drank L'Automne by Fauchon
775 tasting notes

This is the only rooibos tea I’ve ever found that I truly enjoy.

This one is getting quite old, and I’m pretty sure Fauchon doesn’t even have this tea anymore (which is terribly sad considering I’d order it regardless of what the shipping may be).

This one has that rooibos base, but it’s not medicinal at all. There’s a lovely subtle hint of orange that mixes well with the base and hints of milk chocolate and cream as well.

Unfortunately I don’t think Fauchon even ships outside of Europe anyway. I remember there was some website we used to stalk for Fauchon teas, as they had them every once in a while.

It’s such a shame. I actually had a friend pick this one up years ago when she went to Paris. :(

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.
