Fresh aroma, with lemongrass, ginseng and ginger.
The taste is obviously dominated by the base green sencha tea, with hints of licorice, lemongrass and ginseng. Very refreshing.
But I think that using “matcha” in the name, when matcha constitutes only 2% of this tea, is a serious abuse.
Flavors: Citrus, Ginger, Lemongrass, Licorice, Summer

They do this a lot in their range. I tried their Elderberry & Echinacea tea recently, which has only 10% echinacea and 6% elderberry. I think they just cherry pick the most popular/best sounding ingredients to name the blend. It’s misleading, even if the tea does taste good :/
Yes, I completely agree. Trendy ingredient plus obligatory licorice and ginger.
I’ve wanted to try more of their teas for a long time but I couldn’t persuade myself to buy them, because I was sure that finishing the box will take me ages. Fortunately I came across a drugstore with around 30+ Pukka teas on display, where I was able to freely choose 20 bags for the price of one box. And it was a great solution, because now I’m able to taste a lot of teas, some bland, some intriguing, and I don’t have to deal with the whole packaging.
My overall rating is positive so far, but none of the teas seems good enough to buy a separate box.
