Peach, raspberry and rose was also an unusual combination that I really liked and would buy again, a light and fragrant brew with undertones of Turkish delight without smelling too floral.

Having created something warming for every type of hot beverage drinker for the first time this Christmas, Whittard has revealed the Tea & Infusion Advent Calendar, the Coffee Advent Calendar for Two and the Hot Chocolate Advent Calendar for two. Elsewhere there's a single green tea, six herbal teas (three of which are organic) and four fruit infusions. But there were plenty of new flavours to discover, several of which are now on my list to buy. Most notable were Banana Bread Chai, a Rooibos blend with cinnamon, ginger and freeze dried banana and green tea Treacle Sponge both of which tasted as hearty as the puds they were inspired by.Serving suggestion: Enjoy hot or iced. Make your coffee your favourite way as an americano, latte, mocha, cappuccino or your any style you prefer If you're looking for something fun that isn't go to eat too much into your Christmas shopping budget, for caffeine lovers at least, a tea or coffee advent calendar is a really good option - offering a warming brew and five minutes of much-needed me-time throughout December.

Admittedly we’ve broken the law by opening them before December, but how else were we going to do it? Our waistlines are proof of how seriously we take the job. Whether you’re a mature cheese connoisseur or helpless marshmallow addict, you’re sure to find something here to see you through December in delicious style. Verdict: After a busy year collaborating with everyone from Swizzles (to make Parma Violet tea ) through to Wallace and Gromit (no, really ), Bird and Blend are ending the year on a high with a fantastic calendar to keep everyone smiling throughout December - and with two teabags for each day you can even share the joy. There are four individually wrapped teabags in 23 of the drawers, and two, along with a little extra gift to start your journey, in the first drawer. It’s a tea lover’s dream…

While there were a few I'd quite happily never have again, apricot and banana in particular was a consistency that didn't appeal, overall this was a shift from the norm and something really fun for the festive season.
