Food and Beverage Preferences | Omnivorous in general but avoids very creamy sauces on savouries and syrupy-sugar based confections. Loves summer fruit – particularly nectarines, cherries and fresh mango. Also pickles and chutney. Preference for Dark chocolate over milk. Loves good firm-fleshed fish like barramundi and swordfish. Not a cordial or soft-drinker, nor an alcohol drinker, though will try an occasional sip of something to know the flavour and is not against it in cooking. | Likes Pickles and vinegary things. A good mix of salad/veg with the meals. Generally willing to try new and different foods. Does enjoy meats and starches. Drinks mainly Cider but only in small amounts.

Gifts | Practical items are best. Or gifts to be on-gifted to the populous. There is a nice Japanese saying: “The best gifts are those which disappear” ie: are small, useful, consumable and don’t take up long term space. | Useful things. |
Other Preferences | Not fond of strong floral aromas. Likes spices and woody aromas but not *very* strong. | |
How they take their Coffee | Her Majesty is a social coffee drinker and generally wouldn’t have more than two coffees in a week. Tea is her thing – loose leaf by preference, Irish breakfast if in a bag. Smokey black teas are enjoyed. In the morning it’s black tea with a spot of milk, through the day she prefers loose leaf green tea: sencha, maicha, or shincha. Also Houjicha or Mugicha – she is happy to bring her own to share if it makes organisation easier. Not at all fond of T2 teas- their green tea tends to be old and their flavoured teas overly FLAVOURED.r | White with one sugar (and usually has 2 cups a day) |
Little things that make a difference | Cool Fruit tissanes through the middle of the day available for herself and attendants would be lovely. |
