trick is to rooibos. What makes a good and a not-so-good flavoured rooibos so completely different? When I first had delicate, French-style rooibos I could barely believe it was the same thing as the cardboardy German stuff. Do they water the bushes with gold? Sing to them? It can’t …
