Bio
A few of my favourite things: animals, the ocean, science (I’m currently doing my MSc in biology), travel, all things summer, and of course – tea!
I love chatting biology, so feel free to ask me about what I study or follow my instagram @biologistcourtney!
I love black teas and this is what I’m usually drinking. I pretty well always drink my tea without anything added.
I’m also fond of herbals, oolongs, and subtly flavoured greens. Whites are also enjoyable, and I’m always looking for a replacement for my all-time favourite Butiki’s White Rhino.
Pu’erhs, rooibos (specifically red, I’m more open to green), honeybush, and matés are not my favourite. I tend to avoid them altogether unless others find them so amazing they shouldn’t be missed.
Likes:
Creaminess, toffee, cacao (true dark chocolate flavour), coconut (true coconut flavour), and rhubarb. I’m open to flavoured teas but they can’t be cloying or fake/candy like.
Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, bergamot, flowers (rose and jasmine), hibiscus is hit and miss.

I keep hearing good things about this tea! On the wishlist it goes.
Good news, I found a sealed sample of this in my straight tea samples box! Huzzah!
Yay! I hope you like it! It’s one I order annually (the largest size) and have for the last few years.
I just ordered this tonight based on your recommendation!
Oh my gosh – my recommendation? I hope you like it! :) It really is one of my favs (after Butiki, I had to find another Taiwanese Wild Mountain and this one was the only to come close).
