We know there is nothing better than a cuppa tea and cake (except perhaps a cake flavoured cuppa!)
This black loose leaf tea blend is inspired by the Victoria's sponge cake, which was invented by Queen Victoria herself! She found that afternoon tea just wasn't enough and needed a little extra - we like your thinking QV!
A perfect blend of vanilla & raspberry with black tea - I say!

This tea tastes very slightly like cake. Not too strong or offensive. I think I'd love it more if I hadn't tried a load more strong Bird & Blend flavours - I'd say is the perfect intro to the cake flavour teas without being too scary or offensive - but not really my personal thing as a big fan of Peach Cobbler/Red Velvet.

It’s nice
Tastes like sponge cake, smells a bit like vinegar I’m guessing cause of the raspberries, v nice overall.
