Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - African Rooibos

This one's a divisive brew; some hail it as the ultimate tea scent-masterpiece, a truly unique and sophisticated aroma. Others, however, are left scratching their heads, finding it anything from 'musty' to 'baby wipes'. Love it or hate it, it's definitely a conversation starter.

Our Verdict - Caliber Declaration

This one is a divisive take on a classic, leaning more into its warm, spicy side. Expect a sophisticated, somewhat flat aroma that might not thrill purists but offers a unique, dressed-up feel.
