I absolutely loved this blend! The lavender comes through beautifully without being too heavy or overpowering — just the right balance. The elderflower is much more subtle, but I actually think that works perfectly, giving the lavender room to shine while adding a delicate, refreshing note in the background.
The scent is also really amazing and surprisingly strong — opening the packet is an absolute treat every time.
The tea itself is really good quality and brews exceptionally well, with a lovely full flavour. Even on the second brewing, it still had plenty of flavour, which is always a good sign.
This was a complete blind buy while I was on a little trip to Norwich, but I’m so glad I picked it up. A really lovely, well-balanced floral tea — definitely one I’d happily drink again. You won’t be disappointed!
