"I love the original hot cross bun blend with black tea but sometimes I can’t have caffeine or want to enjoy it later in the day/evening. So I was overjoyed that a rooibos version of this finally exists. Definitely one of my firm favourites! Thank you Bird and Blend for the rooibos version!"
"This tea tastes amazing. Now, everyone likes different things, but if you want a tea that tastes of love, this is it."
"A bit too much citrus but not fruity enough to drink black. Doesn’t really remind me of hot cross buns. Just vaguely sour. Not for me."
"I preferred the original version i tried of this a couple of years ago. I bought another packet this easter as i had run out and was surprised to find it was really smoky and not how i remembered"
"Not my favourite, but quite nice"
"Perfectly spiced! Only downfall is it's fine so some leaves pass through a strainer."
"I love hot cross buns and spiced teas/chai, but I hate lapsang souchong and didn’t realise it was in this tea!…. BUT it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, as there’s a nice touch of citrus at the end. But other than that I don’t get many other flavours so I probably won’t buy it again."
"Definitely my favourite Easter tea. A hug in a mug, very tasty and I am so glad I bought more."
"It's a fairly pleasant tea to drink, sort of like a hot cross bun. Although it has an unpleasant almond smell in the pouch. Not anywhere near as nice as the Hot Cross bun tea that Sainsburys make a few years ago. It also feels a bit misleading that it comes under the rooibos tea heading but it also contains 2 types of black tea."
"The perfect sweet tea and tasted awesome. Unfortunately I’m not very good at the perfect sentence, but suffice to say it hit the spot and was the perfect tea sensation."
