Reviews
Always reach for this!
"Delightful cherry/almond flavour that always makes me smile when I steep it at the office! Fruity, but mellowed out by the biscuit-y-ness for a cozy but fun cup. I am always reordering this one, a fan favourite around the friend group as well!"
Really tasty
"Lovely tasting tea, smells so strongly of Cherry Bakewell, tastes less strong than it smells, I like to add a small amount of honey to mine because have a terrible sweet tooth. My teenage daughter loves it on its own."
Good
"It was super yummy, I liked the tartness. I would say that despite smelling almonds it doesn’t taste like it at all and I personally really like almond but that’s a minor issue really. Also I tried the coconut macaroon one at the same time and that one is truly amazing"
A lovely brew
"It has quite an almond punch, this tea. Very nice. It's the first time I've bought from B&B but I'm looking forward to trying out other teas. It's quite pricy, so I see it as a bit of a treat."
"Intense yummy flavour"
Favourite cold brew
"I love this, my fave tea and perfect for coconut milk cold brew. No almond actually in it but the most beautiful sweet cherry flavour. Also great as a hot brew too. Gorgeous"
"Absolutely loved the tea, awesome flavours, but did think it would come in a tin! Pictures are misleading I feel."
Absolutely divine!
"As a first timer to Bird and Blend I chose Cherry Bakewell on a whim as it’s generally a flavour I enjoy. Kirsty in your Norwich store was super helpful! I added hot oat milk and a little honey and it’s so creamy and delicious! The flavour is just right, strong enough to taste but not at all overpowering. Added bonus that it looks so pretty as well! 🍒"
Delicious tea
"This is one of my favourites and now a regular purchase. It really does taste like Cherry Bakewell!"
Q&A
- What colour should this brew to? I got some of your teas for Xmas and I got this for Xmas and opened it today. I carefully followed the instructions. I used a small cup of 80deg water and 1 TSP of leaves and after 5 mins the water was slightly tinged. It smelt nice but tasted of nothing. I tried it in a diffuser and then even opened the diffuser and let it free brew but barely no colour still. I tried another TSP with boiling water and got some colour and slight flavour but barely anything. What am I doing wrong? Please help!
- Hi there, thanks for asking. Cherry Bakewell is a white tea which is very delicate so should be brewed at 80 degrees. It has a pale colour when brewed and a fragrant, but subtle flavour. It won't be a strong cuppa that you might be used to from a black tea. I'm a big fan of white tea, but know it doesn't pack the punch of flavour some people expect. Ian @ B&B
- Does this have caffeine in? :)
- This is a white Tea base Jamie so it will contain low levels of Caffeine. Andi @ B&B
