Reviews
A great way to count down the days
"Me and my partner got this to share for our countdown to Christmas we even used matching mugs for our morning cuppa countdown. We absolutely loved it and had the most amazing December comparing tea reviews and trying with milk and without for some of them to compare the flavours with and without it was just lovely and we really loved it and cannot wait for it to become a yearly tradition."

Love the concept but disappointing
"I was disappointed by the range of teas in the caffeine free calendar. I know it's a Christmas calendar, but there were way to many similar teas containing cinnamon for me. I'm not a big fan of rooibos tea, but they are to be expected in a caffeine free calendar. However, I did think the rooibos teas polluted the other teas a bit. Some of the teas were great, however they were rare. Given the number of teas bird and blend have, it would have been nice to have more variety."

Lovely calendar
"My partner and I loved the selection of teas and having our Advent ritual of trying a tea and sharing our thoughts. Really brightened our December, and introduced us to loads of tasty teas!"

Christmas Present
"My husband got me this Advent Calendar more as a selection box, given that I got it on Christmas Day rather than for Advent. So far I am loving all the different blends, including ones that I wouldn't normally have picked. Hot Cinnamon was a taste of childhood, and brought back fond memories of my friends and I challenging each other as to who could keep the fireball gobstopper in their mouth the longest before it became to hot/spicy. Loving 'Snowball' just now. These teas are far superior to the herbal and fruit teas you get at the supermarket from well known brands and I will definitely order more once I have finished the calendar to decide which my favourites are, though it currently feels like choosing a favourite child 🤣."

A lot of teas just weren't to my taste, personally, a disappointment
"I must say its a very generous calendar, 2 bags per day is a great bonus. There were only a couple though that I enjoyed which I found disappointing. The year before I got another brand's calendar and the mix in favour of me (if that makes sense lol) was a lot higher, so I was hoping for the same here. That's the gamble you take, it just happened to be a more expensive one this time around."

Not for me
"My 14 year old daughter bought this for my birthday in November 25. Unfortunately she didn’t realise I don’t like rooibos tea, this calendar (caffeine free version) has 10 rooibos teas in it. All the other teas are affected by this as they get the flavour transferred from the rooibos because it’s such a strong smell. I was surprised there were no decaffeinated black teas in it but then I don’t think the company makes decaf black teas. I was sad for my daughter having spent her own money on this, luckily it became a bit of a joke each morning wondering if it was going to be something disgusting or something I could try."

So much fun!
"I loved this so much. It was a joy to open a new tea every day. I had one in the morning when starting work and the other before bed. Some weren't to my taste but that's bound to happen! The Hot Cinnamon was the only one I couldn't drink but my daughter loved it so we now have a large pouch of it. I will definitely buy the next one!"

Caffeine free Advent Calendar
"We were really looking forward to this advent calendar, we are both herbal tea lovers, however only a few teas have actually been tasteful (notable is gingerbread chail). We extended the brewing instructions as we love strong flavours so each was brewed for 10+ minutes but even with that they have disappointed again and again by being bland and weak. Unfortunately this means we won't be buying again."

Great Advent Calendar
"I'm loving my advent calendar so far. I disagree with the reviewer below who said the 'Great British Cuppa' was boring. It is head and shoulders above a regular supermarket teabag! However, I have knocked off one star for the addition of stevia in two of the teas so far. As soon as I tasted both I could tell they had been sweetened and both went straight down the drain. I don't have sugar in my tea and I cannot deal with artificial sweetness at all. I hope that this doesn't become a more common occurrence with future teas as it really is completely undrinkable."
