    Reviews

    Berry delight

    "I got a small pouch after I was grieving the end of Notella Pancakes (it’s limited edition) and Black Forest was suggested to me at Birds&Blend. It was a perfect choice, love it, some deep berry notes with distinct chocolate. I absolutely love it with milk and any fan of dessert-type tea will love it too. I will be coming back to buy more."

    Zuzanna S. (5/5)

    Disappointed

    "I was recommended this tea by shop assistants as a replacement for red velvet, however it tastes nothing like it and I dislike the taste so much I'm not going to be able to use any more of the pack - I could only manage a few sips of the first cup I made."

    Lucy (1/5)

    Disappointing

    "I love Bird and Blend teas and have not found one I do not like . . . until now. I was recommended the Black Forest tea in your Cambridge store, as that flavour is one of my absolute favourites but I found it didn’t taste like Black Forest at all :( Tried different brewing times etc but this did not improve the flavour, sadly this one is just not my cup of tea!"

    Clare F. (1/5)

    A fan

    "Always happy to stock up on this. Makes me think of the Black Forest cake, but the flavor hints at that as opposed to being totally in your face. Love this!"

    Jen W. (5/5)

    Tasty

    "Taste like Black Forest gateaux for those of you old enough to know what that is!"

    Diane H. (5/5)

    Delicious!

    "This is my FAVOURITE tea. It smells mouthwatering. it's not the most powerful taste but it's a delicious black tea with a delicate fruity and chocolatey taste. Perfect for dunking biscuits :)"

    Flo (5/5)

    nice berry tea/replacement for a dessert

    "subtle taste, good smell, if you don't feel like having chocolate, this tea is what you need."

    Kat (4/5)

    Love it

    "Very nice tea, you definitely get the cherry and the chocolate is a very nice subtle flavour!"

    Joanna R. (5/5)

    Dessert in a cup

    "This is delicious with half a spoon of honey and plenty of soya milk. This works as a great substitute for dessert in the afternoon. It's chocolatey and fruity. I'd like a stronger taste of cherries, but nonetheless, this hits the spot when I want a sweet treat."

    Neela (4/5)

    I love it

    "Very tasty, I will buy it again"

    Q&A

    If i was to make this as a cold brew, what would be best to leave it brew in?
    Hi Joshua, thanks so much for asking a question! I love Black Forest cold brewed in lemonade, the extra sweetness and fizz are delicious. Don't hesitate to try different combinations of liquids though, you'll find your perfect cuppa! Ian @ B&B
